King, a 2024 seventh-round pick of the Packers out of Penn State, has spent the entire season on Carolina's p-squad. He spent last year on Green Bay's p-squad.

Sunday will be his NFL regular-season debut.

I think the offensive approach/QB decision-making was flawed

The team has done a lot of things well behind the scenes and they have generally improved in a lot of areas on the field (defense - talent and coaching, development, rookie class, etc), but you can’t just put your head in the sand.

One way or another, there needs to be changes to offensive infrastructure (fwiw that’s life in an NFL offseason anyway). Even if a playoff run happens, the whole point of this slower, thoughtful process (which does have merit) is to not overachieve, accept, and then sink.

The #Panthers are a 6-6 slinky of a team because consistency can’t be forged when chemistry is fleeting and fledging.
