The Carolina Panthers entered the 2023 NFL Season with high hopes and expectations.
They spent a significant amount of capital to acquire Bryce Young with the No. 1 overall draft pick.
While Young has shown flashes throughout the year, the Panthers haven’t quite found a stride in year one.
They are currently tied with the Arizona Cardinals for the worst record in the league and are coming off a primetime loss to the Chicago Bears.
After this game, Adam Thielen had a few choice words for his team’s performance, saying, “We’re not hitting on any cylinders,” adding, “It’s embarrassing” via reporter Joe Person.

The Panthers did not score an offensive touchdown in their loss to the Bears.
Their lone touchdown came at the hands of a punt return, and the rest of their points came from field goals.
Not scoring an offensive touchdown is a tough pill to swallow for any team, especially one that has struggled like the Panthers have this year.
Thielen was brought in as a veteran receiver hoping to help Young acclimate to the league.
While he has provided great sparks this season, Thielen alone hasn’t been able to help the Panthers win games.
It appears that a few things are holding this team back from greatness, at least in 2023.
Their playoff chances are effectively over for this season, and Thielen and his teammates might already be looking to 2024.
They will want to build on their mistakes from this year, hoping that Young’s first season was just a fluke.
