The Carolina Panthers faced a devastating start to the NFL season, suffering a 47-10 defeat against the New Orleans Saints. Despite a few commendable performances from Mike Jackson and Eku Leota, the team's overall performance, particularly from quarterback Bryce Young, was disappointing.

Hall of Fame defensive end Julius Peppers shared insights on Twitter, reminding fans to remain patient as the franchise navigates this challenging beginning under rookie head coach Dave Canales. The team's uphill battle for improvement is just starting, with the tough circumstances possibly worsening before they begin to get better.
