Give your honest opinion. Carolina's record this season, post it.

[panthersphan 280]

I believe we're a 7-9/9-7 team but can top out at 10-6 and get a Wild Card spot.

We're on our way, but were certainly not there yet.

OL is a huge concern for me, let alone a suspect secondary (though I think they'll be good enough, and much improved from a season ago.)

[CCS 1,244]

I've been conditioned to expect the worst. Anything less than 8-8 will be a massive disappointment though.

[carpanfan96 1,438]

10-6

 

The defense takes some pressure off the offense and on offense Dwill has a good season and a WR or two not names Steve Smith step it up and have good seasons. Cam will be Cam. 

[logic1977 226]

10-6. Rivera shows he can be a good HC and Cam sheds any leadership doubts

[bigdog10 2,121]

I had 9-7 before preseason. I will say 8-8 now due to bad oline play

[xclr82xtc 212]

7-9 with a bad O-line and an offense that displayed very little productivity in the preseason.

 

That being said, if the Panthers somehow manage a win against the Seahawks, which would be an upset, they could very well gain some huge momentum and win a couple more games this season they might not have otherwise.

 

This team has not fared well against teams they're not supposed to beat. They have no experience winning games they're not supposed to and don't know how it feels to knock off the big team on the block. Once that happens and they believe they can beat the best teams in the league, things might change in Charlotte

 

i can agree with that

 

if we win seattle, then bills are next and thats a walkover.. that puts us playing the giants hard before a bye. 3 wins right of the bat would be helluva momentum generator

[mwright350 592]

As much as the fan in me wants to say 10-6 or better until I see an OL gel and what our receivers not named Smitty do in real action (along with how Shula runs the O) I am predicting 9-7.

 

But that's a 9-7 that I could easily see being 10-6 or better if we play to our potential and our coaches manage game decisions well.

[panthernation23 21]

1-15 clowney sweepstakes amirite? then we go on to win 10 superbowls in a row

[Zithers 478]

been going 8-8 for awhile

 

 

split with whole division

beat vikings, bills, dolphins, jets, cardinals

lose to patriots, 49ers, seahawks, rams, giants

[SevenSixes 107]

My opinion...

My opinion is that I'll have a lot better idea of how good or bad this team is in about three weeks or so.

 

..does that make it a post-diction instead of a prediction?

 

In all seriousness, I consider the Giants game to be a must-win for Ron.

 

Getts won't respect Ron unless he bloodies Tom's nose a good one.
