Which wild card teams do you not want to face in playoffs

I don't fear the Viking if we are playing at BOA.

As far as who I would fear the most even playing at BOA it would be the Eagles/Cowboys. Only one of those teams are making the playoffs is the best news but still they are both playing really good ball right now. The Vikings have been playing well but I just don't see them being able to win on the road in the playoffs with Jackson or Gus at QB.

The only team that the Carolina Panthers should be afraid to face in any of the post season games is the uninspired, unprepared Panthers that laid a couple of eggs this year (particularly in Tampa). When on our game, no team can touch us.

Never been a problem under Fox in the post season.

Dallas would worry me the most with Barber, our secondary communication problems and what looks to be a VERY good defense.

All unprepared teams for a game are just those whose weaknesses have been taken advantage of. Our offensive weaknesses are blitzing defenses and hugh run stopping DT. I can see vikings and dallas as serious threats. If we can avoid these two teams on our road to the super bowl, so much the better.

Dallas

Philly

Bucs

Falcons

Vikings

Bears

For me its the vikings (gets delhomme rattled and only team I feel that can really stifle our running game) and the cowboys (their defense is probably the best in the nfc)

Honestly, none of these teams scare me, if we get to play them at "The Bank"

After the win next Sunday night...

I can't say I think the Falcon's aren't playing good football right now. It's a divisional game and we know each other very well. I wouldn't be over confident on this one.

Dallas, because of all the freakin Dallas fans that some how fill the stadium. Hell, I saw a few Dallas jerseys at the game yesterday. Had one guy in front of me with a jersey on and holding a sign up that said "Go Cowboys." The people that had those seats showed up and he had to move. I think we can beat them, but I'd hate to see the home field advantage go away because they have more fans in the stadium than we do.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
