"I expect the 2014 Carolina Panthers to win 13 games, win the NFC South title, and earn a playoff bye. Low projections should have the Panthers winning 10 games and making the playoffs. With the talent Carolina has the Panthers could send as many as eleven players to the Pro-Bowl; seven could earn All-Pro honors"

...

The offensive line will not be one of the league’s best entering the 2014 season, but it will be solid, and has potential to be very good as the year goes on. As with any team, the Panther’s offensive line needs to stay healthy, but it’s crucial for Carolina, which doesn’t have a very deep line

...

If the offensive line can stay healthy and build chemistry as the year progresses, and Newton’s new receivers turn into weapons, Newton could have an MVP- type season.

...

Benjamin is looking like a true weapon... but the real focus should be on the tight ends. After coming off a great season in 2013, one in which he led the Panthers in receiving, Greg Olsen could be the focus of the passing game, or at least the tight ends in general could be. Olsen was joined this season by free agent tight end Ed Dickson, in addition to second year tight end Brandon Williams and fourth year tight end Richie Brockel, who’ll help the Panthers in these double-tight end sets regaining popularity."

Who is this guy?

 

Personally, I don't mind the media dogging on us.  Historically, we've always been much better off as underdogs.

Carolina Panthers Lead Correspondent for isportsweb.com.

Fantasy sports taught me how to be objective. The AL East taught me sports is a business. Living on both coasts taught me that people truly do hate Tom Brady. Golf taught me there is athletic life after high-school football.

      I try to keep up and project the roster with color-coded charts.  You can see priorities and gauge who has the best chance of making the roster--you can see the priorities as well.  Here, Yellow is a 2025 draft pick, green is an undrafted free agent, and orange is a free agent. The depth chart will obviously change and I am not sure about roles (positions in all cases), so that is not the real issue at this time, but yellows and oranges show how the team focused on which aspects of the defense:     In the front 5, there were 3 draft picks, 3 free agents (not including players we re-signed), and two undrafted players signed. In the back 6, there was 1 draft pick and 2 free agents (LB, S), and four undrafted free agents. The undrafted free agents are always long shots, but by identifying them, you can tell which longshots might make the roster.

      The rise of analytics in sports goes back to the use of sabermetrics in baseball.  The ironic thing is that the whole point of Bill James work was to objectively figure out each players contribution to to a team's wins throughout the season.  This is possible in baseball because each at bat is essentially a 1v1 with an objective outcome.  Applying statistical averages also works a lot better with hundreds of plate appearances over 162 games a year. PFF grades plays subjectively, and then puts them into buckets.  They then create different statistics based on those buckets.  That's all well and good and I'm not saying it's useless.  But calling it analytics like it's some kind of objective science is a far cry from what is actually going on.
