Week 2 Power Rankings

[beastson]

I seriously dont understand how we're not in top 10 across the board

 

That is amazing to me. This is why I skip these threads

It shows their records and week one scores.

Yes but it says in the header that this is the beginning of the season rankings and notice how none of the actual talking points reference what actually happened in week 1

To be fair, some of the ones where we're still ranked toward the bottom had us rise like seven spots. Yes, the original ranking was off, but they can't move us from like, 25 to 5 for example.

Lazy reporting, either way.

Exactly.  That would be like admitting they were completely wrong.  A strong showing with Cam at the helm will show an even more significant jump.

When they haven't updated it? It's only the fans here who are presenting it as such. Besides going into week one everyone on here thought the oline will be bad. Let's wait and see when it's updated before we crucify them.

Not crucifying them, but all the other major outlets have updated.  They're lagging.

The one I am referring to, is Fox Sports, and it has been updated. I talked about the good play of Benjamin, and the last line referenced the poor play of our revamped offensive line.

If someone had actually watched the game, they should have been praising the surprisingly good showing of our O-line.

That's the reason for the lazy reporting and a copy and paste media comments,

Peter King is setting up the story line to trash Newton if he loses next week....

It's just been updated. We are currently at #8. I'm on my phone so someone will have to post it.

They do say that we prove doubters wrong.

You're wrong actually. It was just updated and there was no mention of offensive line struggles.

Fox updated it.

8. Carolina Panthers

"The Panthers proved the offseason doubters wrong by winning in a similar fashion to many of their wins from 2013. They boast one of the most dominant front sevens in the league in any defensive scheme. The additions of Kelvin Benjamin and Jerricho Cotchery will keep the passing game relevant."

[Pox 08]

King is probably the only analyst that actually watched our game.  Sadly.

 

 

Traveling to TB... playing a division rival in 100+ degree humidity.. a  rival that most of the media pundits were kissing the ass of this entire offseason...and had a crushing defensive performance and won the game WITH our back-up qb in there.

 

 

Media loves good offensive/poor defensive games though.   "High scoring games".

My bad. Thanks for update. I guess I was thrown off by a media outlet actually giving our WRs props before the season started.

All the doom and gloom "the Panthers are going to suck because they lost all their receivers from 2013" , has got some of us on the defensive.
