3. Carolina Panthers

Pro Football Focus rated the Panthers’ defense the second best in Week 1 with a 21.9 rating and gave their pass coverage top honors. Carolina’s cornerbacks yielded just 28 yards after the catch to the Buccaneers.

I'm trying to figure out why everyone is so high on the Eagles.

 

This.  They looked like the worst team in the league in the 1st half.  One of my best friends is a HUGE Eagles fan and he even says that he thinks they're a middle of the road team right now.  He got a good chuckle out of ESPN's power rankings himself.

CBS also has us 18th in power rankings- up 4 spots from last week but still behind the Jets.

 

Just goes to show that it's too early in the season to sort out who's good and who ain't.

    • One thing I didn’t consider is how thin this draft is at quarterback. That’s going to drive up the market for backups and borderline starters like Willis, Jones, and Jameis Winston. Because of that, we’ll most likely be priced out of the market for this tier of backup. 
    • We've already beat the #1 seed twice, why not one more? (Packers and Rams were both #1 seed at the time we played)
    • My determination has come down to this. Based on recent QB history, has Bryce's improvement warranted 50m per season? Lamar is the only original team QB to play on his 5th year. The others took major deals at the end of the 3rd, before or just after the option was signed. Chances are, we're getting asked for the same.  I haven't rooted for Bryce to fail. I've rooted for him to succeed so big that them signing that extension would give me no worries about our future at QB at all. We haven't seen that level of play consistently that this year. We haven't seen it in the past 6 games.  We're about to be at a threshold with Bryce and I worry about what this front office will do. We have a history of bad decision making and Morgan has been part of that group making those decisions. I don't want Carolina in the same boat Arizona and Miami are right now. It has nothing to with being right. It has to do with wanting to win for more than a single season. We've never had back to back winning seasons. Faith in their abilities is not warranted at this point.
