The NFC South Is Wide Open

A note to all.

 

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints, and yes our Carolina Panthers are all flawed.

 

So tonight, "How about them Cowboys!".

 

Still a long way to go Panther fans.

 

If Rivera can get the Hardy situation behind us and the team all pulling in the same direction all is not lost.

It starts this week with Chicago. This is a must win game for us.

It is. Not only because it is a winnable game but also it is a home game.

We win 5 out of 6 home games left on schedule and get wins at Minny and Atlanta, that gets us to 9. Just need to sneak one more road win somewhere like GB and we get 10

There's two ways this season will unfold.

1-

Carolina continues to treat Cam Newton like Trent Dilfer & we finish under .500

2-

Carolina takes off the handcuffs & uses their superstar QB & runs away with the Division

This "take off the handcuffs" thing needed to die last season. Sticking in the pocket is part of what Cam does. He doesn't magically take off at the first hint of pressure. He goes through his reads and then takes off if he can't find an option. It's always been that way and if you believe otherwise you've just bought into some kind of narrative about Newton without ever actually watching how he plays. He isn't handcuffed, the pocket is just collapsing faster than he can get through his reads. He's reacting to the pressure the same as always. There are no handcuffs. There is just a piss poor line.

I love me some Cam, but to suggest that we're restricting him is backwards. His game hasn't changed and isn't being held back. The line simply isn't holding so that he can play his way. That needs to change, quick.

I completely agree with you. We still have a chance to make it to the playoffs. We just gotta be more consistent as a team and stop shooting ourselves in the foot. At the end of the day, I still believe we have the best team in our division. It's time for the sleeping monster to wake up. This Chicago game is huge for us and could determine what kind of team we have on our hands for the rest of the season.

    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
