Don't Fret the league is weird

Recommended Posts

This past 4 weeks has seen some of the oddest wins, blowouts, and matchups. Teams that weren't suppose to win are, teams that are suppose to go to the super bowl are loosing, and every division is open. I'm not worried about the panthers yet because so far this season nothing makes sense. Who would have thought TB would kill the steelers after they tore us up, or the saints, patriots, and 49ers are sucking.

Didn't get to see the Pats/Chiefs game...and haven't really seen any other blowouts except for ours the last two weeks and the Saints/Cowboys. 

 

 Did the loser of the other blowouts of the last 3 weeks,  have the refs effortlessly helping the other team move up and down the field,  with flag after flag?

This all results from teams being not allowed to practice hard like they want to anymore because of the new rules. Not to mention all the holding calls on defense that extends drives. The watering down of the NFL is complete. Congratulations Goodell, I'm surprised you even have a job still.

Oh yeah.   I know there has been a lot.  I just have not personally watched those games.       With the large amount of blowouts happening this season..  I'm wondering how many of them have had help from the refs enforcing tighter rules.

 

We had close to , if not over,  300 yards in penalties over the last two weeks.    That many flags,  and that many Defensive/offense PI calls,  can lead to blowouts.

    • Well, everyone is a critic.  not much meat on the bone here in analysis but if the team needs motivation … lol   I have also heard a lot of talking head or two say that ‘Young is not in the same class as most of these teams and that in 12 of the 17 games he is the lesser QB   BR write up below  2025 record: 8-9 Last season, the Carolina Panthers made the playoffs for the first time since 2017. They won the division. Bryce Young made strides, throwing for 3,011 yards, 23 touchdowns and 11 interceptions with a 63.6 percent completion rate. Wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan won the 2025 Offensive Rookie of the Year award. In free agency, the Panthers signed edge-rusher Jaelan Phillips and linebacker Devin Lloyd to bolster their middling defense. Carolina can win with complementary football if the offense continues to trend in the right direction. In 2026, Carolina will play the AFC North and NFC North on a first-place schedule, which includes matchups against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles, Chicago Bears, Denver Broncos, and the Seattle Seahawks. The club will have a much tougher 17-game slate than it had last year, which may lead to regression. The Panthers aren't on the same level as the league's top teams. We'll see the gap between them and division-winning clubs from the previous season. 2026 projection: 6-11  
    • If someone key is hurt and your bye week helps you by not forcing you to play without them, it is at a good time.  No way to know about that ahead of time.   I would concede that with 17 games and let’s say you are playoff bound, you would love to have it late  
    • Hate it for him personally and hope he recovers well. But honestly, reaching an injury settlement and moving on would probably be a best case scenario for the Panthers. This signing always felt like a desperate knee-jerk reaction to losing out on Milton Williams. Williams was a logical scheme fit while Wharton just wasn't. He's best used as a rotational interior pass rushing specialist in an even front. He's way too small to play the nose in a 3-4 and he lacks the length and juice to play the end. Healthy he's a nice roster piece in the right scheme at the right price but we overpaid him to play him in the wrong scheme. The signing just never made any sense to me and I said so at the time.
