With everything that's gone on this season, Panthers still control their destiny?

Yep, you heard that right, panthers can still win the division, with a little help we could still win with another loss... That's how good of a position we're in.

And it's all because we tied with the Bengals.

We still have to play the Saint and Falcons in their houses, and the saints and falcons still have to go for round two themselves.

Now do I think we can pull this off and make the playoffs? Hell no. Honestly I doubt I'll watch another game for the rest of the year after what happened yesterday.

I guess you could say at this point I am finding humor in this disaster from the NFCS.

Yeah me and my boss were doing the math in our office a few minutes agoo

 

If we win out.. 8-7-1  and the best NO and ATL could do is 9-7 and 8-8 respectively... So winning out means we just need winner of the NO/ATL game to take another loss somewhere. and BAM NFCS Champs and Playoffs..

 

 

Now will that happen... nope. But those of us Dreamers like to dream.

We don't though

if we win out, Falcons and saints will have 1 more loss, + 1/2 credit for the tie means we will win the division because of that. If we win out, we win, with the plus 1 loss comes from the fact the Falcons are actually going into the meat of their schedule now... And the saints have the Ravens this week and the steelers next.

Everything is actually in our favor if we get our poo together after the bye

Why the fug would anyone want the Panthers do go to the playoffs? They'd get blown the fug out AND Rivera would be back.

I always feel I should root for my team to win but in looking at the bigger picture I feel there will be more wins in the future with less wins now.

If we win out and NO loses only to us and ATL loses to us and NO here is what I have for standings:

 

NO   9 7      0.563
CAR 8 7 1   0.531
ATL  8 8      0.500
 
 
However if NO and ATL both lose next week then we do control our own destiny...win out and it would be:
 
CAR 8 7 1 0.531
NO   8 8     0.500
ATL  7 9    0.438

Idc losing is more Beneficial at this point

I was for losing to get Cam/Luck and for losing to get Star even though we got him at 14 anyway. If your coach is a lame duck AND you're mathematically eliminated, then lose away. But the playoff experience is worth the 10 slots and GMan owns the draft.

And I am a broken record on this but the 7-9 Seahawks said their playoff win gave them the mojo to win it all a few years later.

Not to mention bragging rights, first time back to back winners, etc.

Losing is NOT more beneficial.

Anything can and often does happen. The Lions who we beat may be a top 2 seed and the Cardinals are decimated with injuries with a backup at QB. After beating the circus Cowboys here in the playoffs as we always do that may be the path. We may even get a rematch vs the 49ers HERE in the NFCCG!!! You never know.

    • to all the Low-T Betas crying about "pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza" / "we’ll get embarrassed if we admit we like it" stop the nonsense stop the embarrassment go back to watching The View with your girlfriend’s other boyfriend while eating your dry cheese-only slice like a toddler Pizza culture has not sniffed innovation in nearly a decade, a total abyss of pathetic, boring, flavorless display of culinary cowardice Do I think pineapple pizza is going to replace pepperoni and conquer the world, absolutely not Would I be excited to proudly order it anyway? hell yea and deep down you’d give up making out with your first cousin on the weekend to take a bite of a hot, fresh, pineapple slice We need to normalize pineapple on pizza to set the blocks for the future of flavor We have an up-and-coming generation of taste buds who need guidance a STUD of a topping that is COOKING a wrecking ball of sweetness that hits like a freight train a stud salty counterpart like ham or bacon to balance it a young buck of creativity for toppings that is just getting started a true #1 cheese holding it all together a solid crust foundation a sauce that is progressing It’s not perfect, it’s not traditional, but I am beyond elated with the direction pizza is going I will be in the pizzeria cheering on the boys stacking pineapple on that dough and so should you And for the national mouth breather association who will undoubtedly poo and flame everything I post… have a blessed day
    • I can't defend Richardsons failure to this point. And he is still as young as the rookies being taken this past season. I think he still could pan out.  XL is another case. I think he looked the part but some of his times and film showed he struggled separating and the fact he never showed up being good before his 5th season. Laad was my obvious choice at that point(tho I was banging the table to trade up and grab Thomas Jr when he fell into the 20s). Ladd didn't lack athleticism and had the route running and mental part to boot. Didn't see a weakness in his game expect he was smaller..
    • Surprised?  I wouldn't be surprised. I think you are missing my point. I'm not saying the Panthers won't extend Bryce.  I'm just saying that decision won't be based off one game.  This game is not going to decide if Bryce is released or given a 5-year deal.  Like, those are crazy extremes. The people who will be surprised are those who think the Panthers losing this week will automatically mean Bryce is gone in the offseason or won't be starting again for us next year, since that seems to be the only reason people are wanting them to lose.  Which is why I think it is silly to be rooting for that.  Because we can all pretend we know what the FO is thinking, but we don't.  So why not just enjoy the moment and the possibility of hosting a playoff game?  Like, what's the point of being a fan of the team if we can't even enjoy moments like this?  Just because of something that MIGHT happen in the offseason?
