We only beat one team with a winning record this season

on our current 4 game win streak, we beat:

7-9 Browns

7 9 Saints

6-10 Falcons

2-14 Bucs

earlier we beat:

11-5 Lions (in Week 2, on the road)

5-11 Bears

2-14 Bucs

and we tied the 10-5-1 Bengals

because of the division we play in, we jumped 7 teams with better records and get to go to the playoffs:

10-6 Eagles

9-7 Houston

9-7 Chiefs

9-7 Chargers

9-7 Bills

8-8 Dolphins

8-8 49ers

Our opponents outscored us 374 to 339 this season, for a neg 35 point differential, which is #23 in the NFL (bottom ten), behind:

155 - Patriots

140 - Seahawks

138 - Packers

128 - Broncos

115 - Cowboys

107 - Ravens

89 - Colts

74 - Eagles

72 - Chiefs

68 - Steelers

65 - Texans

54 - Bills

39 - Lions <-------------we beat them

21 - Bengals <-------------we tied them

15 - Dolphins

11 - Cardinals <-------------not very good

0 - Chargers

neg 18 - Vikings

neg 20 - Giants

neg 23 - Saints <-------------we went 1-1 against them

neg 30 - Rams

neg 34 - 49ers

neg 35 - Panthers

neg 36 - Falcons <-------------we went 1-1 against them

neg 38 - Browns <-------------we beat them

our QB, Cam Newton, is bottom half of the league across the board:

#19 in passing TD (tied with Kyle Orton and Alex Smith)

#21 in passing ypg

#21 in passing yds

#26 in passer rating

we have the #19 scoring offense and the #20 scoring D, both bottom half of the league

so are you sure this is the season you want to proclaim Gettleman a genius? Why not just wait until we are one of the better teams in the league? If/when that happens, you won't have to trip all over yourself trying to make Gettleman look good, we will all already be happy then

are you sure keeping Rivera as our coach is a good idea? And now there are even people coming out praising Shula. Seriously? The guy has been a lousy OC every year he has been an NFL OC, including this year.

We only beat one team with a winning record this season

EDIT:

as a reminder, we have had better records than the one we had this

year.

1996 - 12-4

1999 - 8-8

2003 - 11-5

2005 - 11-5

2006 - 8-8

2008 - 12-4

2009 - 8-8

2013 - 12-4

People here act like we're the Raiders and are amazed that we had a

7-win season, like we did in 1995, 1997, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2007, 2012

the only times we failed to get 7 wins in our 20 seasons in franchise

history were:

1998 - 4-12

2001 - 1-15

2010 - 2-14

2011 - 6-10

We did what we needed to do in order to win the division, that's what matters.

 

My concern right now is beating Arizona, I think some people here are downplaying them. Don't get over confident guys.

 

Thank you! I don't like all these people (including media) favoring us like we are going to roll over the Cardinals. They have a nasty defense that could win it for them on its own. And I'm pretty sure Lindley just passed for over 300 yards so obviously he isn't that bad. I'm just staying at a medium level, not too high and not too low.

With a healthy QB and line.

 

And a aggressive, young secondary that is balling. The defense as a whole is coming together. Not to mention a healthy J-Stew (knock on wood) running wild. Pair that with what you said and I think we have a damn good chance. Gonna be tough against that defense though.

My brother is a Cardinals fan living in Phoenix. He's already conceded the loss.....their QBs suck ass.

      The Panthers have an effort problem

      By CPcavedweller · Posted

      To me, this seems like they feel they aren't going to be competitive. I can't help but go back to Bryce. Good guy, but he doesn't inspire people to give it their all. He isn't a "leader" that people look to. There is no Smith, Delhomme, Kuechly, Cam, etc. coming in that door.  It has to be Bryce, but biologically speaking, how often is the shortest man in the room going to command the kind of respect that will drive people? It just isn't. That isn't how we are wired. That isn't how any living animal on Earth today is wired.  I just follow the science guys.

      Vick's issue with Reid was that he couldn't take a hit, and he wouldn't go down. Otherwise he was pretty good much of the time.  Mahomes has a system that works. Mahomes doesn't become Mahomes elsewhere because not everyone can extract 125% of the ability of a specific player like Reid can. Kevin O'Connell is beginning to look like he has that ability as well but I'll need to see how he does with his Redshirt Freshman.  I also wonder how much of their playoff issue last year was related to the offense as a whole and not just Darnold. Fans don't really dive into the "why" things happen, they just see the what and complain about it.
