......no team has ever won a Super Bowl if they went 0-4 in pre season. I have not done a totally flawless search on this, but certainly things that tend to be true in the past, tend to be true in the future.

Best way to get to a Super Bowl, statistically, seems to be to go 2-2 in pre season. That probably shows a balance of strength and willingness to accept losses in the short run, to win in the longer run.

Last time Panthers went to the Super Bowl they were undefeated in pre season, just for the record.

I am going to stop short of saying that one of the next two pre season games is a MUST win. But it's close.

Just a thought.......

but.....but....but the Lions!!! OP, u really think thts wht players think about during games? Week 17, Kasay lines up to take a game winning, division clinching FG to take Carolina to a 12-4 record and first round bye. Even tho he knows he can make it, he will prolly just have this thought "I could make this, but we were 4-0 in preseason, so its not like we're gunna win the super bowl anyways....i mine as well just miss this kick....." who the F has their pre-season record on their mind when their working toward a Super Bowl run?

Oh and another tidbit for yall, no bald QB has ever won the super bowl. the only one close was Trent Dilfer with Baltimore in 2000. Ironically enough, he gets the least credit for taking his team there. See i have random thoughts to

      Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.

      I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.

      Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
