Starting with this...

 

Greg Olsen

 

Big thanks to Greg, not just for being a great player and great teammate, but for being a perfect example of the "keep pounding" philosophy both on and off the field.

 

That third round pick we gave up was absolute thievery.

Kelvin Benjamin - 1k yards on a run first offense with a terrible OC and subpar OL? Hell yeah!

CB's - young guys balled out, something we sorely needed.

58 and 59 - what's left to say? Best LB tandem in the NFL hands down.

Rivera - despite his flaws he did a great job righting the shio, keeping the guys focused and fighting. Guys gush about his leadership.

Gettleman - didn't have the FA success he enjoyed last year but the rookies he brought in played huge roles.

To the whole 53 and the Coaching staff.

 

A lot of us fans were willing to pack it in at 3-8-1.

 

You guys demonstrated what the heart of a pro athlete and will of a professional coaching staff really is by not doing what it was so easy for us fans to do.

 

Proud to be a Panthers fan.

Absolutely nothing but praise for Thomas Davis.  This generation's Sam Mills.

 

Moments of regression aside, I think we all saw Cam take another step forward last night.  This in spite of tons of injuries and an, at times, terrible offensive line.

 

Wilks and the entire d coaching corps....that side of the ball had to re-tool the whole secondary and deal with Hardy getting cast out for, at best, questionable reasons for an entire season, and the d still did enough this season to get us our first consecutive division championship.

 

Rivera, if nothing else, got the team to rally these last few weeks....all we can do is hope that he finally learns from his mistakes this offseason and we stop having these slow starts.

 

And lastly, I'd like to thank you for all you've done for this board over the years, Mr Scot.  You're always a good read, have some of the most intelligent posts here, and seem to be a good guy in life too.

      Meh… I wish there was a network that has all sports.  This thing will fail.

      If you could add one player from any team in the NFL to the 2025 Panthers to make them Super Bowl contenders, who would it be?

      Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.

      I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
