I hate being the downer but take this 2-0 with a HUGE grain of salt.

Yes I know "good teams beat teams they are suppose to beat." And "no such things as easy wins in the NFL." This is literally the 1st time I have EVER been negative after a win BTW.

So where to start. 2-0. One win against the Jags (much improved Jags) and 1 win against a Texans team going through a QB controversy and a career back up. 

We went up against a career back up QB, at home, against a make shift O line missing their all pro LT... How many sacks did our D have? 0. Nada. Zilch.

Thats just one of MANY problems this team has that I frankly don't have the energy to go into right now after that game.. 

I will say this, and many will disagree and that's fine. I am fully confident we are 4-0 at the bye.. However I am equally confident we go 0-4 against the "big 4" after our bye.. The bottom line is every one of those big 4 teams we play are MILES better than us.

    • Because playoff hockey and regular season hockey aren’t the same thing.  It’s a combination of the game intensity being dialed up with loose officiating.
    • The last 8 weeks, Nix had 2,022 yards, 21 TDs, 6 INTs on 70% completions While Bryce's last 8 games he had 1,709 yards, 12 TDs (albeit adding 5 more rushing), 3 INTs on 61% completions. I'm not going to pretend I watched those Broncos games to know exactly how Nix actually looked, but in retrospect, his statistics were better.  Hell, in just his final 8 games, Nix had only 5 less TD passes than Bryce has in his 30 game (28 starts) career. And you said he had better WRs than Bryce did, but I'm not even sure that's even true either. Sutton and Thielen might be completely different types of WRs, but I'd say they are pretty equal on effectiveness if not even a slight edge to Thielen (63.6 YPG for Sutton to 61.5 for Thielen).  Then XL and Coker vs Marvin Mims and Devaughn Vale, again, at worst a push, if not lean in our favor there too. Why is it so hard for some Panthers fans to just objectively look at our team/Bryce and be honest with themselves. ? He was significantly improved the final two months of the season from his first season and a half.  But he was still a below average QB during that time, even if he had a few good throws and clutch moments.
