Have We Really Beaten Anyone?

It's fantastic starting out 4 and 0. I couldn't ask for a more impressive start from my Panthers. Our O-line is protecting our Franchise. Cam looks better than ever. Our defense looks poised to be dominant; one of, if not the best, defenses in the NFL this season. We all expect a healthy Luke to be back for our next game. We should be riding into this bye flying high right? Yeah of course to some degree... but we can't afford to be complacent.

I think it's good to look at what we've done so far, and instead of being awestruck by the success,we should be feeling we still have everything to prove. The Super Bowl isn't won in the first four weeks. We're far from our goal. Our players and our coaches should not relax for a minute. We need to emerge on the 18th hungry and prepared to stomp some faces. 

Luckily we are facing the Seahawks coming out of the bye. It only takes a short-memory to harbor ill-feelings towards this team. They've beaten us again and again-most recently and painfully in the Divisional round last year. According to my research we haven't beaten them since Dec. 16th, 2007. We have a grudge and we need satisfaction. We haven't beaten anyone yet. Now is not the time to bask in the glory of starting 4 and Oh. Now is the time to focus in and prepare for greatness. Now is the time to show the world and the media that the Carolina Panthers are for real and that the Superbowl is coming through Charlotte, North Carolina.

You can only play the teams that are on the schedule and everyone knows the old adage "any given Sunday." 

Well, we've won every-given Sunday so far and yes, the Jags are a dangerous team. The 'Phins were supposed to be on the up and up. We can't control the Saints being without Breea (even though McCown or whoever it was that played performed as good, if not better than Bree's might have.) 

im just tired of the argument, these teams that we've played have just played good or better teams than they are and by it being any-given Sunday, these teams haven't won much.

everyone knows who the better teams are, but that doesn't mean they can't be beaten. We'll play 4-solid teams that we may be under-dogs against come game day. 

We'll see what kind of team we have after the bye and then we can start debating. Till then, we've beaten teams we were favored against on paper.

We've beaten everyone they've scheduled us to play so far. This is the NFL, not the WWE ... we can't just sneak attack the Patriots on their practice field and go four quarters on them.

 

That would be pretty wild if you got one surprise game a year... Danged Patriots would bring in a folding metal chair every time, though.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates

      This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
