Does being undefeated make you more nervous?

Are you okay with "as long as we have home field" or "we'll probably lose at least one or two"? Or are you one of the folks who wants an undefeated season bad and frets over each game?

First, this was prime poll material (he he). Also, I'm a complete nervous wreck. Always knowing the 9-7, and even missing the playoffs, is still a mathematical possibility.

The only thing that make me nervous is that for the rest of the regular season, we are better than everyone we face.  That means if we lose, it was to an inferior team. 

For us to lose to an inferior team that mean something bad happened.  That something bad makes me nervous.

right now the Panthers are playing with "house money." Even in my wildest dreams I never would have thought that the Panthers would be in the position they are right now (especially after losing KB).

I'm not worried. Ron knows a thing about winning and expectations (85 Bears) and the guys seem to be playing loose and not looking too far ahead of the next game.

Right now I've got the Panthers and new Star Wars movies. life is pretty effing sweet :D

Yea I'll admit it makes me a bit nervous. I'm one of the "wants the undefeated season bad" types. It would be even more special than just the first 19-0 team. We're a team most people didn't give a chance of even getting to .500 this year. Most Super Bowl winners most people expect to at least be pretty good. We'd be a huge shocker. When the Patriots almost did it in 07 they were expected to be good and people weren't that surprised.  For this team to do it would be truly special.

I was nervous for our 4 games against so-called "murderers row."  I desperately wanted us to beat Seattle & Green Bay and show that we are a legit team.

Now that we've got those wins under our belts, and gotten off to such a phenomenal start, I'm somewhat less nervous.  But I think for divisional games against the Saints & Falcons, the nerves will be back.  I want us to stomp on the NFCS and show everyone who rules the South!

I do want us to shine on national TV against Dallas in Dallas, so that game too is huge. 

Last Sunday and this Sunday however, I'm not sweating it.

    • Rico is 0%. I think we would really like to have Mays back but we have a value in mind and aren't willing to overspend. I think someone probably will so I think the odds are pretty low but not zero.
    • Damn I liked A'Shawn too. This is basically a heads up we're planning on cutting you move.  Robinson wasn't the best but I loved his attitude and effort on the field. He held that entire dline together when Brown went down iirc..granted we finished that season as the worst rushing defense in modern NFL history.  If Wharton would have performed up to atleast half of his salary last season, I'd feel a little better about it. We do need that cap space though. 
    • 13. Carolina is coming. The Panthers are well thought of around the league. Their "process" seems sound. I think their off-season will be very interesting to keep an eye on. They made the playoffs, but they're not yet knocking on the door. (Offense was 26th in EPA/play.) I think it's imperative they don't overestimate where they are in their build. They can't throw a ton of money around in FA to "make a run now". They need to be intentional about building a solid foundation. (IMO) And from what I know about the team... I think they will be. Sidenote: I have my eye on offense there, not defense. They HAVE to leave next season with a strong opinion on Bryce Young. They need to put pieces around him to do that. Can't be left wondering what he would have looked like with "better OL play" or "more pass catchers". They have to know. (That part is purely my opinion. No one told me that.) https://x.com/lindsay_rhodes/status/2027212533417869499?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
