Not about the article, but about the video at the top.  Random guy says "eventually the discussion about the Panthers going 16-0 begins" and Deion says basically hayull no.  Says we'll have a let down game because what if Olsen gets hurt (weak argument).  Then says if any team goes 16-0 it'll be the Patriots.  I mean, if his argument was "they won't go 16-0 because no one will go 16-0 because it's too damn difficult in this league" I wouldn't get my feels hurt about it.  But he's basically shitting on the Panthers there.  He tries to redeem himself by saying there's 4 teams that are the contenders and the other 8 teams in the playoffs are just happy to be there and the Panthers are one of the 4, but it doesn't make up for the previous comment imo heh.  Irvin and Faulk disagree to a point and somewhat defend the Panthers.  They imply that they think Carolina CAN go 16-0 if someone's gonna do it.

What are the odds?

2 teams have done it in 49 years....One is the same coach and qb. 

if we do it, cool. But I'd rather win the Superbowl, I think you can ask the above mentioned coach and qb about which one they would like to have .

And like I said, if that had been his angle I wouldn't have had a problem.  But it wasn't.  It wasn't that "the odds are against a team doing it again", it was "it ain't gonna be the Panthers".

Yeah I know. I just keep thinking about all the teams in history to not do it. I am also starting to think we might do it. But so can the Pats...

This is the point I was hitting on. At the beginning of the season, when a team is 0-0, the odds of anyone going 16-0 is really horrible. However, we're already 10 games in and past the toughest part of the schedule. It's not such a monumental feat at this point.

It's like the odds of flipping a coin and it coming up heads 10 times in a row is really bad (1 in 1024). However, if you've already had heads come up 8 times in a row, you're now looking at 1-4 odds since you only need heads to come up two more times. Big difference.

You know I was on the fence before but after reading all this stuff today I'm starting to want us to go undefeated

To start off a run of over 5 Super Bowl wins in the Cam/Luke/Rivera/Gettleman era with a 19-0 season would be fuging beautiful.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
