A Playoff senario question


PghPanther

Recommended Posts

Question regarding the Panthers playoff situation.......

Is is true if either Dallas, Atlanta or Bucs lose one just one of their remaining two games then regardless of what Carolina does in their final two games.......that the Panthers would be in the playoffs...abeit even as a wild card in the worst case senario?

If that is true then we could possibly know that status before the Sunday night game is played......

Of course the Sunday night game would then be the home field advantage edge with a win and lock in the bye week as well.

So if Dallas loses to Baltimore on Thrusday night that would be all it takes to get the Panthers into the post season?

Do I have this correct?................If not is there anyother way to explain it?

Thanks in advance for any help.

If any of those three lose any of their next two we're in automatically.

If both ATL and Tampa lose at least one game, we win the division regardless of what we do.

If we lose to NY but beat New Orleans we win the division, secure the # 2 seed and home field advantage against everyone but NY regardless of what the other guys do.

If we beat the Giants we win the division, secure the # 1 seed and home field advantage throughout regardless of what the other guys do.

    • Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts? 
    • nope     This is why we come back every year.  Hope springs eternal
    • It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
