NFC Picture: How do you WANT to see it play out?


ThinkAboutIt

Recommended Posts

I want Seattle to get the 5.  Then I want Minnesota to beat Green Bay.

We get Minnesota, who I think we would absolutely destroy, it is a great match-up.  Meanwhile Arizona and Seattle face off and beat each other up and we a fresh for whoever survives.

If GB loses out, they will be the 6 seed, travel to NFC East and if they win, will be on their way to Carolina while someone else, Minny or Seattle, goes to AZ

Green Bay would travel to Minnesota in that scenario.  The NFC East team will be the 4 and play the 5 (likely Seattle)

I'm hoping for this seeding:

1) Carolina 

2) Arizona

3) Green Bay

4) NFC East

5) Seattle

6) Minnesota

I think Minny would be pissed at losing twice to Green Bay (which they'd almost have to in order for GB to be the 3rd seed). A third game between them would probably go to the Vikes. By virtue of that, AZ would get the winner of the Seattle/NFC East game. I believe AZ will beat either opponent, and we have a great chance against Minny due to their inexperience. NFCCG and de facto Super Bowl would be in Charlotte. Can't predict a winner there. It depends on which Panther team shows up. To review:

Rd 1: 

- Minny @ GB. 

- Seattle @ NFC East 

Rd 2: 

- Minny @ Carolina 

- Seattle @ AZ 

Rd. 3:

- AZ @ Carolina

In that scenario, I'm sure the NFCCG would be Seattle @ Carolina, because Round 1 will be so easy for Seattle (unless it's the Giants), that they'll roll into Arizona on a high having won the R1 by more than 20 points, and they'll be going up against Carson Palmer who's never won a Playoff game (He got hurt in one of them, I think). 

Palmer will probably cave under the spotlight against Seattle. 

Unless it's a physical game and Seattle gets beaten up some, they'll come into Carolina supremely confident and not too tired having stayed on the West coast for that game because, again, Rd 1 was probably so easy for them. 

I think Aaron Rodgers can get hot and knock out Seattle in Rd 1. That's what I'd like to see, anyway. I'm not concerned about anyone else, not even Arizona.

#6 is going to the NFC North (#3). The NFC East Champ will have at least 7 losses, so they will be #4.

I think you are overestimating the edge they would have from confidence. And I think you are underestimating the Cardinals ability to trounce them.

Anything could happen. But I'd rather not see Seattle AT ALL in the playoffs. I'd much rather they get knocked out before we would face them. Minny would be best, cus they are the only team in contention that wouldn't be a grudge match from earlier this season. Same for AZ. The last thing I want is for a team to roll into Charlotte wanting to repay us for a loss we handed them this season. Therefore, I want to face Minny first, and then AZ in the NFCCG.

Sure, but the Panthers couldn't hope for a better fate than to luck up and face the Redskins in Round 2 instead of the Seahawks, which is actually very possible, as long as the Redskins make it in. The Vikings have a rookie QB and even though the Redskins are a worse team, they'd have the advantage as the home team. 

Bridgewater is not a rookie.

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
