Are we the first 15-1/1 seed team that has been widely predicted to not make the SB?

NFL.com has a article "who will win the NFC" with Carson Palmer's and Rusell Wilson's photos.. All I hear is how "Seahawks are the most dangerous team." Or how "Cardinals are the most well rounded team in the NFC." Can anyone actually name one time th last several days where any high profile outlets or sports analysts actually predict we would win the NFC and make the SB?

All the ones I hear are predicting Seattle or Arizona.. I can atleast kind of understand picking Seattle since they are more of a proven commodity and have made the big dance already twice in a row but how is Arizona clearly the favorite over us?!

Has there ever been a time where a 1 seed and/or 15-1 team WITH a MVP QB and 10 pro bowlers have been completely looked over to make the SB?! Seriously, name one high profile outlet or sports analyst that actually predict us to make the SB? 

I cannot think of single time a 1 seed has been so widely overlooked before like we have.

I'm wondering if we would be the first 15-1 team to be a home underdog for both its playoff games.  If Seattle thumps Minnesota they will probably be favored and if we end up hosting Arizona they might be favored as well.  That's got to be unprecedented.

The "media" won't make as much money or sell as many headlines if Carolina wins.  We don't move the needle, so they talk about teams that do.  Nothing would be better to see Seattle as 3-peat NFC Champions and knock the Panthers off their high horse.  Or to have old man Palmer lead his team to the promise land after so many injuries and years coming up short. Honestly, if the status quo still bothers you.....you're better off not even reading another article.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      Jalen Carter came into camp out of shape too. That was part of the reason he dropped considering he was thought of as the better defensive player pre-draft activities. It’s not a good sign when you don’t look great but it’s definitely premature.

      We won 5 with the worst defense in the history of defenses.  I think free agency and our draft puts us over 6.5.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)
