Would you do this deal?

I don't think this would ever happen for many reasons but its interesting to think about:

Say that you are in a position very similar to the NYG CAR game. The winner is assured the #1 seed. One team (TEAM A) has clinched the division and for arguments sake, is assured the #2 seed at worse. The other team (TEAM B) has not won the division and would be eliminated from the playoffs with a loss.

If you are TEAM B(CAR) would you accept a forfeit from TEAM A(NYG) IF you agreed to play away at TEAM A(NYG) if you met in the playoffs?

Its a hypothetical question relax. But good responses because the correct answer is hell no if you are a real fan. Why would you ever give away a chance at NFC champ game in Charlotte? The NYG CAR matchup is rare because it does present a similar situation to this. I was hoping for an intelligent discussion, I guess I'll look elsewhere.

The league doesn't allow teams to make "deals" for playoff positioning or location. Home field is decided by record/seeding, not by agreement.

This is the second suggestion of this type I've seen (the other had us "colluding" with the Giants). Where are people coming up with this stuff?

(maybe "why" is the better question) :rolleyes:

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By MechaZain · Posted

      I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.

      So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
