Clueless, angry Tampa Bay Buc fans.

First off, hello to all my Panther brothers, this is my first post!

I've been reading the Tamp Bay Buc message boards for a few years now. I used to be a member but got banned awhile back for defending my Panthers against some derranged Buc fans.

Anyway, I was checking out the board today and they are trying to convince themselves that not only are the Panthers not gonna get 1st place overall in the NFC but we will end up NOT MAKING THE PLAYOFFS AT ALL!

Is this even remotely possible? So if they did loose the next 2, the Panthers would be 11-5 overall. Has a 11-5 team ever not made the playoffs?

I take most of what those guys say over there with a grain of salt. They are so delusional it's almost funny.

I'd like to see the Cowboys beat Baltimore and Philly and Atlanta beat Minnesota.

f*ck them

No, i'd rather the Cowboys not make it. Their fanbase is too damn annoying.

If the Fucs or Falcons make it, they will be coming into our house and we know what will happen there.

Yes it is possible - if the Panthers lose their last two , and the Bucs, Falcons, Cowboys win their last two then the Panthers are out.

One of the three has to lose 1 for the Panthers to at least be guaranteed a wild card.

That would be one major meltdown. Alot of bad things would have to happen I would think. The only thing that really makes me nervous is how we play on the road. We just need to take care of business on Sunday and then it's all gravy.

That really goes to show how strong the NFC is this year.

For this to happen, Panthers would have to lose both games while Bucs, Falcons and Cowboys would have to win all of theirs. Even though this is not impossible, it's highly unlikely.

Panthers need one win out of their next two games to win the division

Bucs fans should be worried about Bucs. They might not make the playoffs

I think I heard the other night on PTI that a 12-2 team ended up not making the playoffs back in the 14 game season era. Realli didn't correct them so I'm guessing they were correct but not sure who it was.

I believe the only team to win 11 games and not make the playoffs were Broncos back in the 80s. I don't remember which year that was

You have to remember that not only do we have to lose out, but they have to win out. If either Dallas, Atlanta, or the Bucs drop one game in the next two weeks, we're automatically in. At least, that's the way I hear it goes. Somebody can correct me if they'd like.

    • I think his stats will depend on the development of the rookies and sophomore receivers, which isn't totally under is control. The eye test is a different story. Has to consistently look the part before you decide to pay him Purdy money. 
    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
