USA Today Predicts Panthers to lead NFL at 13-3

I've not actually seen this at USA today.... only a tweet about it, so I don't have a link and I'm not positive it's official.  But still.... fun to see Panthers predicted to lead NFL in wins again.

I'm sure this is true with a lot of us about right now ... I'm getting hyped. 

The thing I would love to see at the start of the season is a true and honest "that was yesterday". (Which we have definitely heard) I'm pretty confident we aren't going into to the season resting on last years schedule. 

Last year the theme was :

"We're better than you think "   "We have fun and we dominate" "We are the young upstarts" etc etc

This year I truly believe the theme is going to be "We're coming" "you think we played hard last year " ?  "We're pissed off and have one goal" 

"eye of the tiger" 

-just random thoughts I say to myself.

Not sure how the niners win 8 games. Especially in that division

I like it better when we are predicted to stink, no chance of guys getting stuck on last year's success

They have the Packers at 13-3 as well...

Titans will finish way better then 2-14. Jags are going to beat that 6-10 projection as well.

"We only got two thing to say to them boys, We comming. Break it down on that" "We Comming!"

Hosting another NFCC game would be outstanding.

I don't think the Bengals, Jags, Redskins, or Falcons are gonna be as low as USA Today has them. Also don't think the Cowboys are gonna scratch 11 wins. 

 

But 13 wins would be a awesome accomplishment with the tougher schedule this year.

[Burnout189]

Dallas with 11 wins?!?!

The only way to manage that is to regularly have average-to-bad teams.

I prefer the alternative to that, actually.

Bills, JAX, TENN, Giants should be better than that. 13-3 isn't bad for CAR. I guess CAR rests starters this year towards at the end of the year.

13-3 is a reasonable prediction but I think we finish 12-4. Overall I expect we will be a better team(offense especially) than last year but we will have a worse record.
