This season is going to be insane. Just took a look at the huddle stats and discovered for the past month there has been a 144.71%  increase in visitors to this site over the same time period last year. Interest is way up on this team, for obvious reasons.

1) Cam being named #1 in the NFL Top 100 certainly will have driven recent traffic.

2) Increased interest, yes...  

BUT ALSO all the work you've done Jeremy to get the site optimized for Google News feeds, and working on the front end.  (To say nothing of adding fascinating statistical breakdown articles, LOL....!)

In the past week or two I've noticed a lot more other twitter feeds and news outlets picking up and promoting Huddle pieces.  Even C-S-R which was notorious for ignoring the Huddle and just stealing stuff from here is beginning to link and credit pieces here in quite a reputable way.

WCNC Charlotte has picked up an article or two.   The ESPN NFL Nation Panthers blog has as well, and a few other sites I'm forgetting....

The site's looking great.  Thanks for all the work you've put in.

Really like the sidebar on the forum with the links to the main news articles and some great pictures.  That TD visor picture is just so awesome.  Gets me totally pumped for the season whenever I see it!

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
