Yeah we lost, yeah it sucks, no we're not a bad team, yes we will be in the thick of things the entire year. 

The purpose of this thread is to give you and idea on who you need to be rooting for tomorrow. 

Let's start with the easy ones (AFC vs NFC)

Jaguars over Packers

Raiders over Saints

Browns over Eagles

Titans over Vikings

Dolphins over Seahawks

Texans over Bears

Colts over Lions

Steelers over Skins

Patriots over Cardinals

the Falcons Bucs game is up to you but I'll be pulling for the Falcons.  I would rather not see the Bucs get a road division win as I believe they are the main threat to the division this year 

Cowboys vs Giants:  your call.  I'll go with the Cowboys just because I don't like seeing teams get road wins

take your pick in the Rams niners game.  I'll pull for the niners in an OT physical game  

AFC vs AFC games have little impact.  Cheifs- Chargers game will have some impact in strength of schedule but they play each other so it is kind of irrelevant  

If everything went our way, you would be looking at NFC standings like this:

Niners, Falcons and Cowboys at 1-0

Panthers, Bears, Vikings, Lions, Saints, Packers, Cardinals, Seahawks, Redskins, and Eagles at 0-1 with a nonconference loss

Bucs, Giants, and Rams at 0-1 with a conference loss

Pulling for Tampa. Living here in ATL, I don't want to go through a week hearing there fans continue to boast how this is there year and to expect the panthers to come down to earth. Deflate that fanbase, and deflate them early. Of course, Oakland over NO and any AFC team over an NFC team. Don't care about the other games, but do have a slight interest in the Redskins game. Honestly, I'm just ready for next week already. Hate carrying an L through the week.

Considering ATL was our only loss last year I'm pulling for Bucs no two ways about it.

Pulling for Chargers (friends) but I have really low expectations for those dudes.

Skins will be interesting and I wanna see what all the Sterling Sharpe fuss is about.

Otherwise, standard protocol, afc > nfc so on and so forth.

      Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways.

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
