Is Atlanta a must win?


Randolph Panther

Recommended Posts

It's not a must win.  It will be week 4 on the road and the NFC South is bad.  Even at 1-3 the Panthers would still have a good chance to win the South.  I don't think we have to worry about it though.  Atlanta doesn't have the players on defense to disrupt the Panthers offense like Denver and Minnesota.

It's not a must win but I'll officially be worried about our team if we lose it.

Yes, it's a must-win. This team has no discipline nor does it have brains (the coaching staff remains incapable of adjusting). If we lose to Atlanta, then I'll bet on my soul that we go 5-11 or 6-10. Forget 7-9. We have all the athleticism and size and physicality in the world but what good is it if our coaches can't harness its true potential.

If we lose to Atlanta, unpack your bags because our boys will be staying home after December. Hell, that might as well be the case now since we let Bradford and that horrendous Vikings OL beat us at home.

If we were 0-3 it still wouldn't be a must win. Most people are just way too reactionary to September games. We haven't played a single divisional game yet.

I really don't care for the "must-win" term and the way it's thrown around.  It's become the ASAP of the sports world.

To me "must-win" means that if we lose we're not capable of making it to the post season and thus we "must win".  So no - this game is not a must-win game.

This game is important for us to win without a doubt.  It would be great for the team morale and it would keep us on pace with the rest of our division.  It would be equally bad for morale to drop to 1-3 but still we would not be eliminated from anything.

    • Lol. The Texans are literally one of Bryce's six career NFL wins. WTF are you talking about?
    • Yeah, I mean it is a statistical fact and also part of literally a player evaluation. Winston has literally lost dozens of games in his NFL career due to crippling TO's. It's just who he is. Look, it's fun when those insane throws work and he is leading you back from some crazy deficit. But those success are rare. It's why his career GWD count is so low. He's fun but he is fundamentally built to lose games.  If you are talking about a backup QB, you are literally already losing in the first place. That's how you see a backup QB and that's overwhelmingly what they tend to do. Rookie QB's almost always benefit from veteran QB's. Same as literally any other position in the NFL. Why do you think that you so often hear that from the playera themselves? As for Bryce NEEDING one, no he sure as poo shouldn't this late in the game. But he also shouldn't have needed this fuging long to get his fuging footwork straightened out either. Yet here we are.
    • Comfortability is the primary reason. They don't want to hurt Bryce's confidence. But I say if his confidence is that fragile that healthy competition which makes everyone better is enough for them to keep making Andy Dalton rich then Bryce was never going to be the guy anyway. Give me the QB who sees the competition amongst his peers and uses it to take it to the next level. Instead we get the guy who comes out looking like a deer in the headlights against the Texans after we've done everything possible to appease him. Definition of complacency.
