Damn I'm genuinely surprised to read that. If the D can keep up their recent stellar play, they may just be able to turn this thing around and make some noise in January...lord knows we have seen this team go on huge winning streaks in the past, with arguably less talent.

In my "Bye Bye Huddle (for three weeks)" thread I made mention of the streak the Panthers were about to go on. Not based on intuition or blind fandom but the reality that a Shula/Rivera/McDermott combination seem to finally get on the same page around midway through a season and really take off in the last 6-8 games. The pass rush has come back, the offense is struggling because receivers can't get open and Cam isn't scrambling near as much, and we are playing typical complimentary football again. 

Here's to hoping the Falcan'ts fall off at some point because we have the ability to take hold of this division in the next 4 weeks.

Delete the one with responses? lol

More sacks please. And on the other side, fewer sacks for Cam. This team has to get 'r done up front or it's 'wait til next year'.

Ha I guess I picked the wrong one. Yeah that's true. I think not having Kalil really hurt us playing against Donald. And the improvement of the D-line coupled with having Worley and Bradberry healthy, as well as the emergence of Johnson, has been key for the defense's improvement.

      Bleacher report not buying Panthers’ hype

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Well, everyone is a critic.  not much meat on the bone here in analysis but if the team needs motivation … lol   I have also heard a lot of talking head or two say that ‘Young is not in the same class as most of these teams and that in 12 of the 17 games he is the lesser QB   BR write up below  2025 record: 8-9 Last season, the Carolina Panthers made the playoffs for the first time since 2017. They won the division. Bryce Young made strides, throwing for 3,011 yards, 23 touchdowns and 11 interceptions with a 63.6 percent completion rate. Wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan won the 2025 Offensive Rookie of the Year award. In free agency, the Panthers signed edge-rusher Jaelan Phillips and linebacker Devin Lloyd to bolster their middling defense. Carolina can win with complementary football if the offense continues to trend in the right direction. In 2026, Carolina will play the AFC North and NFC North on a first-place schedule, which includes matchups against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles, Chicago Bears, Denver Broncos, and the Seattle Seahawks. The club will have a much tougher 17-game slate than it had last year, which may lead to regression. The Panthers aren't on the same level as the league's top teams. We'll see the gap between them and division-winning clubs from the previous season. 2026 projection: 6-11

      Panthers 2026 schedule

      If someone key is hurt and your bye week helps you by not forcing you to play without them, it is at a good time.  No way to know about that ahead of time.   I would concede that with 17 games and let’s say you are playoff bound, you would love to have it late

      Turk Wharton Neck Surgery

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Hate it for him personally and hope he recovers well. But honestly, reaching an injury settlement and moving on would probably be a best case scenario for the Panthers. This signing always felt like a desperate knee-jerk reaction to losing out on Milton Williams. Williams was a logical scheme fit while Wharton just wasn't. He's best used as a rotational interior pass rushing specialist in an even front. He's way too small to play the nose in a 3-4 and he lacks the length and juice to play the end. Healthy he's a nice roster piece in the right scheme at the right price but we overpaid him to play him in the wrong scheme. The signing just never made any sense to me and I said so at the time.
