Is the season salvagable?

I don't see us getting a wild card, I can't see us with any more than 9 wins and the way NO is playing I doubt they lose more than 5 games..

I think we could get to 3-3 with the schedule we have coming up, but 2-4 is more likely. The problem is that after that, we have a 10 game stretch in which we'll be the decided underdog in 8. We'll lose 6 or 7 of those 10. Somewhere between 5-11 and 7-9 is about the most we can hope for.

You really have to change what salvagable means to us as fans right now. Before the season started I would have said absolutely not (because I wanted a winning season and a playoff berth) but now after watching this team for the past three weeks and preseason I guess we should change our expectations. Now the season could be "salvaged" if we start Matt Moore after the bye against a weak Redskins team (confidence booster) and give him the reigns. If Matt plays well and we finish with about 6-7 wins then we salvaged the season because at least we know what Matt can and can't do once and for all. Other than that no, 7 wins with Jake at QB gives us nothing.

Nah it is pretty much over. If you somehow win 3 in a row and fight back to .500 you are pretty much spent and are well at .500 with 10 games to go. Win a few lose a few and you are still a .500 team. That is why only 5 or so teams in NFL history have climbed out of a hole like this.

    • You know, there's something about this whole JAG thing that really just drives home the idea that to some folks, these players aren't real people, just names and stats.  Of course, it goes beyond sports. We're a sad, jaded species, us humans.
    • I hope we get no featured games, or only one if that's still a thing Don't like having to subscribe to a service just to see the panthers play a single game, i'm looking at you peacock Football is made for sunday afternoons Word
    • Yeah, it's just dumb. Everything is year to year. I never understood how anyone could stay engaged as a Kentucky fan or duke fan as duke became a one and done factory like Calipari made Kentucky. The thing I liked at about UNC is that we primarily focused on recruits likely to play multiple years. We'd have pur occasional one and done but most of our pros still played multiple years. And the days of the Stackhouses, Wallace, Jamison, Carter, etc. playing multiple years is just over. And now you have your role players entering the portal every year to test the waters elsewhere. I don't blame them for looking out for themselves but just personally speaking I'll run out of interest quickly trying to get to know a whole new roster year over year.
