Time for some consistency.

I find myself hesitant to go all in with the Panthers going deep into the playoffs at the moment. 

 

What I need to see from them is consistency. String together several solid wins both at home and on the road. It hasn't happened yet this season. 

If they can win the next two games, I believe they are bound for the NFCCG. 

Win against the Jets and lose to the Saints.... Playoff road game where I am not too confident. 

Win neither..... Well.... Worst case scenerio. Mediocre record, no playoffs.

Panthers are 7-3.  Tied for 4th in the NFC.  Currently hold a wild card spot.  They've won 3 straight.  I would consider that consistent.   It's hard to win in the NFL.  Lots of other teams would love to have the Panthers record right now.  Not sure what you are expecting.

If we go 13-3 and the Eagles go 13-3 and the Vikings also go 13-3, could we possibly have the 3 way tiebreaker for the 1 seed? Head to head against the Eagles we wouldn't have obviously but the 3 way tiebreaker is different.

I think the game this week will tell more about this team than the one next week. 

If they come out and handle business against the Jets, I think it is a great sign. It’s hard to gauge much against a divisional opponent because those games tend to be a toss up and the records usually don’t matter. 

Looking sharp against a surprisingly game jets team after they have had their bye and have had two weeks to prep for our team, will say a lot. 

If the panthers come out flat and lay an egg in NY, we are going to be looking at the tie breaking procedures for the wild card for the rest of the year.

I think it's conference record and Vikings lost to steelers. All of ours are nfc

    Would like to add. That it also looks as though we are headed to the Playoffs for the 5th time in the last 6 years. Pretty consistent from where I am sitting.

 

    Sure, there are 6 games left. And anything can happen. But man, we are in prime position to be a pain in the azz to the few teams above us. They all know they have to keep winning, or we could very well catch/pass them.

    I could be wrong. But I think the first criteria is head to head among the three. If you have lost to either of the other teams. You are out. Again, I could be wrong, cuz, that track record...but then again. I could be right.

I agree. We need to show that we can compete with the big boys. We've had the luxury this season of a cupcake schedule against some bad defenses that helped get us by with Shula's playcalling. If we had the same schedule as last year or the year before, we could easily have a losing record right now. Shula still is and will continue to hold back the full potential of this offense.

We have 3 NFC loses already. We are not likely to win too many tie breakers.

And, while I am probably a bit more optimistic, it is hard to argue with what Jeremy wrote. The next 3 games are huge and will pretty much set us up for whatever outcome lies ahead for this team.

Here are the procedures for breaking a 3-way tie:

  1. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games among the clubs).
  2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
  3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.
  4. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
  5. Strength of victory.
  6. Strength of schedule.
  7. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed.
  8. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed.
  9. Best net points in common games.
  10. Best net points in all games.
  11. Best net touchdowns in all games.
  12. Coin toss

Philadelphia owns the head to head win.  Minnesota and Philly do not play in regular season.  Panthers would lose out in virtually any tie breaking scenario with the teams currently in the playoff picture.

We had one really  bad loss and two to the best teams in the NFL.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.

      Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor.

      Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
