Messing with the NFL Playoff machine this morning


Growl

There's an entirely plausible scenario that sees the Panthers head into Week 17 playing for either a 1st Round Bye or staying home entirely. Hold on to those butts.

 

What're you made of Panthers? You're supposed to excel in these moments. Go pound and keep pounding.

Panthers need to win this week, but I’d be lying if I said I won’t be looking at the Seahawks and rams scores on Sunday. We need both of them to lose. 

inherent to the scenario I mentioned above is the rams dropping two of four.

Vs. Phi, @Sea, @Tenn, Vs SF

 

Very plausible.

I think if we get to week 17 with a chance for a bye we will have at least locked up a WC.  Im guessing we would be 11-4 at that point.  Outside of some crazy results I dont think we can go into week 17 at 10-5 hoping to clinch the division. 

Negative, the above scenario is very much in play.

Bottom line is to control our on destiny we need to run the table.  I thought 3-1 would be enough to assure a berth but we need to make plans to run the table. 

3-1 is good enough to go, the problem is 1 of those wins needs to be @ ATL. Tampa game might be meaningless depending on the senarios at play.

    • They are obviously waiting on for someone o the Seahawks or Patriots staff.  If they wanted Evero, it would be a done deal already. The only silver lining is if the guy they are waiting for turns them down.  In that instance I do think Evero is their backup plan.
    • Evero to the Raiders makes zero sense unless the OC he's pitching them is a failed HC who doesn't have interest in trying for it again. They're a team about to draft a QB #1 overall, developing him is job #1 for the new coach/staff.  Hiring a DC with a young up and coming OC wouldn't make any sense, because then you risk losing that OC to a HC job after maybe just a year or two and that young QB has to change system, play caller, etc. It's why hiring an offensive minded coach makes the only sense.  The Raiders have to make the right hire/pick with this HC hire and #1 pick combo because of that division they're in, it's a gauntlet and you can't screw up this opportunity.  
    • 1. Sadly, it's just too early to tell with Icky. And the draft will have come and gone before we have anything, FA, too probably. Njiman was good, but there's dollars to be invested there as well. This is really our biggest puzzle to figure out. And Moton on the other flank is getting long in the tooth, too.  2. Coker: Pay the man WR2 money.  3. Most WRs take three years before you really know what you've got. We'll know for sure by the end of this one and he's still on a relatively inexpensive rookie contract. Now if someone comes calling for a good, good trade... 4. This is the make or break for good teams vs bad teams. And depth development is essential. We've had a bit of that but there isn't a spot on our line that doesn't have worries except for maybe on guard.  5. I think you draft the best ILB, the smartest one in the first round and don't look back. People lost their poo here on this board when we "wasted" a pick on Luke Kuechly.  6. Yeah, I think Chuba is a workhorse. But we need to be more decisive in his use. Still not sure Rico doesn't come back next season, too. He'll get to see the marketplace first, though, and we'll offer similar numbers to him.
