Got a little bored so I went to Pro Football Reference

Carolina Panthers have the best overall record in the NFC South.

After 23 Seasons we have finally hit .500 (counting playoffs) 192-192-1

The others aren't even close

Atlanta Falcons  52 seasons 361-457-6

New Orleans Saints 51 Season 357-442-5

Tampa Bay Bucs 42 Seasons 261-413-1

17 Franchises ahead of us in overall record including Cleveland (surprised) New England, Indy/Baltimore, KC, Oakland, Denver, Baltimore Ravens, Pittsburgh and Miami from AFC.  Washington, Dallas, NYG, Chicago, Green Bay, Minnesota, SF and Seattle (10 games above)

Most of these teams (including Cleveland 50s and 60's) had a dominate run at one point or another during their time.   Cleveland and Minnesota are the only teams not to win Super Bowl.

Not bad for 23 years.

But hey, let's not mess with the whole "ineptitude of the franchise throughout its life" idea that has run rampant through the Huddle over the last year. You can point out that 21 teams have worse overall records than us, but it won't matter.

They want to compare us to the history of the Patriots and Broncos, Steelers and Cowboys over the last couple of decades, glossing over the hard years each of those franchises suffered through. They'll tell you that Rivera sucks and that Fox sucked before him. They cut their teeth on Madden and saw Belichick run the last two decades of championships through Foxboro.

In short, they're putzes and schmucks. They want their participation trophies and have no idea how darned hard it is to win a championship in the NFL and how rare it is to even hit .500 for a franchise's lifetime.

Absolutely.   Look at Cleveland.  They has struggled since they came back to Cleveland in 99.  Who would have thought they were over .500 for a lifetime record.  (I sure didnt) That franchise was once the epitomy of an NFL franchise in the 50s and 60s,  Before Brady rose NE out of the shadows.  New England was a subpar team. 

The Steelers I believe have the best overall percentage.  I wasn't doing the math but briefly notice they were well over .500.

For as young as we are we have done quite well, IMO.

Pretty sure the point you're making IS saying you want the participation trophy. NEAT ... we're at .500. Now what? Now nothing. Being .500 or above means nothing. Zilch. Nada. Zero. But hey, as long as you're happy with being better than 21 teams, good for ya.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By bandu · Posted

      there is one common denominator in the 2003 & 2015 Carolina Panthers teams they both had ELITE top tier Qb play.  it would require a MVP type of season from Bryce Young to have the same type of success that Jake Delhomme had in  2003 & or Cam Newton in 2015 & lead this team to a SuperBowl is this going to happen or is there any reason to believe Bryce Young is capable of playing similar to Jake Delhomme in 2003 or Cam Newton in 2015 ? well no there is no absolutely NO reason whatsoever to believe that this is going to happen in 2026 ..just saying

      Trevin Wallace - One Final Shot...or is Cherelus someone to watch?

      By CmC2k · Posted

      I'd actually like to see Cherelus get a fair shot to win the job in camp. Wallace is decent in drop zone coverage, but he gets abused in the play action game and is often times out of position in the run game. It might just be me, but I swear every time I watch Wallace play, I see multiple plays a game were it looks like he's just trying to be blocked. Watching Cherelus last year he at least looked like he was trying to hit someone on every play. Wallace plays like a LB who doesn't trust what he sees and it makes him passive and cautious versus Cherelus who regardless of if his decision is right or wrong goes at it 100%.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      Agreed.  Hasn’t happened to me either, but I feel very strongly about it.  That’s not just one of the worst things a woman could do to a man, it’s a power inherent to only women and is one of the worst things a HUMAN being can do to another.  A man can’t “hide” a pregnancy or maternity.  It’s impossible.  And that sucks for anyone that has to go through that. I always got a weird vibe off her and just found her very unlikeable.  Annoying even.  I’ve always been good at reading people and there was just something about her to me that was off-putting, somewhere under the surface.  And here we are…  she is despicable.
