CMC getting 1500 is most realistic. Most unrealistic is Samuel getting 1k

I agree. I wouldn't change the order that they're listed. CMC had 1086 last year (1306 all purpose yards), and Shula had no idea how to use him. Moore getting 900 is also very possible, but between Anderson, CMC, Olsen, Funchess, Smith, and Samuel, there are only so many yards to go around.  I really hope that we get Thomas involved enough that he gets at least 400 yards and 3-4 TD's. Samuel getting 1000 yards doesn't seem likely. With Moore and Smith having similar build/speed, Samuel will have to fight for touches.

I honestly think 400 yards for Thomas is far out of reach, assuming no injuries. I think there are just too many slot options that are so explosive (Samuel, Byrd, CMC, Wright and Moore) that Thomas is an Olsen breather/blocker 95% of the time.

Yeah, I don't see Thomas contributing a lot this year (as long as Olsen stays healthy).  I do think he has the potential to be a stud replacement for Olsen when he steps away though.

That's why they'll never see it coming!!

Honestly, you're likely right, Dickson barely broke 100 yards until last year (437) when he was forced to fill in for an injured Olsen. I would love to see a less predictable offense under Norv though where all the weapons are used. 400 may be a stretch, but using him in the red zone could be dangerous, especially if he is primarily a blocker.

    • It's crazy with how much winning was going on when we had a little cool off period that we're still just a couple games out of 6th. Moussa is getting better every week and Coby is getting comfortable. Would be nice to get to 6 but I think this team is a lot more stacked than the last couple play ins. I can't remember the exact rules but if you're 7th seed and win the first game I think you automatically move on and don't have to play the second game?
    • I think it was a thing for sure. Panthers weren’t too many people’s first choice. Or 5th choice.  2022 and 2023… coaches fired mid season. Consecutive years. You want any of that?  He has definitely overseen a rehab of how the Panthers are perceived. Because we are a place that is seen as up and coming. And just the little thing of he accommodated Theilen so graciously, that gets noticed. It all adds up. Dan is doing a lot of things right, probably most things.  Needs a good draft. 
    • K, I think that is dumb, but you do you. I didn't find anything online that made him out to be a dislikable person. I am certain the Panthers would have cared so much if they lost your fandom if they hired Sean Payton. But bet you would have come crawling back if Sean lead us to a Super Bowl victory or Golden leads UNC to a champion ship. It is easy to say you are gonna leave a team if the hire someone you dislike when the chips are down. But people like you tend to come crawling back once the team finds success.
