Season's we've faced the AFC North have not been good

These are generally our worst years, but thankfully that division has fallen off. Think part of it stems from road games, too. But seriously, look at the records.

2014: 7-8-1 (Division Title somehow) (1-2-1 against North)

2010: 2-14 (0-4)

2006: 8-8 (2-2)

2002: 7-9 (3-1)

At least in 2014, the entire division suffered. The Saints won the Super Bowl in 2010 and the Bucs in 2002. Don't know what it is with this franchise and playing this division. BTW, we've never beaten Pittsburgh, and I wonder if that has something to do with JR. Maybe Rooney's gift Tepper a victory this year. I still feel Pitt continues to fall off, BAltimore certainly has, Cincy and Cleveland are nothing. Although I still think the Browns make the playoffs this year.

Yeah but our team this year isn’t nearly as bad as those other teams talent wise. I mean maybe you could debate 2014 but Cam was hurt, OL was an abomination, and we lost Hardy. 

That 2002 team wasn’t that bad though. The defense was amazing. Only the Bucs allowed less yards than us.

Actually, we have.  We won the first regular season meeting against them 18-14 at home in 1996.  Unfortunately, that was the only time we beat them and have a 1-5 regular season record against them.

There is not a team in the league the Panthers haven't defeated at least once during the regular season.

 What do you mean never beaten Pittsburgh? I specifically remember Chad Cota intercepting Kordell Stewart at the end of a game in 96 to get us in the playoffs

    • You’re right. I was thinking of the GB game with the silly reach for the goal line when he wasn’t close that turned into a goal line fumble. I do remember all the discussions in here about end of the game interceptions and bad passes, etc. but that wasn’t against the Chiefs. That said, still the best season by a QB since Cam. Best 4 game run was Darnold to start 2021, but best full season was Teddy. That makes me really sad.
    • Agreed. I think they never seriously considered him an option even though he was/is miles better than Darnold.  I think the ego stuff was massively overplayed. He was played for the Browns, a disaster organization, and he accomplished more than they have in years. He came here to another diaster organization that happened to be worse than Cleveland and he didn't succeed. But, how could he? Frankly, who the fug could? I think our general fanbase really underestimates how terrible this organization truly is. It can nuke anyone.  poo, you see how Stroud is struggling with a damn good Texans team? Can you imagine how bad he would be here in our circumstances?? He can thank his lucky stars we made the choice we did.
    • I think the vast majority of QBs only thrive or die based on their situations. But some are capable of making everyone else around them better in a way they redefine, or at least elevate, those situations. And some of the former group also just never will really have "it" when the moment matters. So far it feels like Bryce either needs the perfect situation or he just doesn't have "it". I suppose we'll get the season to see if that changes, but to call me skeptical is an understatement.
