Would you be satisfied and consider the season a success if the Panthers made the playoffs and were one and done?

[KillerKat]

If we're one and done then it's time to get a new head coach

[New York Panther]

No I won't be. That's what happened last year. We should be progressing. I feel like we are supposed in the divisional round

matched up with a saints or rams team come January

No its not. Honestly the future is looking bright. Samuel, CMC, and Moore are ballers. I believe Cam still has a lot of good years left in him, same with Luke but not as many as Cam. We also have a stud cb in D Jax.

We're going to need to find a successor to Greh Olsen soon.

Ian Thomas might be that guy but he hasn't proven it yet.

People will point to Tyler Larsen but I still think he's best suited to be depth rather than a starter.

Super Bowl or bust!  The only scenario where I would consider a consolation is if we knock out the Saints.

[XClown1986]

If a 7-9 Giants team can win a Super Bowl then id only be satisfied with a Lombardi.

Cam will in all likelihood be the 2nd best QB in the playoffs behind Brees.

 

    That's a bold strategy there Cotton.

You gotta make the playoffs to win the super bowl.  

Being as such... I root for the playoffs FIRST.  Just get into the dance anyway possible.  The success of the season hinges on such.  

Once the playoffs begin, the expectations change and its all about that Lombardi.  Falling short of that is a failure.

No team with a top 10 QB should be happy with one and done playoff appearances. 

[JawnyBlaze]

Minimum for a successful season is nfc title game appearance. Of course the “right” answer is Super Bowl, but if we made it to the NCFCG and lost a close game I wouldn’t consider it a wasted season.

A bucket is not gonna run like a Ferrari overnight. We just don't have the personnel on defense to stop anyone. Pep is old, LB play has been bad. Bradberry is good, but he has his moments. for me, D-Jack is the only person with a pulse on our D this year. Unless the defense somehow catches fire, we are a wildcard team at best. There is a chance we may beat someone in the first round depending on who we play. But that's about it in my opinion

[panthers55]

Of course making it to playoffs and losing right away would suck. Certainly not a success. Unless you think that having sex for 10 minutes and getting stopped at first base is successful.

Sex is like the playoffs. The first time you are just glad to be included. Each successive time you gain experience and raise your expectations the further you go. Eventually the only thing that satisfies is going all the way.
