It could be worse. According to this article https://www.patriots.com/news/nfl-decade-standings-how-the-league-ranks-from-2010-2018, the Panthers are ranked 14th in regular season wins between 2010 -2018.  This of course includes John Fox's 2-10 season.  I couldn't find a ranking between 2011 and 2018.  I think you could safely say we are in the top half of the league in the time Rivera has been coach.

I'm just really sick to damn DEATH of the Saints. I'm shocked that they're undefeated without Drew Brees.

Writing is on the wall. The NFL is going to give Brees a retirement party, just like they did for Peyton Manning.

I’ll take it, but anyone that thinks Brees is retiring after this year (even if we win a Super Bowl) isn’t paying much attention.

If anything, it might end up helping him stick around even longer. I know y’all seen him on the sidelines: like a dog standing at the end of the chain, chomping at the bit to get back out there. Missing 6-7 weeks toward the middle of the season only means his arm is going to be that much fresher going into January.

Just approaching the bar.

tbh, not to knock anyone, but a lot of the posts in this thread analyzing the current situation say things completely generic to the NFL at this point in the season. You could literally take some of this stuff and plug it in every single season at this time of year and at most you might have to shuffle some of the team names around. We're just too early in the season to really assess anything meaningful.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
