Could we maybe just maybe be the 2011 Giants?

So I was looking at the 2011 Giants season when they went 9-7 and won it all, I know I know, every single year there is one below average team who thinks they can be the 2011 Giants, but hear me out.

2011 Giants- Beat only one, yes just one team with a winning record all season, the Patriots.

2019 Panthers- Beat one, just one winning team so far, the Texans.

2011 Giants- 8 of their remaining wins came against bad teams that all had a losing record that year.

2019 Panthers- so far all the rest of Panther wins this year have been against bad teams with a losing record so far.

2011 Giants- Have one game where they get blown out and lose 49-24 against the Saints.

2019 Panthers- Had a blowout loss against the 49ers.

oh and FWIW Giants lose to the 15-1 Packers that year during the regular season only to come back and beat them in the playoffs that year. 

Bottom line is this, do NOT count us out yet. If Kyle Allen’s light switch goes on at just the perfect time and we get hot at just the right time, just like the Giants did, then watch out.

11-5 might not get us in with tie breakers. There’s several teams ahead of us.

if we won out at 12-4 then we would get in, mostly because we would probably tie the Saints and be the division winner.

This isn’t a 12-4 team.

maybe 8-8 or 9-7 team.

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
