An undermentioned side effect of having a subpar season

CMC was always a bit of a long shot of an MVP candidate with the numbers QBs out up in today's NFL, but he's probably going to rewrite single season record books this year and he may not even get a vote if we end up going 6-10 or 7-9. That's a damn shame.

Last I saw, he was not even winning the pro bowl votes over Cook.  No way he gets MVP with people like Wilson and Lamar balling out on teams that are winning games.

Set aside the MVP talk for a second.

Yeah, he's on pace to break the record for yards from scrimmage in a single season, but if we're eliminated from playoff contention in the next few weeks (a real possibility) you pretty much have to shut him down, wouldn't you say?

The record would be nice and all but that's not a reward that I see being worth the risk.

Tread carefully I'd say.

Does CMC "want" the record?  If so, do you really want to shut down a guy who wants a record that's within his reach?  If you do shut him down over his own desire for the record, do you think you can then re-sign said player?

I see a lot of variables in this equation that need to be carefully evaluated.  I don't think it's simple at all.

I'd say it's on CMC to make that decision.  I know if I was in that position, I'd go for it.  It's not often that this record is in reach.  Mine as well take something from this season.

      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.
