I have this gut feeling we are going to open up the season against the Chiefs on Thursday night on NBC

Opening on thursday would be great.  Best time to do thursday night is after a bye, last preseason game is basically a bye

Is your gut a certain unverified source on Twitter? 

I’ve been told this by a person on the Chiefs side whom I’ve known for years and is very reliable. 
He told me I could take this news to the bank with interest, he was that sure. 
If this doesn’t happen, I will gladly ban myself from the huddle for all of eternity

You initially said this was a gut feeling.  Is this person a gastroenterologist?

I mean I can’t see any negatives if this is true. It’s prime time. If we lose then it’s nothing big as we are already expected to lose to the super bowl champs anyways, but if we win then it could be a huge statement. That being said I think we are gonna get our butts kicked.

Why would the NFL have us on prime time the first week? I would be surprised if we are not 1 Thursday game and the rest 1pm Sunday games. If we do get a prime time game it will probably be flexible.

Gut feeling was probably the wrong wording lol. But I was told this last night. I’m not gonna sit here and pat myself on the back of its true, I’m 99% sure it’s a go, but if not, then oh well too. I really don’t post a lot on here because of my job, but have been a member for years. So whenever I do post, it’s got some good traction behind it

I live in KC and, if true, this might make it the first Panthers game I don't make it to here in town. There've only been 4 of them over the years, including the preseason game in 1997, but if that's the case the prices will be exorbitant. My brother lives in Denver and when we were talking about the season opener in '16 the tickets were like $600 each.

      Jalen Ramsey

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.

      For the Panthers fans still low on Bryce and demanding that he be a top-10 QB this upcoming season: What stat(s) will you need to see? Not the vibe you want, but rather what does he need to be top-10 in specifically? Passing yards? Completion percentage? Win-loss record? PFF grades? EPA? CPOE? Asking because this was asked before and... well... it ended up that the folks down on him didn't care about the numbers as much as they cared that they just couldn't get passed his size regardless of how he performed. It would be nice to get a straight-forward answer to that without the usual deflection and redirecting.
