The Athletic has updated their power rankings and also listed a season prediction for each team

Guess who is last? You guess the Panthers? WRONG

 

We are 29 BABY!!!

Quote

29. Carolina Panthers

Perhaps no team will feel the pain of a shortened offseason more than Carolina. They’re the only team with a new head coach, offensive play-caller, defensive play-caller and starting quarterback. If the line can protect, the offense has a chance to be fun. But it would take a minor miracle for the defense to be even mediocre. This season is about Matt Rhule setting the culture and the Panthers finding out which young players they can build around.

 

 

Suck it, Jacksonville. 

Suck it, Washington

Suck it, New York Jets

 

That is all.

Guess the year

24. Carolina Panthers

Week 1 opponent: at Jacksonville Jaguars

What's good: Luke Kuechly remains one of the best linebackers in football, and the Panthers nabbed another good one in first-round pick Shaq Thompson.

What's bad: Kelvin Benjamin tore his ACL in the preseason, leaving Cam Newton with an even smaller set of receivers. Newton and the defense will have to carry this team.

Hah. Seriously. 2014 we made the playoffs, won a game, played Seattle tough (90 yard pick six was the difference) and had a 5-1 finish. Just because some idiot only looked at our record for the 2015 preview and the injury to KB doesn’t mean our 0-8 finish is being overlooked now. We also won the division with a 7-8-1 record. Two teams in our division this year will likely have 10 wins. I can’t believe I’m even explaining the differences, Lol.

Point is preseason power rankings don't mean poo, especially when there aren't any preseason games.

Yeah, that is a pretty awful way of attempting to get across that message. You could have, I don't know, just said:

      He's handing off play calling duties to fuging Brad Idzik as well so, either that mouth breather can run the playbook and Canales can grow as an all around head coach or it will be a horrible decision and both of them and BY can screw off. I'm fine with that as long as it isn't just another excuse for BY to get another year with another coach worthy of working around his limitations as a qb.

      Not only for Andersen but the whole team, having not beat the Habs this season before tonite.  Shows them that they aren't jinxed.

      I understand why people say things like it could be worse in relation to Tepper but it just doesn't jive for me. Are the optics bad? Yes. Would I want her to be the owner of my team? No. But I mean she's only been owner for a year and the Colts overall are a better run organization. As far as I know they've also never had the distinction of having the worst win percentage in all of professional sports either. Tepper has owned this team for 8 years and about the only thing that has been consistent has been the ability to continue to find different ways to achieve new lows. Even now people are saying things are different yada yada but we said these same things at certain points under Rhule Fitterer and Reich. I'm going to wait to see how the rubber meets the road this upcoming season before I make any strong conclusions about anything in relation to the longevity under this franchise going forward.
