Highest Panthers power ranking I've seen this season

The Athletic has their power rankings out. I scrolled to the bottom to read the Panthers, but I had to scroll back up quite a bit. I have to say I agree with this. I think the Panthers are far from the dumpster fire that other teams are currently. They have the Jets and the Dolphins as the worst in the league, which also sounds right to me.

22. Carolina Panthers

What we learned: They shouldn’t have overthought it with the game on the line. With 1:23 left, the Panthers were down 34-30 and faced a fourth-and-inches from the Raiders’ 46. Instead of giving the ball to Christian McCaffrey, new offensive coordinator Joe Brady called a fullback dive to Alex Armah. He got stuffed for no gain, and Matt Rhule lost his NFL debut. Despite the questionable call, the Panthers’ overall performance was encouraging. They scored on their first four possessions and ranked sixth league-wide in offensive EPA per snap. The defensive talent is lacking, but they could be a fun, frisky team.

The thing about week 1 is it really depends on how good the team you played against is. If you’re honest with yourself, I don’t think you would describe the Raiders as a good team. 
 

Which means we lost to a bad west coast team at home week 1.

I don't think they are a good or bad team. I think they are mediocre, probably around the 20th best team in the league. They are no where near how bad the Jets and Dolphins are.

Agree on the Jets. I do think the Dolphins are a QB away from being a good team(who might be on the roster). They came on strong last year and added the pieces on defense this year.

      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.

      This is a toughie because I wonder what a guy like Canales thinks about redemption stories for addiction issues. Also, I think this is a case of 1 player getting caught, and not being naive enough to think this isn't more common in college than we think. I'd toss a 3rd rounder out there. 2026 is essentially a redshirt season regardless, so he's not taking over for any NFL QB next year. Best case, he's ready to go in 2027 if we pass on Bryce's extension. Worst case, he's our future backup QB2. Kid has the tools to be an NFL QB. I do think we could somehow land a '26 3rd round pick back in a trade. Our past years' third rounders are: Brazzell Princely Wallace DJ Johnson Matt Corral All this to say, I could see a team like the Jets going w/ a 2nd. They have three FRPs next year.
