Isn't Carolina something like 13-2-2 against Florida over the past 2-3 seasons?

Considering we play them just 3x a year in normal years, that record can't be right... But I would think our record against them has been pretty damn good lately, they haven't been good before this year and even now that they are good we're 3-0-1 against them...

How was that a 4-4 they had a penalty prior to the scum and then initiated it? Irrelevant but seriously.

Just rewatched the lead up to the scrum and they definitely should have had 2 panthers in the box. Hornqvist straight punches Aho in the face after Aho barely even checked him. Staal pushes Hornqvist down and Hornqvist slips away like wtf did I do?

Then after its calmed down and separated and aho is trying to skate away hornqvist goes after him again.

No way Staal should have been in the box and it should have been 5-3. All he really did was push Hornqvist off Aho. I don't think he ever threw a punch.

No penalty should after rewatching though, they had a guy in the way.

I just rewatched it myself, I still don't understand how it wasn't at least a 5-4.....

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
