An extra intra-conference match up.  We would play the Texans this year.  Then the schedule rotates divisions.  I think the team is determined by the same place finish.  The Texans and Panthers finished 3rd in their respective divisions.

FYI, this sets up perfectly for an 18 game season down the road.  It would be one more intra-conference team being from the only division not on the schedule, just finished playing or scheduled to play the following season.  So If that were the case, the Panthers 18th opponent would be the same place finishing team from the AFC North.  We just played the AFC West, our 17th game is versus the AFC South and are playing the AFC East this year.

In case you were wondering, that 18th team would have been Cleveland.  We will enjoy our one extra game for now. 😄

I don't like it, but that's because I've got a boomer mentality when it comes to number of games and how it impacts records, etc.  To me 16 has always seemed perfect.  I do wonder if this will make it slightly easier to get a ticket to a game in a season with 9 homes games vs 8.  And with an added game, it gives Teddy an outside of chance of getting to 16 TD passes in a season.

On the other hand I love the new playoff format adding a team and only giving 1 team a bye week.

      There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
