2021 Carolina Panthers Schedule and some thoughts on it

No Patriots pre season game-first time in a long time--we keep our sister team, the Steelers. 8 home games, 9 road games...Darnold's first pre season game at Indy--so we will not seen him until the 2nd---will the 2nd preseason game become like the former 3rd preseason game--with starters playing the most? 

They should make both teams play 8 home games and the remaining game in Europe, Mexico, or Canada, for example.  No team should get an extra home game.

Late bye week should help, rather have it after the midpoint than before...

Could/should get wins over NYJ, HOU, PHI, NYG, ATL twice, ARI, WAS, MIA... 

Can we split with both NO & TB? Can we stifle Cam’s return to BoA?

Doesn’t seem unreasonable, unrealistic, or unreachable... that’s 12-5 without trying to Homer some blind optimism...

 

maybe a little blind......

That was a hidden benefit of the 17 game schedule I hadn't really thought about. Half the league is going to get awarded an extra home game. That's a very real revenue boost and a small, but not insignificant performance advantage

12-5 prediction for a team that everyone on our schedule is going to be looking at that game as either a definite win or at least a potential win... yeah, maybe a little blind.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
