We will be in the Super Bowl next year


Recommended Posts

History repeats! The last time the Tampa bay Bucs won a Super Bowl we were in the Super Bowl the next season . Nfc south teams have a short history of following back to back super bowls , when we went to the Super Bowl the falcons went the next year , the trend has a chance to repeat its self . This off-season is hands down the best off-season I have seen as a panther fan we rebuilt our whole team and this draft we most likely hit every round getting the best player available . Key players like Tommy tremble , shi smith and chuba Hubbard are most likely all going to be late round stars , we didn’t draft for need we built that in free agency with key players like rashan Melvin ( no one is talking about so underrated) aj boye , Denzel perryman, Hassan reddick , Dan Arnold which has a chance to be our next Greg Olsen . All comes down to Sam darnold which easily could have been a first round draft pick this year because of his age it’s like a got a big time steal guy has all the tools coming from a terrible offense , could be the biggest steal . Adding these weapons to mccaffrey, dj Moore , Robby Anderson lsu beast terrace Marshall , David Moore which is so underrated . This will be the last year we have joe Brady , cheerish , what better way to get a head coach shot than winning a super bowl . I feel a magical year . 8 of those loses came late and by a td or less sounds familiar? 2014 vibes ? What happened the next year 2015 15-1 super bowl appearance what if I told you this team is better ? Really all comes down to daronold but I think we hit the lotto . I will be betting $100 on us winning the super bowl . Don’t be shocked if it’s a jags panthers or panthers patriots

lol

only $100? Why not $100,000? Doesn’t sound like faith to me!

Just a forewarning - the ‘fire everyone!’ threads after our first loss, are usually bans.

Dude don’t got the money , I had10k in doge coin last year sold when it hit 3 cents for 35k but if I would have held I’d have 15 mill lol 100 is a easy risk

It's a long shot, but if like 6 of our new additions come in and play like All-Pros, I can see it happening!

I’ll tell you a story , I remember 2014 after that seahawk lost I was like only if we added some key players we will be amazing . I was at school at Texas a&m with the girl I was dating at Buffalo Wild Wings and I was not surprised and was not happy when we played the jags and won , it didn’t hit me until we beat the Texans , remember cam did that flip and when I seen the jags beat the 49ers I was like maybe the jags ain’t bad and we’re actually very good , we were very good loved being at the game vs the giants when Odell and Norman went at it . I got those vibes this year I think we are legit . Getting rid of hurney was such a blessing and well all know that adding Scott as gm might be the best move 2nd to adding rhule as a head coach

If we win the Super Bowl this year I’ll get Rhule and Fitterer’s faces tattooed on my ass.  I would love it to be true, but we’re still a year or two away without a miracle run.  But that’s the thing, anything is possible in this sport.  Let me get those tattoos

    • It all sounds great. The only unknowns are injuries and how they will need to be addressed. Horn has a history as does the newly added Jaelen Phillips and Cooker has yet to play an entire season as well. And then there are the Ikey's - totally unexpecteded injuries that put a major wrench in your plans. I do think its a great plan though.
    • If we pay Bryce like a franchise QB we're completely and utterly buttfuged.
    • In my view, the realistic expectation for this team to compete will start 2027.  At that time, I think we could be looking at the following (this is HIGHLY speculative):   QB:  You know, Bryce.  I am not a fan, but they don't ask me.  But there is reason for hope--and here it is.  Bryce will be entering his prime.  Since we are likely to pay him, there will be changes that I include throughout this exercise--I realistically speculate on what they are going to do with Bryce and then I realistically speculate on what means in terms of the cap and other positions. Bryce HAS IMPROVED.  The idea is that if you give him more weapons and protection, that will continue.  His career:   At this rate, if his growth continues, by 2027 we should expect nearly 30 TDs and about 12 Interceptions and a Rating of about 98.  His completion percentage should settle at 65-66% or so.  If that happens, you can win with it. The following stats demonstrate how the Panthers will be able to afford it (and re-sign Ickey) My guess is they will require about $60m per year. This is why rookies who can play are important.  It also helps us see the blueprint.  You may disagree, but this is the cruel realities of the salary cap. Robert Hunt:  Cut post June 1 and save $19m.  Who do you replace him with?  Ickey. Tershawn Wharton:  Cutting him saves nearly $15m.  We should all hope to see Aaron Hall (UDFA) make the roster and play well.  Regardless, this is a position we would likely have to address in the next draft. Trevin Moehrig:  Cutting Moehrig as the starting SS saves this team $16.5m.   Ransom will be on year 3 of a cheap rookie deal and should be more than ready to take the reins.  their styles are similar.  Furthermore, FS Wheatley (R, 4th round) will be starting. Taylor Moton:  So much depends on his knee, but I have an idea that he can play another 3 years.  extending him could save the team about $5m per year.  Cutting him outright would save the team about $21m. In the most drastic situation, we have to cut Moton and the other three players mentioned.   We would need (in all likelihood) a starting DT and RT.  It is possible that the DE would be addressed, but Wharton's production (so far) could be equaled by a rookie.  Look for a cut free agent and a 2027 draft pick here.  If you cut Moton, you save $21m, and that would be the only big hole to fill.  Having Ickey at RG gives you some depth at T, and Ickey could be the guy.  T could be pick in the 2027 draft (first round), fwiw.  It saves you $21m while costing you $5m, for example. We get younger, creating a core of Freeling, Hecht, and the RT first rounder in 2027) along with Ekownu (second contract in the $15m range, and Lewis, whose contract would be in the $16m range if not extended.)  The OL cuts (Hunt, Moton) would save $40m.  The OL would get younger and still solid with veterans at G.   By cutting Wharton (no brainer if his play stays the same) and Moehrig (good player--but we have Ransom on a rookie contract who would not be that much of a drop off--if any) in addition to Hunt and Moton, we would save over $70m in cap room. We would be able to give Bryce bag  and we would have enough to re-sign Ickey (if the knee is not too risky) to a Guard contract (probably at a discount, coming off that injury).  Furthermore, we could add a RT in the draft (or a RG if Ickey moves to RT) and that would be the only large hole to fill. Correct my logic if you see issues-- On defense, in addition to the aforementioned, Scott ($2m contract) is out, replaced by a 4th round rookie contract. CB Jackson's contract ($7.8m) expires and he is (possibly) replaced by a rookie contract.  At Edge, patrick Jones II's $10m contract expires and he is likely a reserve, and his role is absorbed by Phillips, Scourton, Princely, and possible an UDFA like Isaiah Smith or a 2027 draft pick.   These productive developmental players over the past 2 drafts will pay huge dividends.  On paper, I see the team getting much younger and possibly better while cutting nearly $100m and reallocating that money to get more production.
