Do you think we have a realistic shot after a loss tomorrow?

It’s Saturday not much to talk about.

Let’s be real, the Panthers will be 4-6 tomorrow.

At the same time I expect a win vs. WFT and Miami putting us at 6-6. Although I must say the Dolphins win over the Ravens was…weird.

That leaves the Panthers 6-6 vs. 

4-4 Falcons (home)

5-3 Bills (away)

6-2 Bucs (home)

5-3 Saints (away)

6-2 Bucs (away)

The Panthers will pretty much need to win 3/5 of these last games, but more likely 4/5 and that’s…hard to see. Yea yea any given Sunday and all that. But this is discussing logical outcomes.

(very) General outlooks:

NFC South

Good news: 

The Saints have roughly just as tough of a remainder schedule.

Bad news:

Even though we know they’re a lock…the Bucs have it easy peasy.

Meh:

Falcons….slightly easier schedule than Saints. Still very much in position to knock Panthers out but I don’t see it happening. One of the few teams (literally 3) with an oline ranked worse by one spot than the Panthers. lol

Also, one of the leagues worst defenses. The fact they’re 4-4 is dumbfounding.

Outside the south, NFC top 3 contenders:

Vikings:

Relatively tough schedule. Don’t see it for them.

Seahawks:

This team is the issue imo. Wilson is back, oline and defense isn’t great lately just below average overall,  have 3 very easy games left, but are only one win behind the Panthers. Personally I see it coming down to them and just maybe (unlikely) 49ers being the only obstacle.

49ers:

Again one win behind the Panthers but have 4 reasonably easy teams left. They also have a top 10 oline. However more importantly, a below average defense that seems to be getting worse.

Yes. No more injuries and 9 and 8 is possible

It’s very possible… 9 wins gets you in and one thing people are forgetting is there is only one bye per conference.

If the bye is locked up for a team by week 17 then you’ll see a lot of teams that have already clinched rest guys.

The Panthers stand a good shot at rolling into week 17 going against a Bucs team who isn’t playing anyone…

Soooo for example:

Arizona - Loss

Washington - Win

Miami - Win

Atlanta - Win

Bills - Loss

Bucs - Loss

Saints - Win

Bucs - Win

Now we’re sitting at 9-7 and going into the postseason as the sixth or seventh seed.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tbe · Posted

      Sure, that is possible. That’s what, an extra 55 yards a game on average and 7 more TDs? What if he’s just 15th?  I imagine they would extend him in that situation due to the belief that he’ll keep trending up. maybe a 3 year contract to prove he can be top 10? Sounds like a Tepper plan.
