General Poll Consensus: Panthers end season as the 6th worst team in the NFL.

"Aggregating several rankings, the Panthers come out to an average of No. 27 (last week: No. 27) in the 32-team NFL."

I didn't post much from the article. Feel free to click on it to view the entire thing. No one had us ranked higher than 26 (CBS.com) on the power poll. We received our lowest grade (30) from NFL.com. We averaged out as the 6th worst team in the the NFL. Based on the way last season ended, I'm not so sure we'd beat any of the 5 teams below us if we played today.

I know we just have to be patient and realize that Rhule's process is working, we just don't see the results yet.

No way there are that many teams worse than Carolina. From week 10 on they’ve been a dumpster fire on a train wreck in a nuclear holocaust.

They were being very generous to us.

I agree.

Can anyone on this forum name 5 teams worse than we are at the present time?

JAX, DET, HOU, NYJ, and NYG are in front of us in the draft. We beat two of them to start the season, but both teams got better as the season progressed. The Giants handed us one of our worst defeats of the year. I honestly don't think we'd beat any of them if had to play them this Sunday.

The truth is, right now, there is not one single nfl team they could beat 

…not one 

[Carolina Cajun]

We havent shown life since arizona TWO MONTHS AGO!  Literally blown out every week.  Jacksonville beat Indy who was playing for their lives, could we beat them, Nope, Next Detroit...did anyone in the poll see how they played down the stretch for Dan Campbell?  No way on earth we beat that team, they atleast had pride and were wanting to build something.  Houston and Jets are MAAAYYYBEEEs, I think Jets at this point would smash us, but Houston we could go toe to toe with.  Giants?  They skull drug us.  Falcons?  Same.  We MIGHT not be the worst current team in the NFL, but we're for fug sure in the bottom 3.

If the NFL would stop the game at halftime, we could beat a lot of teams 

[BlitzMonster]

JAX, DET, HOU all played with heart at the end of the season.

Jets have a talented rookie QB that will get better if he is supported (OL, good WR)

The only team with a poor record that I think might be behind us would be the Giants.  And that's only because their starting QB got a neck injury and his health status is up-in-the-air.  

If Daniel Jones comes back fine next season, I'd say the Panthers are #32.

way too generous 

[cookinbrak]

So, we're the 6th worst team and we have the 6th draft pick. Nostradamus level poo right there.

[CarolinaNCSU]

Maybe fair for the season as a whole, but can't help to feel like the end of season & outlook right now are bottom 3. 

[CRA]

Lineup on a neutral field tomorrow and I’m only favoring us vs the Jags and Giants.  Giants beat us but they have trended worse. 

Hou and Lions were better teams by seasons end

There should be a tournament where the bottom teams get to play for the #1 draft pick. This helps avoid tanking and gives fans a reason to watch their losing team play for something!

Next year, we shoot for Number One!
