When do you think we'll see the Panthers in the Super Bowl again?

In the grand scheme of things the Panthers are actually well ahead of pace as it goes to appearing in Super Bowls...

The Panthers have appeared in 2 Super Bowls and in most cases, despite many many decades of extra tenure, only 18 teams have appeared in 3 or more.

No team with fewer years in the NFL has appeared in more Super Bowls than the Panthers...

...conversely -- 3 teams with longer tenure have been to the same # (2) of Super Bowls (Buccaneers/1976, Bears/1920, Falcons/1966)...

...4 teams with a LOT longer tenure have only 1 Super Bowl (Cardinals/1920, Saints/1967, Jets/1960, Chargers/1960)...

...and 2 teams with MUCH longer-tenure have never been to a Super Bowl (Lions/1930 and Browns/1950). 

Be careful what you whine about...

If you're going to say the Browns haven't been since 1950, then you have to treat the Ravens as an expansion team starting right around the time we did.

It’s an impossible question for any fan base to answer. There is so much that has to go right for a team to get to a super bowl. 
 

I can say with confidence that we aren’t going until we find a top ten qb. Whether that he by trade or draft, we need to find that piece first and foremost.

Yea but those Super Bowl appearances were under the previous owner. The new owner hired a guy who didn’t beat a ranked team as a college coach to a top 10 salaried contract.

The first AFL-NFL Championship (retroactively called Super Bowl I) wasn't until 1967, so it would be disingenuous to go back further than that year, without including the championship winners prior that time. 

If we did, we'd soon discover teams like the Browns, Lions and Bears were often among the best teams (league champions) in the NFL/AAFC.

TL/DR:  History Matters

This.  We can talk about probabilities based on past performance but the reality is we have a Head Coach that is in over his head and has made horrible choices for the last two years.

Until Matt Rhule is gone this team is going nowhere fast.

      OTA's

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      I think he's gone, and rightfully so, if he turns in another losing record. The "talented roster," regardless of how true or not, is a double-edged sword. If the roster is so much improved now from 202X then why are you still producing losing seasons? On one hand, maybe that's what needs to happen. Have the GM hire the new coach, and then have the new coach pick his guy to run his system. That is typically how it works in the NFL. Not the forced inheritance deal we have had in place.

      The running back situation....

      Hinging on Brooks to be our spark...be good if it happens... but not holding my breath....RB next draft. Morgan gambled...it would be a 2 year payoff if thing happened.

      Only way Canales is fired is if we are attrocious everywhere....  defense /special teams and offense..  There are enough "questions" on if BY9 is the guy that ownership wouldn't fire the coach for "just" mid qb play.  Especially with as talented a roster that has played "well enough" to win some tough football games and hang in there against the top tier of the NFL ...(mostly).   Now total team suckage..yeah .. but I don't see that happening.
