This topic got off the rails quickly and is headed a completely different direction.

 

Anywho, it's a reach to compare Burrow and Baker. That said, if we have the healthy WR and RB group, a little luck with the line staying healthy where the rookie LT takes to it quickly, it shouldn't be a shitshow offense we saw last year or for large stretches of 2020. Thats worth a few wins as we let waay too many go last year with abominations on O.

The defense isn't poo either, thin as can be though up front. Part of the luck is having the right depth for the inevitable injuries. If things broke right, barstool isn't the only ones to think we have a punchers chance. Heard a few on the radio say we are a dark horse mostly cause of the defense, CMC, with the assumption that Baker is at least a top 20 QB. With the issues in ATL, no Peyton in NO, and the greybeards in Tampa getting hurt already, it could quickly turn into the another case where a sub 500 club could make it into the playoffs. The bucs are on Brady or bust for year 3. Father time will get to him someday, and if that's this year, the division is wide open.

Now it's a long shot, but so we're the bungles last year. Imo, it's all on Baker to make this work.

I just want competent, competitive football for now.  Playoffs and everything else can follow later.  I just don't want to watch a QB running for his life, constantly turning the ball over and wearing out our defense.  It was unwatchable at times last year...

Not sure but more times then not Vegas is dead on.  

It was 8.... Won 15...

Your statement is completely incorrect..... 272 games this upcoming season.... Even accounting for the .5 lines they are leaving out SEVENTY TWO wins with the current line.... 

 

Vegas is all about betting lines and heard fan opinion...

So Vegas had the Rams beating the Bengals in the SB last year?

Episode 5 Reaction GIF by The Office

Rams were a top 3 team to win the super bowl the Bengals bottom 3

 

All in all sure there are exceptions but I bet if you go through the win totals preseason they would be more right then wrong

 

They had us at 6 IIRC  edit it was 5.5

You are proving my point, this thread is about two things projected win totals and Vegas season start super bowl "odds".

 

In 2015 Vegas odds had the Panthers winning 8 games.... (We won 15).

 

The highest projected win totals for the Panthers....

 

9.5 (2004)

and 

 

11 (2016) 

 

Tell me again how they are always spot on?

I said "for the most part" I sure as hell said there were not 100%,  I clearly indicted there were exceptions to the rules.  But for the most part they are pretty accurate

I'll import a larger data set and use an excel SQL spreadsheet to break it down for you over a larger sample size.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By TD alt · Posted

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
