This Panthers team might be a hard team to beat going forward

Phillip Walker is the wild card here, (he’s a 26 year old man, not a 12 year old, so yes, I prefer Philip to PJ, and besides, Phillip Walker sounds more like a NFL QB and less like an XFL one) Anyway if Phillip can keep making the kind of throws he made yesterday..

 A beastly O line? Check. What appears to be a one/two punch running game? Check. 

A monster defense? Check.

A great WR in Moore with some solid complimentary WRs around him? Check.

A QB with something to prove and a head coach who would practically sell his soul to become the actual HC of this team going forward?! Check and check.

Let’s assume we keep up this level of play going forward, what weaknesses do we have? Seattle, Bengals and Ravens, if we lose those three and win the rest of the schedule, we are 9-8 and NFCS champs.

The Bucs are a deeply flawed team this year and they were facing a wild card. Still crazy we beat that defense and it's a good thing to see but... We may be facing winning enough games to get knocked out of the top 10 while having a deeply flawed team at key positions. Winning some isn't our friend this year.

I dont gamble but just saw on the athletic we are getting 6.5 points for sunday?  What the fug?  What am I missing as that sounds like the easy bet of the year. 

Falcons favored by 6 at home from what I saw yesterday.  Seems about right

It goes to show that with this defense, establishing the run, and having average or “game manager” quality QB play, this team is competitive. (Not different to what a lot of us thought prior to the season, and hoped we could get from Baker)
 

Let’s see if Walker can do similar each week. If he could do so, he could “Rodney Peete” for Corral or another QB in this draft.

We went from the worst team ever before yesterday’s game to a playoff contender in some peoples eyes.  That’s why the NFL is the best.  Even if it’s lunacy 

That's why good coaching who make great personell decisions are vital to winning in this league. 

You can't be swayed by fandoms wanting you to play their heros, you can't be swayed by contracts, you've got to put who gives you the best chance to win. And the last 2 seasons PJ has looked the best Qb on the roster the few times he got to play.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
