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

[panthersgreenville]

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.

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

ANY GIVEN SUNDAY

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.

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.

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

Again I dont gamble but how is that right?  You get 3 points for home but they are 3-4 and cannot pass for poo

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.

Nothing is guaranteed in this league except one thing. You get a trophy if you win the last game. First overall picks bust, undrafted players become all-pro, NFL superstars get injured, etc. JUST WIN.

Still quite a bad team but maybe there’s a little more hope to not be the worst, if that’s what you’re into.

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.

I don't know if I'd go that far.

We'll likely win some games, but I'd hold off on buying the playoff tickets just yet.

I’d be very surprised if we don’t have a top 10 pick this year.
