I mean, not really. Maybe Carolina falls into a playoff spot by way of the atrocious NFC South but it's a given they'll get killed by actual competent teams. I guess that's a positive/meaningful to some folks.

I'm not a tanker. Just putting it out there.

Houston should have beat Dallas today, they would have if they had just run a QB sneak. Washington beat the Eagles earlier this year. Vikings got ran off the field by the Cowboys a few weeks ago and then stomped by the suddenly good Lions today. No team is invincible, I'm just going to enjoy this ride until it ends.

No disagreement they'll likely get killed by a competent team. If the rest of the NFC south had even 1 team worth a damn, there would be no need to have this discussion, but we really do have a good chance at winning 3 or 4 of the next 4. We're not in a position to tank and get a top 2 or 3 pick with the remainder of our schedule the way it is, so fug it. Let's win the whole fuggin thing.

Theres no need to call out the tankers. Its not like this franchise has a huge history of winning. If youre going to call them out, I hope youre happy with a lower tier QB and continuing not to become a Super Bowl contender because thats most likely what will happen when we dont get our QB.

They aren’t real fans anyways.  No need to check in on them 

Wtf? So because people want their team to get a top qb so they can be better they aren’t fans? I guess the “real” fans are the ones who want them to constantly be mediocre and blindly praise them?

I want a top QB.  Losing in hopes that a top five pick gets you one is stupid.  See - Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, Carson Wentz, etc

      Carolina Panthers a Wild Card Team?

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      It's just a talking head.  Talking about gambling. If anybody takes the under on 4.5 wins, they're most likely losing their money.   So he's only saying if you want to bet on a possible sleeper, take the over.  It's not rocket science.  Pathetic that so many on the huddle have reduced themselves to posting purely trash every time they hit the submit button.

      I mean I think the best case scenario has to hit for the Panthers and everyone else in the NFCS has to hit their worst case scenario.  Personally, I think this is the year that NO finally collapses and I think they finish 4th in the division regardless.  ATL is overrated but still likely a 6-9 win team. TB plays tough football, their defense will be there but their success depends on the offense, they too are a 6-9 win team.  The Panthers are probably 4-6 wins at best. If they find some sort of momentum during the season and get 7-8 wins, and TB and ATL struggle then maybe but I find it very unlikely.

      2025 QB Draft Class

      By 45catfan · Posted

      We screwed up a couple years ago taking Bryce in the first place.  Nobody held a gun to our head to jump from #9 to #1.  Most people who keep up with draft news knew this 2024 QB class was loaded and we should have waited, which I advocated. It was a dumb move and I knew it.  Now we have to roll with Bryce another year.  That's fine, because this 2025 class isn't that great.  I like Ewers, but not super high on him.  If Bryce shows improvement, which I think he will, that should get him at least one more season before we have to decide on if he's the permanent answer or not.  I've said before, the 2026 draft is the next window for a franchise QB if Bryce isn't the answer. Bryce gets this year and next at a minimum.
