Panthers dealing with old demons

I wanted to make a thread to highlight some of the recent accomplishments of this team. I think most everyone has been impressed with Wilks performance so far, but it's more than just having us in the playoff conversation. Here are a few trends we have bucked since he took over, but I'm sure there are others I've missed so feel free to add any other trends you've seen reverse course recently. 

 

1)we finally got a win over Brady in a BUCS uniform. We took him back to .500 all time in our house

2) We have defended the bank, we have a three game home winning streak and have won all our divisional home games. When building a winning culture you start here and Wilks is undefeated at home

3) We beat Russel Wilson, and the Seahawks...AND the broncos. I don't have to explain to most of you how much we've struggled vs seattle in the past. Going in there and winning a game was a huge statement win by this team. Beating them and the Broncos feels cathartic, old demons put to rest

4)We won a game yesterday despite allowing more than 17 points, another trend put to rest hopefully

5)We played the best first quarter in a long long time yesterday. All three phases were hitting and Seattle was not ready. 

6)We are getting hot at the right time. Did either of the first two Rhule seasons have more than 1 or 2 wins after the halfway point in the season? We're back to being a November/December team

But the most important thing isn't a stat you can point to. It isn't a specific player, or even the win loss column. The most important thing is that yesterday that team embodied Keep Pounding. It wasn't just a mantra written on the jersey, it was a spirit you could feel on every run play. That last TD drive we could not be stopped, and that's the kind of energy you need this time of year. 

 

If Wilks keeps them playing like this we are NOT a team you want to come play against in the playoffs. 

 

 

 

 

 

You did forget 1. That win yesterday pretty much put a nail in the tank coffin. 

 

But yeah, what we saw yesterday was classic Playoff Football. Been a while since we've seen such good all-around play. Proud of the team, and Wilks.

 

I will add. Penalties. We have got to get those under control.

    • Okay then, tell me what your expectations are for Thielen, XL, and Coker this year If someone wants to come out there and say they think Thielen is only getting 600-700 yards this year, then yea, I'm going to then expect T-Mac to get to 1,000. If someone wants to say they think XL or Coker is going to fall back to 300 yards this year, then yea, I'm going to expect T-Mac to get to 1,000. People seem to think I'm making excuses for why T-Mac can't get there, but it's the literal opposite, my expectations for him stem from my belief our other WRs for the first time in who knows how long.   We finally have a legitimate and full WR room, not sure that's happened since the Smitty and Moose days.  It's going to make them all better players, but it will also suppress all of their stats as they're all going to cannibalize each other a little bit.    
    • It’s certainly not my shining moment. But I still made it. Running the Sacramento marathon in December and hope to have a more Jake Delhomme-level of stardom there. The Everyman that overcomes obstacles to almost reach the pinnacle of success only to have it taken away by Adam Vinateri.
