Given the Panthers have beaten the Bucs and Saints in the past this year, the playoffs via winning out is a very distinct and not very unlikely possibility.

Now, succeeding in the playoffs is a different story. But deluded in making it, yeah there's a high chance Carolina's in.

With our running game being as dominate as it has and have a 21 point lead with 6mins remaining … pnting the ball had the lowest possible risk. It wasn’t a bad call as we can tell by the results of the game.

Agreed - "smart decision" I referred to was to punt. I do trust our kicker, but pinning the Lions deep made more sense overall I think.

Right now, we have a decent chance of making the playoffs.  Probably 2 in 5.  Tampa is worse than we are.  Of course, its still Brady, and they may win next week, but I certainly wouldn't say its deluded to think we have a shot.  A good shot.

The game plan Wilks is using and the strengths of the run blocking OL with the speed pass rushing defense play to the Panthers favor in the NFC.

Only 1 team will be in the Panthers way... the 49ers. That is only due to the CMC trade. If the CMC trade never happened, the Panthers have everything lining up in their favor.

They will likely get destroyed against a few AFC teams in the SB though. But nothing to lose for the Panthers.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
