If Arizona wins tomorrow I think we could win the south next week with a win and New Orleans loss. 

according to this playoff machine thing it wouldnt be locked unless Atlanta also lost to arizona next week.  Oddly, In the playoff machine thing, if tampa loses out, Atlanta wins the last 2, (last week against tampa), and we lose to the saints who lose next week, but beat us in the last week, the saints somehow win the division, but if tampa beat atlanta in the last game of the season even if we lose, we're in.  This division is all sorts of fugy.

If we win next we we’d both have 7 wins even if Atlanta won out. I think we’d have tiebreaker over them based on division record. I could be wrong.

I didn't believe it at first but that's actually right. In that scenario, Carolina, New Orleans and Atlanta would be tied at 7-10. The first tie breaker for the division is record between the tied teams. In the scenario you outlined, those would be:

Carolina: 2-2

Atlanta: 1-3

New Orleans: 3-1

That would be a really sucky way to lose the division but amazingly in play.

We have two scenarios. We win out or Tampa loses out(plus the saints loose to Philly). Anything else and we don’t make the playoffs. We can lose to the saints, if we beat Tampa next week and still make it in. Caveat: All our hopes would be resting on Atlanta at that point.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      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.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      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.
