you have to consider the "Panther way."  We will lose to the Bucs and then blow out the Saints on the last game of the season in a meaningless contest (since Moore took his helmet off).

If we lose to a decimated Bucs team with how our Running game has gone, then we don't deserve to be in the playoffs.

Julio Jones

Julio Jones (knee) is questionable for Tampa Bay's Week 17 game against Carolina.

As usual. Jones does tend to play when he practices and he practiced all three days this week, so we'd call him on the optimistic side of questionable. He remains a bad fantasy play as he has not scored since Week 10 and hasn't gone over 53 yards since Week 1. Jones' major fantasy gravity at the moment is cutting snaps for Russell Gage. 

Buccaneers LT Donovan Smith (foot) is questionable for Week 17 against the Panthers.

Smith got in three limited practices and should be regarded as likely to play. He missed last week's game with this listing, and Josh Wells dislocated his kneecap leading to fringe NFL tackle play for the Bucs. Smith has not had a good season, but he should be an upgrade for that as Tampa looks to keep Carolina's defense off Tom Brady

Buccaneers DT Vita Vea (calf) is questionable for Week 17's game against Carolina.

Vea has sat each of the last two weeks, but practiced on a limited basis all three times leading up to this game and should be regarded as on the optimistic side of questionable. It's perfect timing for Tampa in what profiles as a must-win game, as Carolina's rushing attack needs to be shut down and Vea is one of the few humans on this planet who can single-handedly boost a run defense.

They will actually be quite healthy 

Carlton Davis will be out however could be big for DJ Moore

Your point?

The Bucs are still not 100%. 

And they still won't stop the Run this Sunday.

I am gonna go Steelers type game. We just can't get the run established and Brady is able to get a little traction against our thing secondary. 

 

Yeah unfortunately I think this and the refs will push Brady to another playoff appearance

Stat to know: The Buccaneers are 0-7 this season when allowing 20 or more points and are 7-1 when holding opponents under 20 points.

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/35343574/nfl-week-17-game-picks-schedule-guide-fantasy-football-tips-odds-injuries-stats-know

I see the Panthers scoring 21 in the 1st half and dominating TOP.

I hope you're right. With this team either everything clicks or nothing clicks. The times it doesn't is when you have every reason to think it should. When you think things won't work, we go beast mode.

We already don't deserve to be in the playoffs.  We did run well against them in the W before.  I do not see that changing.

      Who is/will be an 'All time great' thats on our roster right now?

      By Basbear · Posted

      gosh no one cares about the OGs...   Id list hunt here too, if not for missing 95% of the season.   Best I can say, Tri Turner was the best OG in panthers history if you factor in career length. Wharton was super solid, but never elite. Norwell while having a 1st all-pro, only played 2.5 starting years.    If lewis stays on the panthers and keeps his play lvl at 2025, his path is right there and easy. In 2028 he could be the best OG in panthers history.    Dang if panthers or NFL don't have long great careers.....its sooo rare.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By Basbear · Posted

      All true, Stafford and Mccvay were both talking about "retiring" during those future picks too, I member. In my computer when you make future trade, I feel you have to factor in the worst case or close to it from your side. The big issue for the panthers, maybe even now is that they have not proven they can draft well enough to trade. I know that Dan and company have not traded future picks and they seem to always want 7-8 picks overall. They like to trade 3 picks for 3 picks or 2 for 2.   It would have been great to flip BB for that haul and use those Rams picks instead of the first overall pick...... Verse wise, Jesus what a beast....... Garrett is the top dawg and all, but man this is rough for me. I also noticed this about the panthers they are pedo bears, they like dem young. So a 25 year old verse would have gotten gigged with the panthers. Even with NIL and 6th year, and even coofus fallback, panthers prefer younger players. Monroe Freeling (Round 1, Pick 19 | OT, Georgia): 21 years old Lee Hunter (Round 2, Pick 49 | DT, Texas Tech): 22 years old (estimated) Chris Brazzell II (Round 3, Pick 83 | WR, Tennessee): 22 years old Will Lee III (Round 4, Pick 129 | CB, Texas A&M): 21-22 years old (estimated) Sam Hecht (Round 5, Pick 144 | C, Kansas State): 21-22 years old (estimated) Zakee Wheatley (Round 5, Pick 151 | S, Penn State): 22 years old (estimated) Jackson Kuwatch (Round 7, Pick 227 | LB, Miami OH): 22-23 years old   Tetairoa McMillan, WR (Arizona) — Age: 22 Nic Scourton, EDGE (Texas A&M) — Age: 20 Princely Umanmielen, EDGE (Ole Miss) — Age: 21 Trevor Etienne, RB (Georgia) — Age: 20 Lathan Ransom, SAF (Ohio State) — Age: 23 Cam Jackson, DT (FL)- age 22 Mitchell Evans, TE (ND)- age 22 Horn-22   Fitterererere just turned out to be a awful hire, too green, too willing to please, no sense of what talent looks like on teams other than Seahawks, too much pressure, didnt have the correct network of coaches and FO office people. Kick was herniay leftd him with a bare bones talent to start with and besides taking a bottom level team and improving it, he made it even worse AND trading prime draft picks to prolong the timeline to fix. People forget Dan didn't have the 1st overall pick and 39th overall(that dude looking good for bears) to repair this team. Dan could have traded that 1st overall for a proven 1k WR, 9th overall, future 1st and future 2nd......

      When I read the OP I was thinking more of the Franchise than the league but I agree.  To me DB is the only guy right now but I could see TMac being on the list.
