That 1996 team was 12-4. 12-4. Do NOT compare this team to that team. The 1996 team deserved to be in the playoff and beat the Cowboys. 
This team is only potentially in the playoffs because the division is poo. 

They were not favored and dallas won the SB the year before. It was a big upset, similar if they match up this year. Personally not scared of any NFC team expect philly and if the QB gods bless 49ers....them too. Most are saying panthers have NO chance, they are wrong and that 96 game is proof..

Main reason is to show whats possible in the playoffs

Top 10 offense and top 10 defense that 1996 Panthers team had. Doesn’t matter if the Cowboys were favored then. It is not the same when they are favored now. So stop comparing the two. 
This team offense and defense is in the 20s. We have no chance to beat the Cowboys, a team that beat the Eagles and is averaging 30 points a game. Top 10 offense and defense. 
Wilks wants to run the ball. No gonna be able to do that only against the Cowboys. 
They are a Super Bowl contender. 
But you keep believing, foolishly, that this team has a chance to do anything in the playoffs. 
I’ll keep living in reality.

My 73 year old dad is in town visiting the family for Christmas (I live in San Antonio now (barf). And we were at dinner tonight reminiscing about that 96 game. Dad bought us great tickets for that game and we were talking about how Deion got kicked out or had to leave the game lol. Goddamnit if we get in and play the Cowboys in the playoffs. Let us win that game. I will walk up and down the street here in full Panthers regalia. I’ll have my 9 on me just in case lol.

Dude stop. Yeah those are full year rankings but the second half of the season were a top 10 team on both sides of the ball. Especially the offense has exploded. Get that Rhule stank off of you and get on board with a really good team, who is peaking at exactly the right time. Why not us?

Wilks is 5-5 not a really good side and we’ve been punched in the mouth by better sides. We do well against poo defences

Thinking about buying some playoff game tickets thru ticket master or seatgeek.  

How does it work if we don't make the playoffs?  Do they refund the full price, or do they subtract fees from the refund?  

Wait till they go on sale for face value to the general public and try and snag some. I think they've held some back for that

    • We've never seen them outside of the structure of two very well ran organizations I'll give you that. And yes they are long in the tooth. I do think they are more than capable of getting a franchise turned around in short term capacity though. They are by no means a long term solution.
    • You're not making a good-faith argument by blaming literally everything on the quarterback when the defense gave him a fat 38 seconds to overcome its ineptitude, but it seems you're dead-set on blaming him for any problem the team encounters. In this case, it's not warranted. Sometimes it is. But he had no time to throw (pressured on 46% of all dropbacks, an insane amount) and that's simply not all his fault -- particularly when they rush 4 or less and are in the backfield in 1.5s or less. Should we have gotten more than 0 yards? Sure! But he hit a WR in the hands on fourth down and it was dropped. Not his fault. He missed one throw on second down but I attribute first down to a bad play call and third down to poor pass protection. I would've called some quick slants, personally, but it really seems you're saying: - playcalling: Bryce's fault - poor pass protection: Bryce's fault - defensive choking away a lead: Bryce's fault, not the defense - Horn dropping a pass: Bryce's fault It's a great way to garner support on here, because when it comes to Bryce, logic takes such a backseat to context that it's not even in the same vehicle. Plenty of games can be attributed to him. Can't take anyone seriously who solely blames him for that one. 
    • I don't see how you can logically make that argument when the team beat two of the top teams in the entire league during the regular season.  Now imagine the additional games we would have won against absolute tip top competitors like SF and SEA had we had a professional QB.  You can throw any random stat at the problem you want, but the proof is in the pudding.  We all watched it live.  This roster would have produced 13 wins (wins against SF and SEA, two wins against NO, and would have swept the Bucs) and (almost certainly) a #1 seed with a remotely competent QB.  Those were not games where we needed an all star performance to win.  Those were games where a very, very modest stat line would have netted us an easy win. Nearly every measurable aspect of the team would have been significantly improved with a competent QB.
