Sometimes just one draft slot REALLY matters though.

How long will people drag this out? In 2041, but Justin Herbert!!!  Pete sakes guys, let it go.  Been around 27 years, but that was the one draft picks that has forever haunted us.  Do you think the teams that PASSED on Herbert are still hand wringing to this day?  Also do you think Rhule could have developed him?  Secondly do you think Herbert would hve been good enough to keep Rhule around. 

A lot of 'what ifs', but the Huddle thinks we'd have a couple of Super Bowls had we lost just one more game.  Heck, Herbert hasn't even won a SB with the Chargers yet and they are light years better than we are.

Now that you mention it, I'm sure the Saints and their fans must be high fiving each other that they lost their home finale to the previous bottom feeding divisional team as they stare at another offseason in cap hell with no 1st round pick. Man I wish we could swap places with such an awesome and upward trending team. But us stupid Panthers organization doesn't know any better. 

The loser mentality is so strong amongst some of you.

Until we find a franchise QB of our own we'll continue to have Herbert and Fields talked about. It is what it is.

Until you miss out on the Justin Herbert’s of the world by 1 pick 

It is possible to trade up

ask Andy Reid 

his qB picked at number 10 turned out ok

From Wikipedia 

Eventually, the Chiefs made a deal with the Buffalo Bills for the No. 10 overall selection, trading the Nos. 27 and 91 picks, as well as their 2018 first-round pick, for the right to draft Mahomes.

Why would they not be, it was a meaningless game and it gave the winning team a harder schedule for next season.

Now we get the 2nd place schedule next season. 

After reading what all the Saints fans on the Huddle had to say, I checked what the Saints fans on their board thought. A vast, vast majority of them were far more angry about losing a division game.

Its not only about the draft. With the win will next year play 

Miami, Dallas and Seahawks - Three PO teams (30-21)

Had we lost we would have played 

Arizona, Washington and Jets (19-31) 

Good, I don't want to play crap teams.  I always love beating Dallas anyway!  We beat the Seahawks this year and Miami will be a way more interesting game than the Jets.

      Panthers 2026 schedule

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      In May of 2026, it looks like a challenging schedule...and it probably is.  I rarely listen to the "strength of schedule" conversations that light up social media this time of year. Each year teams improve and decline. I think there's chunks of the year we need to take care of business and the week 5 bye is not desired.  I do think if we don't hit the bye week at 3-1, it's going to be a major uphill battle given the schedule in front of us. This season falls on three people, regardless of schedule strength: Canales, Bryce, Evero.  Canales: Finally can truly coach all aspects of the team and not focus with gameday prep for OC duties anymore. He drives the bus and needs to get these guys in position to win each week. There's no way vets come in and put it on the line every week to watch our QB sh!t the bed (See: SF game last year). Bryce: Despite everyone's obsession with thinking Bryce is a guaranteed extension, I think this year will truly be his "prove it" year. If he comes out the way he has the past three years, I really don't see how vets and coaches can continue to put him under center long-term. He might play out that fifth year as the starter, but I think next offseason his long-term replacement is found. I also think there's no excuses with the weapons and commitment we've made on offense to insulate him with every possible weapon.  Evero: Best personnel he's had since he's been here...no excuses. Figure out how to blitz effectively. Figure out how to use CBs whose strengths are press/man. Figure out how to utilize a talented front-7 to get the hell of the field. Outside of FS and maybe....maybe ILB, there are few weaknesses on this unit.

      Canales can never get his teams ready in the first week of the season so far. Hope that changes or Ben Johnson is going to take his azz to school.
