It's Not Going to Be Easy for Carolina...

Not to long ago, Carolina was sitting atop the NFL and made sure the NFL knew they were there. On the way to their 15-1 season and Super Bowl appearance, Carolina was cocky. They show boated. And they had the after game selfies.  As much fun as it was for them and the fan base, the rest of the NFL and the teams they left in their wake were left humilated.  Teams dont just shrug that off.  Players dont just shrug that off.  Carolina decimated the NFC South, especially that goose egg they gave them 38-0, and it is expected that given the opportunity, they will repay the favor over and over again.  It is carolinas turn to play punching bag in the NFC South.  Gotta suck it up and get better.  They say payback is a *****.  It is what it is.

3 stats that prove these 2015 Panthers might be one of the best teams of  all time | For The Win

Nobody in the division gives a poo about showboating in 2015. Most of those players are gone. The Saints Falcons and Bucs are all new look. Besides the entire league and now social media is all about boasting and rubbing other teams players and fans noses in it. Welcome to 2023.

How many players and coaches from 2015 are left in the nfl? Practically none. 

No players to be mad and none at which to be mad.

Just don't make threads at all.

for one, Cam Jordan from the saints which Carolina saw plenty of last night.

The average NFL player was either a senior in high school or a college freshman in 2015.  The average age of a pro is like 26, and young NFL fans loved Cam.  They probably liked that Panthers team and had fun watching them. 

They also weren't old enough to have become bitter losers pissing on the internet about how the Panthers "don't play the game the right way" and sitting on their couches yelling for the ref to throw the flag because Cam dabbed.  That and sports media outlets pandering to people like that is where most of the controversy came from that year.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
