True, he could implode. They just seem like a very complete team. They already dog walked the 49ers and I'd trust Lamar (or any of the AFC QBs left) over Purdy. I thought Purdy was pretty bad today and the 49ers always seem to get their QB exposed (or hurt) in the NFCCG or SB recently. 

They're gonna have to implode because damn, they look DOMINANT in the trenches and if you can control the LOS on both sides of the ball you're HARD to beat. That's what separates the blue blood teams in college. They rarely ever lose in the regular season because they dominate the LOS every week.

Why do y'all care who wins these games? Just let it go and just watch for the love of the game. Trust me, it makes for a lot more entertainment and a lot less stress. This season has made me remember the joys of just being a general NFL fan. Yeah, you don't get the super high highs of being a fan of a team doing well but we're Panthers fans here. Do we actually have any realistic hope of that in the near future? Just watch for the entertaining the game and let the results go. 

I don't really care that much but it makes it more entertaining when you have a team to root for. I usually root for whichever team hasn't won a super bowl before or the team that has connections to the Panthers.

So of the remaining teams, I'm pulling for the Bills, Lion, or 49ers. 

Seeing the Chiefs win again would be boring that may be the only outcome Id not like. 

If the Cheifs win again they're basically the new Patriots

That being said, I think they over achieved for it being Jordan Love's first season starting. If they had actually won this game (easily could have imo if their kicker doesnt miss that field goal and they get a field goal on that last drive to win) and gotten the NFC CG, that wouldve have been bonkers for such a young team and a QB starting his first year. 

 

Yeah, I can see that. But ending on that note is rough. Seeing your QB go out with such a brutal decision is rough.

Looking to tomorrow...this is IT for the Bills, right? If I'm a part of that org I'm thinking we HAVE to win this game or it's curtains for us with the current regime. They looked dead and buried halfway through the season and resurrected themselves, which is great, but this is like the entire franchise is on the line tomorrow. In my mind, at least..

Id feel kind of indifferent I guess. I don't have any real connection to either team other than the Bucs being in our division. 

But the Bucs have already won 2 super bowls. Them winning another one would be surprising but I wouldn't personally be mad. Baker was incredibly bad when he was playing in a Panthers uniform. Whether you want to blame him or the coaches/gm or what have you, thats up to debate I guess.

I'm cheering hard for the Bills and the Lions.  I almost got as hyped to see that Josh Allen long TD run as I did when I saw Cam do something similar to the Buccaneers in his rookie season I think.

After watching the Ravens on TV and the 49ers in person tlday, the 49ers better hope like hell the Ravens forget how to play because otherwise the Ravens beat them by 30 

The 49ers still have to get past either the Lions or the Bucs.

The Ravens still have to get past either the Bills or the Chiefs.

The Super Bowl matchup is far from set.

      Fishy: 78 P; Svech: 67 P; Jarvy: 66 P; Fly: 65 P; Blakey: 49 P; Ghosty: 47 P: Hallsy: 44 P This team could end up with an 80P guy, 2 70P guys and 3 50P guys when it's all said and done.

      Baldinger on the 2026 LB Class

      By PleaseCutStewart · Posted

      As long as we have DB, odd man fronts are the way to go for us. We want to line DB up between the guard and tackle (4i-tech) because of how quick he is off the snap and his punch on the guard off the snap. If anyone is wondering why he pretty much has to be doubled (or combo blocked) just about every snap, its because he is lined up in that spot in our odd man front. If we change to an even front, it becomes a lot harder to have DB play the 4i-tech.  Not sure if I would say Evero likes smaller NTs - I wouldn't call Bobby Brown a small NT by any sense. I think we run a 1-tech NT, so they are usually getting double teamed (or combo blocked) by concept alone. I actually think Bobby Brown did a pretty good job of eating blocks and being positionally sound on most runs at him (not his fault we were rocking ass LBs last year + Wharton being god awful). The bigger problem came on the toss plays/outside runs where DB wasn't able to blow it up in the backfield (i.e., the Bills game). Lloyd should help with the run D and getting a rangy LB in the draft will definitely help. There are also some good 1-tech DTs (and 0-techs) that can be instant day 1 starters for us in the draft.
