Why do I have a feeling that our first two games will be nasty...for us

[The Saltman]

hey its on espn ...chucky FTW!!

[SorthNarolina]

we've been taking it really hard on ourselves lately. This will be some good benchmarks for how we're progressing.

[DynastyRTR]

@ Baltimore is by far the toughest game

all afc teams? wow never seen that before.

From the article, surprised me too..

... This will be the sixth time in 16 Panthers preseasons -- but the first since 2006 -- that the entire schedule has been comprised of AFC opponents. The Panthers played nothing but AFC opponents in August from 1999 through 2001 ...

There is a good chance our offense gets raped in ALL these games...

[Swarly]

lol we'll just be playing backups. it'll be fun to let the new guys practice against teams with established defenses.

[pantherfan82]

its preseason it wont matter either way. like the above post said. it will be the backups so we will see what we got.

[Phoenaxe]

I'm actually really excited to see how our younger players step up in preseason!

[panthersphan]

Preseason, no games are "tough"

Especially the FIRST one lol

[Acewalker]

Sweet, if you guys have HBO make sure to watch Hard Knocks then because it's really awesome to get to see your team from another perspective (week 2 vs Jets)
