The Bucs are so much better than their record, and down Godwin/Evans. Baker is absolutely balling out this year

Some of the plays he made on that last drive to tie up the game were ridiculous 

Probably the best of his career. He’s been really damn good this year

I’ve always been a Baker fan. Might not win a Super Bowl with him but he can be a good QB if he’s not placed in a circus (Cleveland/Carolina)

People made way too much of Baker not being a good QB. He was a good QB in Cleveland for a while and in difficult conditions. He was never NOT going to be a starting caliber NFL QB.

I am not surprised by how he is doing there because he has shown he can do this before.

Panthers fans only see our disaster and assume it's the player that is at fault.

Baker is playing well, but their team overall is very inconsistent.  Wins over Detroit and Washington, very bad home losses to Denver and Atlanta.  But they have had a rough schedule.  They are fortunate that five of their last six games are against teams with losing records.  But losing twice to Atlanta really hurts their chance at the division.

Panthers go 5-2

Falcons go 2-5 or 1-6

Falcons only have 2 wins against teams outside of the NFC South teams and one of them is the imploding Cowboys. With only 1 more game against the NFC South (Panthers), it's possible the Falcons collapse. Broncos, Chargers, Vikings, and Commanders are all likely losses for the Falcons. Raiders may be a revenge game for Ridder. Giants are a likely win for the Falcons.

Panthers would need to beat the Falcons and Bucs. I can see them beating a tanking Cowboys team. The Panthers would need to upset the Chiefs, Cardinals, or Eagles.

That would be insane if the Panthers and Falcons go into the final week of the season at 7-9. Playing for the division title? Andy Dalton would need to be starting with Thielen returning and Brooks showing up as the best from the rookie class for any hope of a division title.

Let's make this season a little bit exciting right now. Over the next 4 weeks, we're looking for a 4 game losing streak for the Falcons with 3 more straight losses and a Panthers win over the Bucs with an upset of the undefeated Chiefs or Eagles.

There is no real risk of the Panthers turning this around. What we should hope to see is the team be competitive in most of the remaining games and the further development of our younger players(Coker, Sanders, Chuba, XL, Wallace, Ikey, Horn, etc). These are guys that we need to become a core that can be built around.

And maybe some veterans like Wonnum show they can be a part of the future here.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By dep · Posted

      Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4

      The ickey ekwonu question...

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.

      Evero and the pass rush

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
