Slow week bored so "what if..."

Anyways this week is going so freaking slow its painful. Oh yeah its still freaking snowing. (I don't like the snow.) I keep seeing all the talking heads talk us down. I understand why. They were all on our jocks a few years back and we let them down. Now I for one can't wait til they all jump back on the bandwagon after this weekend. Which they probably won't. There will be some excuse. Thats another topic in its own. I thought it would be fun to entertain the idea if the talking heads would have been right this year.

I used to read comics alot and they sometimes had a "what if spin". Taking only the games that the panthers won by 4 or less and converting them into losses we'd be at 9-8. Still that puts us at 1 game over .500

Would there be any "coaching changes" for next season?

Would there be any changes in the front office?

What about player(s) contract extensions or resigings?

*On a side note. i'm very glad things worked out the way they have. I had forgotten that some of the games were so close.

What if there were only 16 games in a season?

Ouch, I love my panthers guys. Sorry if you feel it was the wrong time to post something like this. I knew it would be unpopular. But with nothing to talk about that hasen't already been covered I thought it would be fun. To stir the pot a bit. To get some conversation going about how wrong the "talking heads" are. Oh well guess the post was too negative.

Yeah i'll admit it was stupid to say we'd be 9-8. Had to many numbers going through my head it would have been 7-9. 2 games under .500.

    • I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.
    • overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.     
    • Im really curious to see how the defense is going to look once its playing with some leads.
