The Panthers can make history on Sunday in 3 different defensive categories. 

First- Most points allowed in a season. Currently, the Panthers are 7th with 496 points allowed. For reference we only allowed 470 in 2019. The top 6 shakes out like this-

  • 1981 Colts-533
  • 2020 Lions-519
  • 2023 Commanders- 518
  • 2008 Lions-517
  • 2021 Jets-504
  • 1966 Giants- 501

Next, the Panthers have allowed the 12th most rushing yards in a season with one game left to go and will likely crack the Top 5-

  • 1978 Bills- 3,228
  • 1980 Saints-3,106
  • 1978 Colts-3,010
  • 1977 Chiefs-2,971
  • 1981 Patriots-2,950
  • 2022 Texans-2,894
  • 1979 Packers- 2,885
  • 1978 Seahawks-2,876
  • 1976 Chiefs-2,861
  • 1950 Colts- 2,857
  • 1973 Patriots-2,850
  • 2024 Panthers-2,830

Finally, it also looks like the Panthers could crack the Top 5 in Total Yards Allowed in a season. Right now, they have 6,340

  • 2012 Saints- 7,042
  • 1981 Colts- 6,793
  • 2021 Jets-6,765
  • 2015 Giants-6,725
  • 2020 Lions-6,716

I'll update this thread with the finals next week.

Fair enough, bottom 10 instead of 5 in history now.

Yeah we surely suck and our scheme is too passive to me. I want a DC who likes to blitz, create pressure and use more man press coverage. I think that scheme helps hide weaknesses instead of magnify them with our lack of pressure and bend until you break prevent zone.

    • lmao that's a good point; but at the same time I think and HOPE Canales learned from how he operated last year, only giving us one real look against the Bills that had people shouting 'Super Bowl'...only to come out flat.
    • I mean the whole defense was trash, he was at least trying. Besides if you put a all-pro among 10 PSers, that all-world will look human. It's very hard to judge very bad units and find the best players among them. Horn and Mjack played well too, there was 0 pass rush and -1777784 run defense. 
    • I was looking back and seen Evan Neal has made the switch to OG after awful years at OT.......I wanted him over Icky for his tricep alone..... I was 100% stroud too, I was super pissed about his record setting and playoff leading start......I had arich vastly over the midget BY too. But right now, BY is about the only one on the up&up. The Texans used lots of prime draft capital to help Stroud.  It's still not ready. But if you're honestly about past drafts, these GMs are not alone in making mistakes.  I still feel they should stayed put and allowed Carter to fall in their lap, but best I know Tepper had the worst rage about landing a QB for the past 5 years. The deal is with the correct coaching staff, Baker or darnold would still be here....Baker has signed 3 years for 100 million, which is a great NFL QB contract. Tepper hiring rhule and his shitty Baylor/temple staff was a massive setback given rhule was in control too. Then panic set in an d fitteerererererer had to make a winner and find a QB. Ugh.....I hope they are back...
