9-7


Sapper

Recommended Posts

Id say a typical season for your Carolina Panthers under John Fox. 9-7 probably means no playoffs either. 0-4 and 0-3 in conference, ouch. 9-7 would just mean an other starting point for this franchise next season.

Looking back the Giants and Saints games we were most competitive and could have won. We didnt show up for the Bucs. The Bengals gave us a chance to take a big lead early but never cashed in.

So being an absolute homer that puts us at 2-2 with 2 terrible losses and 2 wins we somehow managed to get. Take this example with a 9-7 record, with help we get in the playoffs.

In any case 9-7 John Fox retains keys to BoA. :cheers2:

Only one 0-4 team in the history of the nfl has gone to the playoffs and no 0-5 team ever went. It just isn't happening. While I think They played pretty well yesterday there are still a lot of areas, important areas that they still need to work on. There is that drive to play, but lack of experience that teaches you how to win. This is 7-9 team at best and 6-10 is probably how it'll end. Hard to even imagine 6 wins with not even having one now along side our upcoming schedule.

    • Yeah but at least that QB would be not short.  I keep going back to the fact other than Wilson no other short QB has ever won a Super Bowl. The success rate of short QBs is very, very low. Like count on one hand low.  Yeah some people would include Brees too but I don’t consider a 6 foot tall QB short, imo. 
    • I just rewatched all the highlights from after Bryce being benched. The Bryce hate needs to calm down a little bit. He showed a ton of potential the back half of the year. Same with Legette. They both made great plays when it mattered and a few mistakes when it counted. If we didn’t have a historically awful defense last year we could have ended even a bit better. Going into a brand new season we should be optimistic at least before game one. 2015 no one expected to go anywhere and the team steam rolled the league. I’m not saying that will happen, but hopefully we made strides to improve on the end of last year. Bryce put both Super Bowl teams in a battle last year and if we had a better D we could have taken them both. So at least look forward to the season and not past the season until it at least begins. 
    • I’m not mad at Moehrig.  He’s great at what he does.  And to be honest, a lot of my favorite safeties in our history were box-first type guys - Maxie, Minter, Mike Mitchell, Chris Harris…  they’re first and foremost objective was to put people on their backs and coverage was secondary.  There is a place for that.  There is a definite need for that.  Physical guys that set the tone.  So cool, we have that in Moerhig. But what we have lacked for the vast majority of our existence is a true free safety that cleans everything up on the back end.  Sometimes they come in the form of a JOAT, like Peppers.  I think he would be a fantastic compliment to Moehrig’s strengths and weaknesses.  If we don’t go after him, I certainly hope Ransom is given the chance to grow and develop in real-time with real game reps, because what he did in preseason was very encouraging to see.  I hope he can grow into that roaming center fielder with a little bit of an edge to him as an enforcer as well.  He has the tools.  In the meantime, adding Peppers would only help.
