Right now, Detroit is the only 2 win team with a lower opponent win/loss% than us, but we haven't played Atlanta yet (and we have to play them twice), so it's possible that after next week, we'll be above Cincy and/or Buffalo.

Next week is our first game against the Falcons. I don't see us beating them.

Division and seeding races are likely too close for teams to rest their starters. If so, likely the only reasonable shot at a victory we have is against the Cardinals.

I was referring to the fact that once we include Atlanta next week our opponents W/L% will drastically increase, which would likely drop us below the two win teams in the race for #1 - in the unlikely event we somehow manage to beat someone (AZ is by far the likeliest chance) and end up with the same record.

And after looking closely at the W/L% of our competition through the end of the season (including their future opponents), it appears that winning one more game will almost certainly knock us out of contention for the #1 pick, unless all of the two win teams win another one. In fact, if we win one more game and all of the other bottom five teams lose out, we'd probably end up with the #4 pick, and if we somehow manage to win two more, we'd end up picking at #5. Ending the season with Atlanta (twice) and Pittsburgh really hurts our opponont W/L%, and Arizona doesn't make enough of a difference to keep us at #1 if we end up pulling a game or two out.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      If you're going to try and hold me saying he looks like crap in during his rookie year against me vs me trying to stay positive in the present and say that the hourly posting shitting on him is annoying and confusing because who the hell spends that much time on something they don't enjoy, I can't really help you. you're exaggerating and holding onto the past like a female. you just said in another thread that his excellent games vs the Rams has you feeling guilty for feeling any positivity. that is some true loser stuff right there, definitely not someone that is a fan of something. keep trying.

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      generally speaking, going by the original NFL international marketing rights announcement... we would expect to host a Germany home game once every four years.  Doesn't mean we would play internationally only then, just the guarantee home game situation things might have changed since then, if they figure out how to play at more stadiums during a season to expand the number of "home" teams available

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      Munich won't happen. It's a Lions home game in Munich, but we play the Lions at home at BOA Most likely to happen would be Madrid vs the Falcons (although KC has been pushing hard for this one). From a schedule perspective, it would be interesting to have an early November Madrid game (then the bye week), then close out the season at BOA for the 2nd game vs the falcons.  In other words, put the two division games in the 2nd half of the season Paris vs the Saints has long been rumored to be the Browns (but... never say never) We wouldn't play Munich, Melbourne, Mexico City, London, or Rio based on who those announced home teams happen to be
