While I enjoy the thought of being seen as more than a doormat or a poverty franchise… historically speaking we have not done well when the predictions favor us.  Maybe this time will be different?

For the love of god please don’t suck again…

Generally agree, but this is an outlier not a norm, a majority of the pundits still put us as the dregs of the NFL.  It feels more like 2003 or 2015 preseason (When we were viewed as a meh..might be alright, prlly will suck predictions) than it does 2004 or 2016  (where the media was scraping the zipper so erect thinking we were DEFINITELY playoff and possibly superbowl bound again).  That said, just generally speaking, Im getting a good vibe from this team, they seem to be coming together, the leadership it looking stronger and it seems like theres some direction, but all of that is worthless if we dont get on field results.

Hard to take his perspective seriously.

I don't know about voodoo and "must win" type of games..... Just if the Panthers lose week 1 against the jags, I feel the effect will be nuclear-level bad. I would immediately lose all hope and think this is 2-4 win team. I feel a huge part of the fan base would feel the same.

 

So this is about the most important week 1 in panther history. If they can not beat Trevor who's been the worst QB for years and pitiful jags after training care.......I swear that would erase the whole season type of feels.

This is the Buc's division to lose.  We come out on top only if the wheels come off if Tampa.  I agree we can be--and should be--better than the Saints and likely the Falcons.  A 9-8 season would be nice, but it isn't great.  It's mediocre and that something the Panthers haven't been in nearly a decade, but would be reason to celebrate.  Heck, the Steelers will likely fire Tomlin over a 9-8 season because they are tired of being mediocre.
