The Giants are ranked below us on this list and won 3 games last year.

From the actual source.

They are ranked behind us because of the QB, Coaching and FO rankings. They list our roster as worse. 

Which, if you give me a composite score on the same scale, I probably would have them below us, as well. Their coach and probably FO will be gone before ours will. Their QB situation is potentially worse(a lot hinges on Dart).

I will say if Ownership was taken into account, we might be squarely in last. Tepper is unquestionably 32nd.

At this point they actually have to prove they are not a bottom 5 team before anyone not selling clicks or tuning in to watch for fun to believe. 

Have they improved? Sure. Are they good? It does not appear that way at this point. Lots of best case scenarios would have to happen for that to be true and given our history I think I have better odds on a $2 loto ticket winning a jackpot.  

I have for too long lacked giving good posting beers, fire, etc. 

Good post, its beyond prove it time and until then 30s is where they belong.

I would take the giants roster over Panthers. Lawrence, 3 OLB/DEs, Thomas, and nabers. Lawrence is better than dbrown and Thomas is better than icky. Panthers don't have one edge that would start over those 3 not matter how people feel about burns. Id believe....I think I would take nabers over the whole WR group....Id need to think about, but I feel it is right or 50/50.....

Now after the top 10, Panthers may have claim. Im just not that big of a NFL fan like past time to make a good case. I'd just take giants on their top talent. 

 

I will say this, if BY carries this team to the playoffs, he alone would flip this.

I wouldn't quibble with the #32 ranking as far as how we function together at the present.  I'd be less agreeable if it is supposed to be a ranking of what the players will be after some development.

How bad is it when you beat Jerry Jones out of his "worst owner in NFL" status

Hard to argue that Tepper is worse than the guy who is literally the GM of the team he owns lol.  I'll give him benefit of the doubt for 31 at least.

Actually, there is no argument that Jerry isn't better. The Cowboys have only had 10 seasons under .500 in his 35 years of ownership. He has literally had as many .500 or better winning seasons as an owner as the Panthers do years of existence as a franchise.

Tepper literally took the reigns of a team that was in the midst of it's historical highpoint(2015-2017) and hasn't sniffed .500 since.

For all Jerry's faults, he builds winning teams. David Tepper consistently has built dumpster fire teams.

Technically it is a future/development ranking.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks seem to be Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team). Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
