Yeah we’re going to have to sweep Saints for sure in order to get to 7 wins 

Must wins are Jets, Saints x2 then we’ll have to surprise someone like Dallas, Tampa at home maybe? Maybe we go win in Atlanta again but I doubt it 

The Jets are also probably looking at the game against us as their one real shot at not going 0-17 so there’s that

Oh yeah, if the Jets lose again this week, we are toast.  They will be licking their chops.  Atlanta in their house?  Nah man, they rough us up down there even when we are good.  Besides, they will have a HUGE chip on their shoulder from their beat down at BOA.  I say the closest thing to a sure win the rest of the season will be the Saints in Charlotte.  Outside of that, have a seat on the struggle bus, it's going to be a long season.

Have you watched the jets play this year?

they don’t have anything to lick. 

Something has to give, either we notch road win #2 in the Bryce young era or they get a home victory versus a horrible road team.  If this game were in Charlotte, I'd give us the edge.  Just like if the game yesterday was in Florida, there's no way we come back.

Before the game started, my wife and I were discussing the team and if anything was going to happen for them. And my take is that this was going to be one of those games where you're going to learn where each of the teams are headed. The Dolphins have been in a downward spiral, we've been trying to break out of the cellar we've been living in.

A Dolphin win on the road might pull their team out of the dive and save their coach's job. It could bring them back to some sort of upward or at least leveling off trajectory. A Dolphin win would probably also completely crush the Panthers hopes for any growth this season and put Canales and crew on notice that it was time to polish up the resume`.

A Panthers win would buy Canales more time and would give the players, owners and fanbase something to buy into, one more step up the stairs leading out of the darkness and maybe, just maybe back into a competitive light. A Panthers win would probably mean that one or more heads were probably going to roll sooner rather than later in Miami's coaching staff. 

That first quarter... man, that first quarter... it said every damned thing we've been saying here for the last three seasons. There was no longer any denying it. And then we found ourselves down 17-zip.

And then, well, THAT happened.

Canales coached that team into a comeback, the second largest in Panthers history, on a day when there was every danged reason to pack it in and call it a day. He'll survive this week. I'm not so sure Miami isn't having a called to the carpet moment this morning.

We aren't out of cellar yet. But it's looking better. Holding serve on the home field gets you a lot in the NFL. 

Let's enjoy the win. They've been rare.

Our schedule is fugin brutal after the next two weeks. It would be so funny to get above 500 so the radio guys can go crazy with playoff talk before reality sets in

Even though this week's game is at home, I don't think we beat the Cowboys unless the defense can keep Dak rattled. If Dak gets dialed in, this thing could get ugly.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
