Seems odd to list the last 2 weeks while omitting the impact of the historic yardage from Dowdle.

Very good point. But, to win you still have to have big conversions on 3rd down. There are always parts of the game where your QB 1 is forced to make a play. It's just complimentary football. You're dead on with what Dowdle has done. But, it has helped out Bryce by putting him in less situations where he has to carry the team. We'll see what impact this all has... a lot of variables and a lot of football still to be played.

2023

  • 15-13 over Houston
  • 9-7 over Atlanta

2024

  • 23-22 over New Orleans
  • 20-17 over NYG
  • 36-30 over Arizona
  • 44-38 over Atlanta

2025

  • 27-24 over Miami
  • 30-27 over Dallas

He already has almost halfway as many GWDs as Cam (17) and Delhomme (22).

The fact that this will trigger some folks is sad tbh.

Last two GWD don't count because Dowdle went off for 200+ total yards in both games (never mind that vs. MIA Rico came off of the field with cramps during the GWD)... other GWD apparently don't count because they weren't "playing meaningful football."

Gonna have to tell folks the same thing they try to tell everybody else: NO EXCUSES 👀

I hope next week is not a negative stat for a BY led team. We cannot lose to the winless Jets. We’re already the laughing stock of the NFL. Imaging what it’d be like if we lost to a winless team? 

The Jets are precisely the kind of team the Panthers lose to, no matter how well they're playing lol.  Hopefully canales comes out firing and puts them down early.

Defense needs to just shut down the Jets offense. We need a road win and this should be a team to get one against.

If this team ends up over .500, this board is going to be crazy with playoff talk haha

This is the window of the schedule the wins were always coming when people were making those 5-6ish win predictions.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
