If we can beat the Jets this weekend I really think we can go 5-5 and get to 9-8. Not sure if that’s enough for the playoffs but it would be a good step forward.

Slow down kimosabe, one game at a time.

Three weeks ago everyone was trying to burn this place down.

I love seeing my football team win two games in a row but I’m pretty jaded from the Tepper era so I’m just expecting it to all fall apart each week. Much safer. 
 

it’ll be exciting to see if Bryce can get the road monkey off his back and if the run game maintains it’s dominating pace aghast a team that isn’t poo at run D.

Preseason prediction was 6ish wins and this team really looks about like that.  The wins in that 6 were always called to be heavy in this stretch of the schedule. 

we might beat the Jets.  But it’s hard to imagine us doing much down the stretch outside of splitting with the Saints and a random other game

Well, before the season I said something like we could win anywhere from four to 11 games depending how things fell. I also said that seven games was a hard target if I must give one. Three weeks ago, I'd have said we wouldn't win four games, but I still think we're on target to win seven, so I certainly don't think nine is out of the realm of reality. Honestly, it's going to come down to Bryce's development, and the coaches' willingness to adapt in and out of game.

I think the team around the QB is better than we thought, it's up to the QB to improve and step up. Watching the all-22, he still missed touchdowns yesterday that would have sastified the CRA-LG crowd. Jimmy Horn should have had a 80 yard TD but Bryce missed it and it was just a 25 yarder instead. Legette was wide open in the endzone several times (not counting the one where the rusher was in Bryce's face, he couldn't make that throw)

The Jets are 23rd in run Defense, giving up 130 yards per game.

I think that win vs Dallas gave them a big boost of confidence. 

Thats a team that blew us out the past 2 seasons. Even when Bryce was playing okay late last season they still beat us pretty bad. 

Lets see if we slaughter the Jets or go back to playing sloppy uninspired football and go from there.

    • I'm OK with it. I think it's a little high considering his injury history and weight issues, but Coker seems to be a solid kid that has an understanding of what it takes to be a pro, and I believe that they believe that he did enough last season to show that he's ready to be a consistent force within the offense. Let's go, Coker, be all that everyone, including yourself, knows that you can be!
    • https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/onsi/xavier-legette-s-offseason-focus-could-help-unlock-panthers-wr I am going to be totally honest here: If I had to bet Xavier Legette would pass or fail--well, maybe catch on or drop (pun obviously intended), my money--err, pie in Zod's coming Huddle wagering system😅), I would pick the latter based upon what I've seen the last couple of years. But, like the writer, Preston Palm✋🏽, says, I'm going to be optimistic. Why not? It's the time of year for it, and I've told y'all before that through my fully grown skepticism, I haven't completely given up on X. I'm rooting for the kid.  X knows he can't have another year like the last, he said it himself: "My main thing is just to have a better year. I can't have another year like last year, I can't do that." He knows what's on the line. He's not dumb, however much some of you want to equate being country, or, more specifically, "talking country," with being dumb (which is kind of dumb in itself, but I digress...). X knows what's on the line, very clearly. As such, he has made some changes according to Palm ✋🏽, "Legette has looked noticeably thinner at minicamp this year and has reportedly dropped 7-9 pounds, which should alleviate some pressure on his hamstrings and not force as much impact on them every route he runs." You see, part of X's problem the last couple of seasons were his hamstrings, and now, he's focused on "bulletproofing" his hammies.  But of course X's journey hasn't just been about physical misfortunes and injuries, he knows that he hasn't displayed the best football, so he's embracing the pressure to perform, and likens it to what he did at USC (the southern version *sarcasm present*) during his time there. He exploded on the scene during his senior year, so hopefully he'll do something similar in year three of the NFL. Though we've recently seen some receivers breakout sooner, many receiver still don't break out until their third season due to the complexity of NFL route trees and such. I've never been an X hater, but I'm a realist. Still, I'm looking for X to make the jump. That would be the best for all involved.  
    • Tort is a fuging asshole. But, I love that he will keep starting Hart.
