High stakes

[PanthersATL]

I do approve of the NFL's recent schedule makers' choice of piling a bunch of division games at the end of the season (not just for us, but all the other divisions too).

When the matchups are competitive, it makes for a fun month to cheer

There is also a thing where, with the long ass season, playing a team at a certain point makes a big difference. They are rarely the same team 3 months later. I like the division games being bunched together for fairness. Everyone is basically playing the same team. Yours and theirs.
 

Course there are flaws in that too. Maybe there should be two bunches months apart to factor that in. Injuries, development, etc.

if I had my choice you'd play your first game against a division opponent in the first 6ish weeks and the last 6ish would be the second game.

I think Tampa will continue to struggle without Evans.  That’s our really hope.  We have to handle business though regardless.

Godwin is due to return in the near future, so that passing attack will get a big boost once he shakes the rust off.
