Your 2025 NFC South Champs. Carolina Panthers


Recommended Posts

  • I don't care how we got it.  We did vastly better than I expected this year.  We ended the Bucs streak.  We have both a playoff notch and a division champ notch in our belts that will matter for the rest of our history (and how we got it won't). Though likely one and done, the fans get a home playoff game and we get a team that will next year feel they have playoff experience.  NFL Radio etc will no longer be using us as the standard when they refer to "the worst team in the league."
  • If Chris Myers mentioned the playoff implications one more time, I'd have exploded.  I was one of those watching for that reason, yet I was sooooo sick of him saying it after almost every play.
  • From day one, I've considered ATL our biggest rival but, man, we need to send them a fruit basket or something.  In ONE YEAR, they've given us THREE dramatic victories against them (including two thrilling overtime games, a shut out, and a game where we set a passing yards franchise record). They also beat the Bucs when needed and beat the Saints when needed.  They sure made themselves hard to hate in the last 365 days.  Pretty sure I'm up to the task, though.

    • Aho…come out and prove me wrong boy. 
    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
