Rriverrrrerrra says Panthers can win 10 games this season

Win, Lose, or Tie..I get the feeling that I"m not going to feel like this team is just completely out of every game by halftime..nothing was more demoralizing then that last year. 10 wins or 5 or whatever..it's going to be much more fun to watch.

OK. This is not as far fetched as one may think. And by "one", I mean the Media clowns. We were decimated by injuries, horrendous QB play, and a general feeling that it was a lost season - BEFORE the season started...(b/c JR knew about the impending lockout, and refused to get any quality FA's).

I have a feeling that 10 wins may be a little high, but I expect to be much improved. Playoffs is not out of the question, but we are in the toughest division in FB.

interesting point. morale of the team was shot before the season began. they had just lot a ton of leadership in a short amount of time and were feeling incredibly uncertain about the future because of the lockout and then there was the issue of having a lame duck coach and wondering what the new coaching staff was going to look like and what their role would be.

they were distracted and horribly unfocused and they just went in feeling overwhelmed. injuries o players didn't help things either. nothing that happened from the first game on did anything to make them feel good about what was going on.

they went in essentially certain that the season was lost. i doubt many people vocalized it on the team publicly, but you have to know that they felt it.

attitude doesn't win or lose games, but it helps accomplish both.

I think this is a good way to pick out the milquetoast conservative Foxball fans. If the coach being confident enough to make an optimistic prediction for the team is scary and uncomfortable to you, you probably think a punt is a good play, too. You probably also secretly fantasize about more virile men stealing your wife.

I think they could be a .500 team but I also think we're in the best division in football. Our division games are loaded.

Yup, if we were in the NFC west I would give us a real good chance of making the playoffs. And if we do win 10 games in the NFC south we have to be a favorites...right?

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
