after tonight

[Grammer]

what record do you see us having at the end of the year?

i say 6-10 or 5-11. newton shows promise, but has some down games and the defense has some issues

[Mr ocho nueve]

It's hard to set a expectation. We have the offensive firepower to make the playoffs, but our defense is going to make or break us.

[Kevin Greene]

Be interesting to see what we might add to the roster this week before any predicitions.

[UNCrules2187]

9-7. Yep, I'm going all-in on Cam's back!

[Double34Trouble28]

I'm sticking with 6-10. Major improvements on D will be needed for anything better than that. We are going to have to live off of takeaways and we only had one of those today.

[DeeJay]

11-5 Cam will win us 7 straight and we go 4-2 in the division.

[Cavscout]

3-13 or 4-12

Can't stop the run

Can't stop the pass

Being all elated yesterday was ok - we'd just seen our first overall pick break (break is not a good word - annihilate is better) the record for yardage by a rookie QB in his debut and tie the record for yardage by a QB in a single game for his first year. Elation is expected.

Now it's time to come back to reality: we are still a flawed team, just a flawed team with a much better option at QB than we probably thought we actually had after the preseason. I genuinely hope I'm proven wrong but, given the flaws with this team still (which are to be expected - you can't entirely repair the train wreck that was the Panters in one shortened offseason), I still feel like we are a 4 or 5 win team this year. I'll temper that by saying that our losses this year will be lightyears more fun to watch than the losses last year but still...they're probably going to pile up.

Now...if they could just set about proving me wrong...

I can't take stock in anything a man with a Jimmy Clausen avatar says.

[rico6]

Cam's my man!

I'm going above and beyond and saying 7 wins is very possible.

After what I saw last night, I still say the Panthers should have easily won last night. Cam was right. The team got too complacent. The game was the Panthers to win. Going forward, I hope the team realize that they can't take any team for granted and it's safe not to let up until the end up the game or a unreachable score.

[DC Amp]

I'll stick to my original prediction of 4-12 because of the defense.
