I don't think playoffs are outside the realm of possibility

Not with this quarterback. Not with this schedule looking easier and easier.

Am I alone?

The depends. Is it possible? Sure anything is possible. Likely, realistic, or even worth bothering ourselves with as an 0-2 team with high potential but honestly poor execution? No. In that case you are probably alone.

I agree...

It sounds crazy, but honestly we do look like a pretty legit team. Our division honestly hasn't looked as solid as I thought'd be, and if we can stay healthy which is a BIG if, we might be able to play hard enough for a wildcard spot.

Absolutely not. I don't think the negative ones get it yet.

Really I just don't think they get it. They're not seeing it. I do and I 100% agree with you. We're in this race, THIS year.

You just saw the worst you will probably see us play all year versus the best. Just think about that before you say something negative. Really think about that.

Depends. We need start winning some games first. I think we can beat the Falcons and Saints, those teams are just made of a bunch fairies. The Buccaneers will be tough but doable. I don't fear anyone on our schedule.

lol i suggest you don't put in the Saints-Bears tape.

Its possible. If we cant somehow go 3-1 vs the jags, bears, saints and falcons over the next 4 weeks. And none of those teams have looked dominate in the back to back weeks so far. And the jags are just plain awful. A win vs the saints or falcons + the jags would go a loooonng way.

Edit: Saints have looked very good both weeks, but not unbeatable especially with the game we just played with GB.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
