Here's a stat...

My thing is this. We just faced the best QB we will face all year and he did not have an easy day. Sure, no Davis. But we have been without Davis for years. We will be fine on that front (not as good, but still OK).

I honestly like our chances at making the wildcard. It would take a miracle for us to be a lock for the playoffs, given the youth and the adversity with the injuries, but it isn't THAT far fetched (although, it is a bit out there).

I like our chances at 10 wins. It is going to take a lot, but I got a feeling that WHEN we get this win next week, it is going to light a fire under the team. Call me crazy, a homer, or an idiot, but I just feel like it is possible. Cam has me believing!

12% of all teams that start out 0-2 make the playoffs.

These panthers have an easier schedule then I originally thought, and I think if they really want it, it can happen

Go panthers!!!!!!!!!!!

you can find stats that say anything.

percentage is higher for those that start 1-2. Doesn't matter how you get to 1-2.

Drew Brees is just as good as Aaron Rodgers.

    • 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.
