If Newton stays healthy all season, and they win this weekend...

...the Panthers will make the Playoffs this year.

There, I said it. :prrr:

Wanna bet?

[Guest]

football outsiders has our playoff odds at 1.1%

i feel like it's more likely than that. OP will probably be wrong though

[scarface]

Vikings

Titans

Lions

Colts

Succaneers

Foulkunts

Texans

Succaneers

'Aints

They can definitely win 7 out of the 9 (next 5 games I think they will win).

9-7 could possibly be good enough for the playoffs; doubt it though.

Make up your mind Oracle. 2 weeks ago, you made a thread about the Panthers being done...

Pick a side and stay on it. Nobody likes a wishy washy fan

Just to have a shot at a wildcard all the teams in the nfc south would have to win no more than 4 games each the rest of the year. Not to mention the rest of the nfc. So no.

If we win the rest of our games We are IN!!!!!

[Camdemonium]

Like I said before, 1 win makes everyone go full ratard.

[Guest Irv]

if we win the rest of the games on our schedule i will run on to the field butt ass naked in the playoffs with carolinahuddle.com written on my back.

The math on this is simple... As long as The Panthers worry about themselves and not anybody else they *can* make the playoffs. 11-5 gets us in for sure...

We can't worry about other teams. Just have to take care of bitness.

It's not highly likely that we win out, but the Cardinals did make the Workd Series... So stranger things have definitely happened.

with our defense, I'd be more than pleased with a 7-9 season, dare I say 8-8. Our first season after the 1-15 year, we went 7-9 and felt like we had come light years from the previous season. I'm getting that same sense this year.

If:

-we win out and,

-Atlanta loses just one additional game and,

-and the Saints lose 2 more games, including a divisional game, other than against us,

...we tie with the Saints and win the division with a better divisional record on the final game of the season. It would make for a hell of a finish and a huge last game of the season on the road.

Wild card won't happen. But the above would be interesting. If the above happens, then I would consider us a Superbowl lock considering the sickening amount of pressure Cam and this team would have to overcome to make the playoffs in that fashion.
