On to the Texans....

The Texans are 10-3 and on a 5 game win streak.

Sadly, don't see us winning this game unless they completely overlook us.

Tampa may be our only win left, leaving us at 5-11, My preseason prediction.

Would you want to see the team rise to 8-8 and a mid round draft pick?

not sure how we can go 8-8, seeing we have lost 9 games...

I don't think we can beat the Texans... we can definitely beat Tampa Bay and I'd love to see us knock down the Saints... the only good thing about winning now is pride and getting Cam on a roll. Otherwise losing only helps our draft...

Run defense has been playing well the last two games.

Offense can score with anyone.

Texans do have a rookie QB...and he is due for a rookie game.

I think this is a much closer game than most think....and I do believe we can take this one down.

The Houston Texans, one of two teams the Panthers have never beaten. Lost to them in 2003 in Houston (the game with the infamous Smitty kick personal foul) enroute to playing the Super Bowl in that same stadium shortly thereafter, and then the 2007 home opener where we jumped out to the quick 14-0 lead before Schaub and Johnson blew it open. Again, Smitty was key in this game with his signature play of breaking about 9 tackles to take one to the house.

We are due for a win against this team.

The Bucs may be a winnable game.

New Orleans may be a winnable game too, only if the Saints have nothing to play for and are resting starters, odds are they will have wrapped division and home field.

The Texas are too good of a team and they have seen how to collapse the Panthers offense on tape and the the Panthers defense, not big thinkers out there.

Frankly after last week, in which they truly had a chance to win against a very good team and collapsed yet again, it will be interesting to see if they are still trying.

I doubt anyone cares about the Panthers now except the people on this board.

I don't know what I am the most sick about: hearing about Tim freaking The Golden Calf of Bristol or the Panthers losing close games. Both, probably.

Hope to win every game possible, no losing for better draft picks plzthx

"His conclusions:

--Teams that cost themselves draft position by winning "meaningless" games performed substantially better across the board over the next three seasons.

--Teams winning at the end of a losing season eventually won more games, made the playoffs a much higher percentage of the time, and advanced to conference championship games a much higher percentage of the time in subsequent seasons.

--The draft position "sliders" (i.e., teams that slid down the draft chart by winning more late games) won 16.3 percent more of their games and made the playoffs twice as often over their subsequent three seasons, a substantial increase in a league designed for parity."

    • This season only ends one way... We win this Sunday. Bryce is decent. We take back 1st place...   Only to then get our brakes blown off in the last two weeks.
    • Here's one of the most maddening things, that will be shown in full light over the next three weeks. The same people around here that called Darnold a bum and Mayfield a washed up over draft are also the ones saying Bryce is a catastrophe. Yeah, and I've been one who said Bryce wasn't big enough, brave enough or capable enough. I said back in the day that Darnold had a lot of fight in him and got shouted down. And on Mayfield, heck I didn't know, I just knew we had a very, very bad team that was run terribly. But I saw both of those guys go out there and resurrect their careers and be play-off bound since shaking the Carolina clay dust off their cleats. And we sat there and cat called their cars as they pulled out of the parking lot, laughing at what nobodies they were. Over the next three weeks, those two guys may just serve us sh!t sandwiches and then settle down to their just desserts. And then we'll probably let Bryce go off into the realm of other teams. And when that happens, will we see him coming back, better than before and we're left to re-sit this cycle all over again? Same naysayers, same results, same revolving carousel of ponies and pundits?  Will we end up looking like the Temu version of the San Diego Chargers back in the day watching Drew Brees come to fruition in the previously moribund Superdome while we whiff on a Manning pick just to be jilted for Phillip "Always a Bridesmaid" Rivers?
