Panthers schedule actually 17th hardest in 2011

it was #1 based off last year's records. but with the parity in the NFL, it's kind of pointless to ever base anything on a previous year. teams that were good in 2010 sucked this year (bucs twice, colts, bears, etc)

at least we get to play the AFC West next year which is perennially terrible

uhh... that says 14th before they adjust it

either way its right about average

Yeah, I should have noted that. I like the idea of removing your own influence though, and just gravitated to that chart.

Saints have the easiest schedule. Maybe they will come down to earth a little next year. :)

this is a prime example of why you can't base strength of schedule on anything from the previous year. the saints finished second in our division in 2010 which means they had to play the second place team from the NFC West and NFC East. The rams were good in 2010 and sucked this year. where as, the bucs had to play the last place teams of those divisions including the 49ers! haha

You just never know what's going to happen until the games start rolling

i know parity, too early to tell, lot of things can change blah blah blah... but honestly next years schedule looks pretty favorable to me. i think it'll end up being in the bottom half of SoS once everything is said and done.

no reason why we can't manage 9-10 wins so long as we have a good draft/offseason and shore up some of the holes on D

Well, playing TB and Carolina twice a year doesn't help....and yes. I know we lost to TB, and STL...lol.

      His PPG actually did go up a little in Colorado. We will see. I still sort of believe we saw pretty close to the peak of his abilities last year. Not wishing him ill or trashing him in any way. Just tend to believe we did sell high and correctly so.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      Well, other teams also had an offseason. I honestly agree with him. Right now I have way more faith in Coker ascending then I do XL. I think it's the TE/WR group dragging us down. Plus he does mention that the list was made with WR's very much valued more than RB's and TE's(I understand the thought process). In that context, we have a very aging AT, two "wait and see" second year players(one leaning bust) and a rookie.  I really think this is a very fair rating, on paper and in the offseason. Quite frankly, aside from the aforementioned and aging AT, this is a bunch of guys still trying to prove themselves.  Then when you go to TE, it's easily a bottom 3-4 unit on paper. That is probably being extremely generous.  RB is where we make our hay. Probably a top 5-10 unit. But....he mentions early in the article that he doesn't value the RB units as much.  So, really, it's the weighting of the skill positions that is what really fugs us.
