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.

    • I have no idea but I'll trust my own two eyes. He's still playing like one of the worst QB's in recent memory.
    • I don't play Madden anymore - but if they adjust ratings every week, they likely need to put his Awareness down to like a 5 out of 100 after that play and the other play where he couldn't decide whether or not to scramble or throw the ball and didn't really end up doing either one. 
    • Just finished a re-watch of the game, and I can see how they back into "Bryce was fine, actually." You just have to be incredibly charitable to Bryce. The grade basically comes down to how much blame you assign to him for these plays: 1. The goal-line 4th-and-1 where the ball was snapped early. 2. The XL sideline toe-drag failure. 3. The left sideline Renfrow drop. 4. The second left sideline Renfrow missed connection (ugh). 5. The ball going through Dowdle's hands and getting picked. 6. The JT Sanders wheel-route drop. 7. The 4th-and-1 end-zone shot to T-Mac. If you put the drops on the receivers and massage his grade a little due to some quick pressures...sure, you get a passable grade. If you don't, then it looks pretty bad. But the only undeniably, balls-stupid, completely-on-him mistakes I remember right now were the fumble, the pick on the bootleg, and a spray or two. I'll just say that I don't really understand why everyone gets so upset about these grades. We all know they're pretty subjective and should really only be taken seriously over a sample size big enough to even some of these things out. It obviously matters that the offense looked like crap. But that'll all show up in the grades if that remains the case. Maybe they could be better about putting in a range? Like, they could go as low as a 30 or as high as an 80, depending on how you score those things, but they had to settle on something, so here's a 70.
