Cowherd Says We Go 7-9


Recommended Posts

Not sure why he was running down records around lunch time. He said Falcons will win the division, and our schedule is just too tough.

Hear the segment below

as much as poeple hate him, the man knows football. Was disappointed that he thinks we'll just be 'ok' albeit improved.

Cowherd knows football? Even Cowherd himself admits he isn't much of a sports expert....deems himself more of a people expert.

Cowherd also is a big market guy who can count on one hand the number of Panther game he has watched over the last 5 years.

Cowherd often can have a good pulse on fans and national view points...that's about it.

He bets on the game all the time, believe me; while he's a hack for MLB, etc. he knows College and NFL football. he does. He gets it big picture. Listen to him during the season this year. He gets it.

Cowherd is one of the most intelligent people on ESPN. I know that's like saying you have the fastest kid in the special olympics, but he gets it.

His tune sure has changed though. He's been all over Cam and the Panthers since about week 14. But I gotta admit, if our defense plays like it does last year, or Cam gets hurt....7-9 is a legitimate possibility.

Personally, I have them around 9-10 wins and a trip to the playoffs.

if our ST and D were in the neighborhood of being almost average.....we would have made the playoffs last year.

If Cam gets hurt early. We will be looking at 3 wins or so....

I start every season at 8-8....will move up or down once preseason starts and we know what we got

    • My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again. 
    • Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise
    • Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
