The Panthers will win the NFC South

Division champs just don't repeat in the NFC South, so don't expect the New Orleans Saints** (with all of their troubles) to come out on top. This year, it will be the Carolina Panthers (as I told Steve Smith during hisvisit to the Dave Dameshek Football Program). Scoff all you want right now, but remember me when the Panthers knock off the Giants in Week 3 on NFL Network.

The Panthers are clearly starting to get some more love.

It kind of reminds me of the generic publicity in 2008.

It's not far-fetched. There are 11 projected starters on this year's team (not including Stewie or TD) who were on that 12-4 2008 team in some capacity (whether a backup, rookie, platoon, or starter). So when analysts speak of the Panthers as an up-and-coming team with a lot of inexperience or youth, it irks me. It irks me more when guys like Bill Barnwell on Grantland poke fun at the Panthers for spending all the millions they did last offseason keeping together "the core of a 2-14 team". Cam's inexperienced. So is Amini. So are the WRs outside of Smitty. But otherwise we've got most of the o-line, RBs and defense intact from 12-4. And now we have Cam instead of the Jake who suddenly and sadly got the yips. Not guaranteeing a division title by any means, but most of these guys know how to win because they've done it before.

I just like seeing the asterisks getting longer and longer.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
