hp i agree with you! i dont know if we will go 9-7 but i am not in the boat of thinking we wil be 12-4. Every one thinks that all of a sudden we are a elite team because we went 12-4 last year beating up perrenial losers. THis year we will be playing teams thay have won consistently. that is the difference between this year and last year, also last year we were mostly injury free.

It's a good thing that we have DC that knows New England pretty well since Indy and NE usually meet in the playoffs every year.

This is an advantage that shouldn't be overlooked. The Colts faced most of the AFC powerhouses every year during his tenure, and his knowledge should help us when we face the tough AFC East teams.

With these crazy prediction threads you only have two choices between pessimistic and optimistic. It's impossible to be realistic as we have no information to make any accurate judgements on.

I'd be really curious to see what your predictions were for the 2008 cardinals. Or the 2008 panthers, I bet you were pessimistic back then too.

I don't understand the point of being a fan, (especially to the extent that you would join a message board) if you're going to predict doom and gloom for the division winner 4-5 months before the season starts. I think you like being a party pooper.

But you do bring a valid point that all of our losses came against top teams

Everything depends on how well Delhomme bounces back from that play off disaster. If he starts worrying too much about throwing INT's, we're in trouble. If he can put that last game behind him and play loose like he did in 03, the Panthers will be fine, because I believe the defense and running game will be solid again. In fact, there is no reason why the running game can't be even better, since we had two first time starters on that O-line last year (Otah and Kalil).

Yeah, he did a good job of pissing on the whole last season and trying to piss on the next one, too. Ha ha
this is the third thread that he has made to tell everyone that the panthers aren't going to do well next year.

anyone notice a trend?

I think that the defense will be top 10, and that our run game is going to be by far the best in the entire league. I wouldnt be surprised if both D-Will and Stewart have over 1000 yards, and put up 30 plus TD's again. If that happens, all Jake needs to do is manage the game, and make the occasional big play to Smitty when need be. I think that he is very very capable of doing that.

I say 11-5 or better....

      Brother, you don't end up 32nd in rushing defense accidentally. It takes work.

      Steelers fans will take over the Stadium and city   It will be unbearable  worse for me, on the west coast, resigned to the nfl network and you know it will be a steelers broadcast team.    It was ungodly bad with sheduer 2 weeks ago  Last game, tried listening  on panthers radio and  watching  on espn live last week but the delay between the 2 drove me nuts  so as bad as they were playing, found something else to do

      Post- Training Camp 53-Man Roster Projection

      I mean I don't have a personal axe to grind with any human on the Panthers roster.  I know AT shouldn't be dominating the slot. The fact he is....is because we have a horrific front office/management.   I can part with any player.   The goal is a winning team.   the root of the AT ranting, is really just looking out for BY (people like to call me BY hater though).  A QB who was basically screwed from day 1 when we got drafted here.  I went hard at Carolina then too for setting him up to fail. Because it was obvious from the jump the setup was failure by design.  Which was true.   I said Frank bad zero sense with BY.  Miles Sandes made double zero sense.  The players they got in FA made zero sense.     Either you build a BY O.....or you move on from BY.  I have said I am cool either way.  We are in no man's land and have been there since they day we drafted him.
