lol..anything can happen..they have the tools to be a good team in a few years..but IDK about this

“I won’t make a prediction about how many games we’re going to win,” Smith wrote recently at smith34.com, “but I will say this: We will definitely make the playoffs this season.”

a lil shot at the panthers...since we did play them..but i cant say too much seeing as he put 100 on us

“Believe it or not we weren’t far off last year,” he wrote. “Almost every game we could have won, we were one play or one player short. Except for Tennessee on Thanksgiving, they just came out and beat us to sleep. They manhandled us, but nobody else did.”

If I was the Detroit FO, I'd say....

We will definitely make the playoffs? OK, here's your new contract. If we make the playoffs, you get paid double what you are now. If not, you get the league minimum, sign here :D

If he thinks they definitely get to the playoffs, then its a good deal. But, gee, I wonder what he would do.... :rolleyes:

They are in a weak division...NFC North..GB MInn, Chicago....they dont have the strongest schedule....I just dont know......Would be one of the biggest turnarounds i have ever seen. from winless to the playoffs.....that would be at least plus 10 in wins last year....Its possible but i dont think it will happen

I wouldn't say they're in a week division at all, though I know none of the teams had really great records or anything. With Cutler, I think Chicago is on the up and up.

I think Green Bay's defense will be much improved next year. And Minnesota, well, we all know that with good quarterback play they can be a very dangerous team.

A weak division would be like the NFC West. :P

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By jb2288 · Posted

      I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes.

      Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.

      Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
