Did we really go 12-4 last season?

So we'll sneak up on'em. And then we'll get from and any of 100 sports analysts "I had the Panthers as my dark horse, I just didn't tell anybody or write it down. But believe me, like I believed the teh Panthers." When will that start happening, mid October?

Naw I think it will be a repeat of last year when they picked everyone to beat us. Just add in them talking about Delhommes playoff game all season.

Part of the Reason I don't get the Media when it comes to the Panthers is the fact that North Carolina has 2 of the most popular Colleges in the USA in UNC and Duke, I know not all the people that are fans of them are NFL fans and what not but still there is proof that a huge and mega Die hard fan base can come out of the Carolina's and you would think that ESPN and everyone else may want to try and tap it, which they could if they gave it a little push but I guess not.

I feel that one of the main reasons is because the Panther franchise hasn't been around nearly as long as the majority of the other football teams. The media loves to babble on about teams like the Packers, Cowboys, Giants, Eagles, Patriots, and so on. You never really hear much about the Panthers, Jags, and Texans, ya know?

im begining to think it will always be like this. the exact same teams get hyped up every year, and they keep ending up flat on their face.

like the cowboys, HOW THE UCK ARE THEY FAVORED TO WIN THE NFC EAST?

They lost TO, didnt sign any free agents, and sure as hell didnt build through the draft.....wtf

Oh, yeah this is also the Saints year to win it all. Like last year, and the year before that.

We had our day a few years ago when we were predicted to win the SB. That day is gone and so are respect. Until we win a SB we will have the Media on our jock.

think of it this way...if the Shitsburgh Stealers went 1-15, I guarandamntee you they'd still be in the top 10 the next season. Whenever you look at the rankings, you have to delete all the "NFL HardOn" teams first...you know...Stealers, Cowgirls, Patties...you know the list.

Here's what happened... everyone ignored us like they always do until the playoffs and then they saw us lose miserably - so they're thinking our playoff appearance was a fluke and Jake is washed up.

Personally, I like flying under the radar - nothing kills a team like being told how good they are. The Panthers should take all this bulletin board material and use it as motivation...

Isn't this good, now we can fly under the radar. Just watched last years first game at San Diego and there wasn't an easy schedule in the begining of last year either.

By the way isn't this the first time under Fox that we have been predicted to do really bad after a winning season?

A little thanks to the Swede. I believe you're right...

I think we need to start fast this year to win the division. With our current schedule starting slow like we did last year will kill us.

How did we "start slow" this past year? We were 2-1 through 3 games, and 4-2 through 6 games.

Wow, this board is just overflowing with confidence :D

^^^the other teams forums are overflowing with overconfidence either because their team is an ESPN darling (ATL) or because the forum is full of homers (also ATL) ... At this early point in the season, I'd rather be more cautious now over eating crow later... it is way too early to have a whole lot of confidence, no matter which team you live close to.. with that said, I have only seen positive things with the Panthers.

Let's just face it... ATL folks are going to be eating crow no matter what they say.

    • NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing. 
    • The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
    • Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
