Ok, what's your record prediction now?

[Guest Bwood]

now that you saw the team in action, what's your record predication? Sticking with the same or changing it?

I say 10-6.

[Marguide]

Not changing. 9 or 10 wins.

[fieryprophet]

12-4. Bite me.

[beckersteen]

0-16 fml

hah. we seem like a 7-9 to 9-7 team. its one game though, but we got some rouch games up front. we will see.

[Seal (SmittyIsOurSavior)]

5-11 maybe. We're no better than that right now. We have a lot of things to fix on the O-Line and the defense.

[Gallagher]

The way the defense played, and the way we all know the offense can play? 11-5

[rico6]

9 wins like Marguide said. Defense is still not talented enough and *knocks on wood* is one injury away from being right back where it was last season.

Offense will get the ball rolling as the season progresses I'm sure, but Chud and his erratic NCAA football plays need to get under some kind of balance.

For christ sake, on 2nd and 8 I believe in one drive he had Cam toss a 30+ yard bomb. Why? Why was it necessary to do that?

[PhillyB]

8-8 to 10-6

this was just one of our losses

[Actionman0z]

4-12 to 6-10.

[megadeth078]

It didn't change. 8-8 or 9-7.

[DeeJay]

10-5-1

[Marguide]

When people think about records, it's always colored by what has happened in the past, and that is understandable. But we have seen time and time again that the NFL is unpredictable. A few examples...

The Eagles damn near get beat by the Browns.

The Jets looked like an offensive juggernaut after looking like ass in the preseason.

The Saints* get beat down by the Skins and their rookie QB at home.

We rush for 10 yards.

We could brush this off and get on a roll. The Saints* may continue to look ordinary. Maybe the Bucs are for real. No one knows until we get a bit deeper into the season what is going to happen, so there is no reason to change prognostications at this point.

[NanuqoftheNorth]

After today's experience, hopefully the team will take nothing for granted and play like they are underdogs with something to prove.

Because for the next three weeks that is what they are.

A quick rebound from today's reality check will result in the Panthers having a winning record this year at 10-6.

[JawnyBlaze]

Surprised I'm the first to say this.

15-1.
