Probability of the Panthers winning at least 4 games this season...

I'm giving Rivera one more game to get his act together. If he can't fire up his team to play against the Cowboys, I'm hoping (yes I said it, all for the good of the franchise) we don't win another game this year. That way, Richardson will pretty much have to fire Rivera and Hurney for that matter. I don't want to finish 6-10 or 7-9, giving Rivera and Hurney another year to mess things up.

In the words of Owen Hart: "Enough is enough, and it's time for a change!"

Depends.

Let's see how we come out of the bye. If the team looks flat, hasn't adjusted offensive playcalling, etc. then we would probably be lucky to win 4 games. At some point, and it may be very soon if it hasn't already happened, the players will stop believing in the staff, and then we're down the drain.

If the team comes out sharper, and Chud develops a game plan with more interest toward winning and less toward showing the world what a genius he is, then we could easily win more than 4.

We'll see. Color me skeptical.

    • Me and you clearly have different definitions of production. If you remove the 2023 season where Thielen had just over 1k yards he is 43rd on our all time receivers list just ahead of Jonathan Mingo. And before you ask why would we remove that season? Well a couple reasons. For one thing we won a whopping 2 games. And for the biggest. Thielen was 14th in targets in 2023. We absolutely force fed him the ball all season and finished with the 32nd passing offense. For comparison sake 33 year old Jerricho Cotchery eclipsed over 1k total yards in just 2 more games and with 67 less targets than Thielen did in that 2023 season. He has above average hands. That's it. We overpaid him because we were desperate and overvalued him. That's the reality no matter how many times you or anyone else wants to quote me and get defensive about it.
    • He's played great and it was a win-win (rare free agent) for both parties.  One of the points is he hasn't made enough difference to "waste" 35 million on. Another point is by the time Panthers are hitting their prime, he would have taken snaps away from young WRs/TEs/RBs. "Thus" in the long term, hurting the teams new future "window."  But I dare think of the monkey poo of a offense the Panthers had without him the past 2 years. Lack of talent leads to many problems, including paying a 35 year old to be somewhat respectable. Hes one of few that cared enough and made a effort. Plus you know he's done great stuff in many other ways for the team, community juggernaut, leadership, etc.  Judgement is for AT and his 3 year panther career!!
    • But it has gotten a little wacky. RBs-https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/contracts/_/position/rb     A couple months ago iggles made Bark the highest guaranteed RB, jeanty was until then. That's what matters the guarantee. A rookie never played a down was the leader, until iggles howie made things right.  If a safety gets drafted in the top 8 or so, he would have the highest money too or very close to it.    Add in TEs and C too.    Even with the fixed %, the numbers are getting too much for a player that's not proven themselves.     Plus anytime a QB is drafted it screws up the contracts for players around and if next year a punter gets drafted at the same 90th spot, they want the same contract with the 5.7% increase. Teams would be laughing.    Its just reached this point. Another 10 years and I bet the vets will be crying.
