Panthers schedule next year looks mighty tasty


Deebo

Recommended Posts

Home games

St louis rams

New england

Seattle

Jets

And a team from the NFC East

Away games

Arizona

San fran 49ers

Buffalo bills

Miami dolphins

A team from the NFC North

+ Division games

From this schedule I see the panthers going 11-5 next season making the playoffs.

Thoughts guys.

teams jump up and down in quality year to year. the jets are terrible but if they find a way to plug a legit starting quarterback into that system they could make the playoffs. other great teams are one injury or trade or bad draft or retirement away from being abysmal.

Division games are going to be a toss up next year. Falcons arent going anywhere, the Saints will be much more stable, and the Bucs will be more well rounded.

We took care of the QB arms race in the NFCS, but we need some serious talent in other areas to compete.

I wouldn't be so sure about Tampa. They still have Josh Freeman and hes REALLY inconsistent.

If we get the Bears at Soioder field again, I will flip. What determines what NFC north team we get?

ratings.

just kidding.

with the NFCE and NFCN this year, it all depends on who finishes where we finish in the division.

if we finish 4th then we'd probably be facing the eagles and detroit.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
