Panthers still 35% to make the playoffs

just over 12% actually.

 

. The 12%+ is merely a historical average 

This.

 

Most people don't realize this, they just sound like parrots. If I had a dollar for every time the last two weeks I heard a Panther fan state the 12%, I'd have like 45 dollars.

 

I know being optimistic is frowned upon here, but I think we have better odds than 12%. There are so many variables not accounted for, we are usually a stronger team the second half of the season, which is actually when we play every division game. The Falcons, who have one of the worst O-lines I've seen for years (yes, worse than ours), the Saints, who aside from Drew Brees, don't look like they have it all together either, and the Bucs (enough said).

 

I truly think we sweep our division and make the playoffs. Haters welcome.

Talk of chance and stats is useless.  I mean how can you know what your chance was when you DONT make the playoffs? "Oh, well at least we finished the season with an 80% chance of making it" ... but we didn't

 

Wins and Losses.

 

edit: i'm being quite facetious here, i understand the value of statistical models. but as they say theres lies, damned lies and statistics.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
