Getting Above .500

[Seltzer]

Would be a major accomplishment for this franchise given how bad the last 4 years have been.  The Panthers truly have been a bottom-feeding franchise since the Delhomme meltdown on January 10th, 2009 against the Arizona Cardinals.  Their overall record has been 16-37.  21 Games under .500!  When you stop and look at it objectively, Cam Newton & Luke Kuechly have provided basically the only national sparks to what has truly been an utterly irrelevant era for the Carolina Panthers.

 

It has currently been 1725 days since then.  For some perspective on how long it's been, George W. Bush was on his 9th to last day in office.  The national average for a gallon of gas was $1.79 (it shortly would begin its upward and exponential increase).  Walter White was still trying to figure out how to get rid of Tuco.   Twitter had just entered the public lexicon after a year of staggering growth.  Cam Newton was preparing to transfer to Blinn College and off the national radar of college football.  Luke Kuechly had yet to graduate high school.

 

If the Panthers can win against the Cardinals and Rams to move their record (and I believe they should), the streak will hopefully end at 1735 days.  All I can say is its about dam* time

It is absolutely time for this to put a winning record on the board. That is pathetic.

They play in Minnesota next week not against St.Louis. Minnesota is a tough place to play at.

Let's get to .500 first this week....then take it from there.....don't want to overwhelm them with to much winning all in one dose.

Agree- I was mostly just doing this as an exercise to think back to what was going on in the world the last time the Panthers had a winning record and since we are playing the Cardinals this weekend.

My daughter was born on 25 March 2009, she has never known a Panther team with a winning record. Love for her to see it now that she will sit down with Daddy & watch some football...

My son also has never known such a thing....he relates it to unicorns and leprechauns. Just a silly dream.
