Not only is Cutler hurt but there is now rumblings of the Bears moving on without him. As the Bucs can attest, nothing puts a franchise in a tailspin like talks of a QB change. The. Bears still have a rough schedule ahead and their horrid D wont carry them. The NFC north doesnt scare me, Cowboys will win the NFC while the rest of that division will be lucky to go 8-8. Over to the NFC west, its pretty much a given a WC spot will come out of the NFC west be it the 9ers or the Seahawks, one will win the division and the other wil get a wild card.

In our division, Falcons MIGHT get to 8-8 and the Bucs, well.. The Bucs. Packers are now the clear favorites for the NFC north, the Bears have the makings of a mid season meltdown. The Lions look pretty legit this season. With either the 9ers or Hawks all but certain to nab a WC spot, it looks as though its game on between us and the Lions for the final WC spot. This might be a year we can get in at 9-7. This is the Lions remaining schedule;

Cowboys

@Bears

@Steelers

Bucs

Packers

@Eagles

Ravens

Giants

@Vikings

You cant trust the Lions. They are major chokers, yes we can be chokers also but the Lions are just as bad. The Bengals just beat them in Detroit. I can see them losing in Pittsburgh, I could see a Ravens loss and even a Eagles upset wouldnt suprise me. Yes the Lions are a pretty good team but they cant be trusted.

I have looked a lot the packers and Lions both have much easier sched. Totally agree 10-6 and we could be sitting at home. I think the easier road is winning the division, we still control that and the saints still play the seahawks and the 9ers. The biggest thing we have to do is win the next two then split with NEw England and SF games then we can really start to hope.

although 5-1, they havent been really impressive. barely got past the Buccs and Falcons early. we match up very, very well against them.

Their D is scary and the O is playing lights out. Now if Graham is out, that changes things. I dont see how the Saints dont win the NFCS, although we win against the Bucs we will only be a game behind

Cincy will win that Division - no real shame in that loss. I don't think you can call the 2013 Lions chokers based on their past teams. If that was the case no one would ever take us for more than losers.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By ladypanther · Posted

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.

      He wasn't a JAG, he's been a starter every year of his career. Didn't turn into the superstar it seemed like he might his rookie year, but I think part of that has been being misused. Guy was/is a baller.
