So... Panthers control their own destiny.... right?

[Zod]

Being only 1 game back to the Saints and playing them twice this season still.... Don't the Panthers control their own destiny at this point?

 

 

When was the last time we could say that half way through a season?

[L-TownCat]

Yesterday?

I'm just waiting for the patented Rob Ryan late season defensive collapse, so we can wave at New Orleans while they fly past us on the way down.

NYJ showed that good D puts NO on the ropes.. we're coming for you Taints!

Most definitely. These are exciting times for the panthers. It's been a long time since we could be excited about controlling our on destiny about getting to the playoffs. We should send the Jets a thank you card before we stomp a mudhole in them in december. I believe this team is for real. They are playing with attitude and playing as a team. Even when Cam had a subpar game, the rest of the team stepped up. The notice is out.....The NFL should be aware that the Panthers are out there and they are not backing down

I just hope that good D doesn't put us on the ropes as well.  The Jets game is one of the few most are counting on as a win in the second half but they are looking like a tough out right now.

Almost every team controls their own destiny.  That is such an overused phrase.  If Atlanta wins out they will make the playoffs, so I guess they control their own destiny too.

depends on if we play them on an odd week or not. 

 

they haven't put two halfway decent games in a row all year.

Technically the Panthers have always controlled their own destiny. If you win out, you make the playoffs.

[PntherPryd]

Can it be argued that the niner game is no longer a "must win" to continue controlling our destiny?

 

 

 

 

[CLTPanther]

At least the Jets game is a home game for us

They don't control their own destiny though because they must count on other teams losing in order to advance.

[CLTPanther]

What he said. We control our own destiny because we are 1 game back of NO and play them twice.

Saints are leaking, we are better than them and I am 100% sure of it. I think we will finish 5-1 in the division if not 6-0. We have some tough games left but I think we match up well with that team from the stink hole.
