For those who knock our schedule

Panthers have more wins against teams with winning records than Denver and Kansas City COMBINED.

You play who you play....people only selectively use the "you haven't played anyone card".

Anyone heard that said about Denver? That they have just beat up on bad teams?

Well, everyone has said that about KC. It's not like people are saying it is Carolina's fault they haven't played a tough schedule. People are just reserving judgment about how good Carolina really is until they can beat a few good teams. It's a non knee-jerk reaction.

 

As far as Denver goes, they have Peyton Manning. I mean, Peyton Manning is enough on his own to get a pass for playing a weak schedule.

Pat's haven't exactly played a murderer's row either.

 

They beat the Saints in Foxboro.

 

The beat the Bills and Jets by a combined 5 points.

 

They beat Atl by a TD

 

Killed TB

 

Lost to the Bengals and Jets (second game)

 

Beat Miami by 10.

 

Their only "convincing wins came against the Bucs (1-8) and the Steelers (3-6).

 

They've lost 2 of their 3 road games and are about to add another loss on the road.

Did they watch the Rams (team we beat comfortably with their starting QB (a former #1 overall pick) against the Seahawks and Colts (without their starting QB)? If the Colts/Rams game in particular was a fight, the refs would have stopped it early to spare everyone the carnage. And, speaking of easy schedules, the AFC south? You gotta be kidding me.

    • Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.
    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
