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.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      I'll say 6. I don't know that we learned a whole lot about this team during preseason that we didn't already know. We didn't play the starters enough to really get a feel for what to expect. We had one good drive against the Browns, one 3-and-out and two 3-and-outs against the Texans. That's an extremely small sample size across 3 games regardless of performance. My camp/preseason takeaways: Jalen Coker might be the best WR on this team and is certainly no worse than #2. Nic Scourton is going to be a good player for us. Possibly very good. Bobby Brown was our best free agent addition and will do more to help the defense than anyone. Jack Plummer isn't an NFL QB. Not even a practice squad guy. Having anyone other than Canales and Evero call plays was a really stupid and pointless idea. Our depth is largely non-existent, especially on defense. The three areas we actually DO have depth are on the OL, in the WR corp. and at RB. I can't fathom why Dan Morgan didn't do more to upgrade ILB during the offseason. We better hope Lathan Ransom steps up at FS because if he doesn't we have a massive hole there. For all the hype surrounding Sanders and Evans, Tommy Tremble is still the best TE on the roster. I'm only slightly less enthusiastic going into the regular season than I was a month ago. I think our starters on offense are solid and we should be pretty good there unless Bryce totally regresses. On defense, we're probably bottom 3rd in the league if 100% healthy and significantly worse than that if injuries become an issue. We badly need at least two of our rookies to become high-level players early (ideally one of the pass rushers + Ransom) and at least 2 of our free agent additions (ideally Moehrig + Bobby Brown) to be significant upgrades over last year. Call me pessimistically optimistic 😆
