I hope this is ok mods. There are alot of games today that have implications on the Panthers. The Panthers can avoid quite the log jam for the those two wild card spots with a win tomorrow night.

Baltimore vs Chicago: we need Baltimore to win. Chicago is 5-4 and fighting for one of those 2 wild card spots. Go Ravens! (I hate Flacco so much)

Washington vs Philidelphia: ill be rooting for Washington. Washington is 3-6 and Philly is 5-5. It may take a 10-6 record to get into the playoffs this year. So the more teams with 6 losses after this week the better.

Detroit vs Pittsburgh: when its NFC vs AFC you always root for AFC. With Cutler and Rodgers out, Detroit looks to be the favorite to win the North. However, you never know how it will play out and Detroit may end up battling it out with us for a wild card spot. Go Pittsburgh!

Arizona vs Jacksonville: Dont look now but, with a win the Cardinals would be 6-4 and have the tie breaker over us. The Cardinals still have games against the Seahawks, Niners and Colts remaining. They play the Niners and Colts at home and IMO there a pretty good home team. I'm hoping Jacksonville is on some sort of high from last week if that's possible and beat a traveling Cardinals team. Go Jags! With a win today Jacksonville would put themselves in good position to play Oregon in the Rose Bowl.

Green Bay vs New York: got to kick GB while they are down. Green Bay, like Chicago is 5-4 and fighting for a wild card spot right now. Carolina has the tie breaker over the Giants. Giants already have 6 losses so they aren't as big of a threat. Go Giants!

Niners vs Saints: What do you guys think? If the Niners win and Panthers lose tomorrow, the Niners go back to the fifth spot. It's likely Arizona beats Jacksonville today and would be at 6-4. Carolina could be on the outside looking in on Tuesday morning with a loss. I think a split with the Saints is realistic. The Saints still travel to Seattle. I know alot of you guys want to win the division, I'm just thinkin in terms of having a back up plan (wild card). Anyway let me know what you think about this one! I expect alot of fug the saints replies.

If NO loses and we win, does that put us in 1st place due to our having beaten SF?

I believe NO would still technically be in first due to having a better conference record than us. Both there losses have come to AFC teams (Jets, Pats). We have 2 losses to NFC teams (Cards, Seahawks).

Yep.

But just to repeat, record against common opponents is the tiebreaker considered before conference record. If we win and Saints lose, that record would be tied at 2-2 apiece, with the Saints having a chance to go up by beating the Seahawks while we have a chance to go up by beating the Jets. We'd also have to beat the Dolphins, Saints would have to beat the Rams.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
