Week 12 Power Rankings

Well that was quick:

6. Carolina Panthers (7-3)

Found via Team Stream by Bleacher Report.

You can question how the Panthers' Week 11 win over the New England Patriots ended—and many will—but do not question whether or not this team is for real. Their play the last two weeks proves that they are a contender.

The Panthers won the game after intercepting Tom Brady in the endzone as time expired, but a flag thrown for defensive pass interference was picked up and waived off. No flag, no foul, ball game. The internet and sports shows will be ablaze with debates over the merits of the call, but attention should be paid to how well the Panthers played, too.

This is a team that's taken down the San Francisco 49ers and Patriots in back-to-back weeks. That's astounding consider 10 weeks ago many were ready to call Cam Newton a bust. Newton is not a bust, but an MVP candidate, and the Panthers are very much alive in the NFC.

#5 makes the most sense, looking at records.

 

Power rankings are not standings, if they were we wouldn't need power rankings (well we don't need power rankings anyway but you know what I mean).

 

The Chiefs have a better record than we do but we have been playing better right now, and that's what the power rankings are supposed to measure.

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
