Looking ahead to post season


Nate Dogg

Recommended Posts

I know I know it might be a little early for post season talk. But I needed some other opinions on the subject to help shape my outlook on the rest of the games this season.

 

New Orleans just lost their best CB for the season in what was already a questionable secondary. The way our offense played last night I can honestly see us picking them apart and sweeping the Saints. Even if we were to lose in the dome, a division championship is still possible with a split seeing as how they still have SEA on the schedule.

 

If we were to take the division, it's looking like our potential playoff matchups would be SF at home or NO for a 3rd time at home.

 

However, if we take a wild card spot our potential matchups are on the road at Dallas/Philly or at Detroit/Green Bay (barring Rodgers quick return) or possibly, but not likely, at Chicago.

 

 

I'm honestly leaning towards a WC being our best shot at a Super Bowl run...

 

What does everyone else think?

delete this thread now. if we lose next week you will be collectivly beaten down by every member of the huddle

 

don't be scared.  we started from the bottom, now we here. 

 

 

I'm done second guessing this team and our success.  Enjoy the moment. It's a great day to be a Panther!

all of those scenarios are scary as hell. actually i think san fran at home or dallas/philly on the road give us the best chance of a win.

 

knocking dallas out of the playoffs in front of the jerry jones bowl would instantly become one of my favorite panthers memories of all time.

I do not like the current playoff system. Teams should get in based on their records only. The six teams (in each conference) with the six best win vs. loss are the ones that should be playing in January. Period. The whole division winner thing is stupid. Just look at the NFC east this year. None of those teams deserve to be in the playoff hunt and yet one of those teams will HOST a playoff game. Total BS. The Panthers have the third best record in the league, yet are in fifth place in the NFC playoff picture.

He has a valid point, I was lookin at this today. Seattle and Philly in the playoffs scare me the most. I like our WC matchups better. I do not want to play the Saints or the Seahawks away

There's a reason why you can't make threads anymore.

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
