Is there anything preventing us from being a Super Bowl team?

At least on talk radio, I'm hearing a lot of people talking about a letdown this week. I would have agreed that was possible even a couple of weeks ago, but the way the Panthers have taken care of business against both bad and great teams, I'm finally a believer that this team has turned the corner and the old ways we used to do thinks don't matter. Great QB, Super Bowl defense, great coaching staff (!), fantastic short yardage team. Great mix of veteran leadership and young players that don't know any better.

 

So let me ask you: looking at the other top teams in the league, is there any that you see having a better all-around team and coaching staff than we do? Which ones? And if you can't think of any that have a significant advantage over us, why do you think this team isn't a Super Bowl team if that's what you think?

We are only guaranteed at least a 7-9 season right now.  Lets see how we do over the next 6 games before proclaiming us a super bowl team.  In addition to other teams, there are still factors like injuries to key players which we have skirted for the most part this year.  Hopefully that continues and Johnson makes it back soon.  Lets make the playoffs first.

Yeah CJ is our 2nd most important player on our D.

Broncos: Not an impressive TEAM at all outside of Peyton Manning

Seahawks: Poor offensive line, would have beaten them if DeAngelo had just secured the ball

 

Yeah but the problem is the Broncos do have Manning and if we were to play Seattle in the playoffs it'll be in Seattle tho I do believe we can win in Seattle.

two teams scare me. 

 

seattle playing in seattle. i don't like that at all, esp. during the playoffs. if we play them at home again or if we were to play them on a neutral field, i think we win. 

 

the broncos also scare me but our defense should scare them as well. i think that game could be pretty evenly matched, tbh. it's just.  team that if things go wrong for us it could really turn ugly in a hurry.

No team or stadium scares me.  As some pundits have said, our game travels.

 

I think we can beat Seattle in Seattle and New Orleans in the dome.  Won't be easy, but if we continue to be efficient and have these long sustained drives and keep playing great defense, we can beat anyone anywhere

      Known Prospect Meetings with Panthers

      Taking only players from the sheet that are realistically available in or after the listed round, I’d like… 1st: DT Caleb Banks (Styles not realistic) 2nd: LB Jacob Rodriguez 3rd: OT Best available from Bowry, Barber, and Casey 4th: CB Daylen Everette 5th: S Jalen Huskey 6th: RB Adam Randall 7th: IOL Best available from Lemieux, Dawkins, Leausa, and Brose   I know nothing about some of the players listed, but it seems like that would be the best way it could fall for now. I’m sure the list of who we meet will change a ton, and there will also be players we don’t meet with to keep quiet. I’d love to pick up Randall in the late rounds.

      Tight End: The Need is Bigger than We Think

      Not what I said. They know within the building why we aren't utilizing TEs more. If the rumors were true that we were seriously pursuing a couple of decent receiving TEs that strongly points toward a lack of quality receiving TEs currently on the roster. Does that mean we consider drafting one at 19? I don't know, but it wouldn't shock me and if we did there's only one guy it would be. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see TE drafting somewhere in the first three rounds.

      Yeah, I don’t know. Tepper was behind the Bryce selection. Behind firings and hiring over his lack of development.  He doesn’t have to literally tell them their hands are tied for them to know this. It is in the air constantly. The Canales Bryce play calling was even portrayed by more than one person as Canales failing Bryce, instead of Bryce being responsible for his own performance (except when he does well, then it is all him). Now they have an extra coach in, to help the new OC get results from this QB.  The atmosphere is not welcoming to prototypical young QBs that have talent. You get Jake Plummer types or old vets. I think we are stuck.
