The panthers have a chance to make history next week

So as you all know obviously we're closing in on the final leg of the season, and room for error is shrinking by the minute so in conclusion I think it was big that we came away with the victory intact. But anyway, with the win today the panthers accomplished two things in addition to maintaining placement in the standings. For the first time in franchise history the panthers have defeated the dolphins in the regular season. The second thing is that the Panthers have now won 7 straight, which I believe they haven't done going back to 1996.

Next week is going to be a pressuring game because the bucs are trying to salvage the season and play spoiler at the same time. They picked off stafford like 4 times, and I know that because it's fuging up my fantasy matchup right now. A few weeks ago they beat the same Miami team we barely skated by with a win against. It's probably our most important game besides the two saints games remaining in the season because the cardinals will not stop biting our heels and it's a divisional matchup, which counts on your overall record, your conference record, and your divisional record.

If the panthers win next week, we will clinch a winning season for the first time in 5 years, and win 8 games in a row, which this franchise has never done in the regular season. Let's keep this gravy train moving and keep trailblazing.

22-19 (TB - MIA) is not a beat down. I hope the Panthers don't expect to run the ball up the middle against Tampa Bay or drives will be killed fast and early. I expect  Tampa Bay to use the same game plan as the Dolphins and Patriots against us. Shula has to be more creative in the run game to keep the offense balanced. I am happy this game is at home, the crowd noise should help us start fast.

    • Bruce Arians said when evaluating a college prospect they have to win on 3rd down and in the 2 min drill to be successful in the nfl.
    • We took Luke when we had Jon Beason, and a hurt Jonathon Brooks when we had Chuba. Just noting.  I don't think teams are going to pass up on an impact player regardlessly if whether they need something else. There's a good argument that drafting an inferior player, and especially an obviously inferior player, based upon need is a pathway to failure.  I'm glad we took Tetairoa McMillan even though there were arguably bigger needs.
    • As much as I'd love Cam or Mahomes I'd also settle for a QB that is at least better than average at something other than 4th quarter comebacks/game winning drives. He's literally bottom third in the league in most categories (yards, completion percentage, int percentage/turnovers, YPA, IAYPA, QBR and QB rating) and right around average in a couple others, notably TD % where he is 15th and YAC/PA where he is 9th. If Bryce can improve I'll be happy with him. But all this stuff about us asking for perfection / insane ability is a bit ridiculous. Most of us "haters" just see a QB that is basically below average over his career to date and has shown relatively little consistency in his third year.  NFL offenses don't need 400 yards every week at all, but they do require a QB that can move the ball, and Bryce struggles often with that (hence why our overall offensive rank is so bad despite an overall good rushing rank).
