My playoff predictions


Nate Dogg

Recommended Posts

The outcome of tonight's crazy game had huge playoff implications. Now that the Lions have choked once again, mark my words, the Packers will sneak into the NFCN division winner spot. This means the most likely scenario for the wild card teams are a road trip to Philly or Green Bay. This makes Sunday's show down with the Saints even bigger. I guess our chances in Philly aren't too bad, but I definitely wouldn't want to take on Rodgers in Lambo mid January.

 

However, if we win this game the wild card teams would be New Orleans and San Fran. They would have to go on the road and win a tough match up, and then come into Carolina. SF/NO could get upset on the road which would be the best case scenario. But even if they get it done, we still would get one of them in a home game. And who knows, one of them could get by the first round and then upset Seattle at home giving us home field throughout.

 

This is the first time in a long time the NFC is hands down stronger than the AFC. Sunday against the Saints is the biggest game for us in the last 5 years. A win drastically increases our Super Bowl chances. Buckle up boys! It's gonna be a wild one!

I guarantee the Cowboys win that division and make the playoffs. Philly will lose to Chicago and then the finale to dallas and finish 8-8, dallas will get in.

 

Also I think if we went to Lambeau it would be a fun game for us. Green Bay isn't all that scary...cam in the cold.... would make for good building of the legend.

 

We win sunday it's all moot.

Im glad you made this thread because I have a question for anyone who knows. Say we win the NFCs with a 1st round bye, we win the first playoff game and somehow the Seahawks lose in the playoffs, would the team that beat the Seahawks have to come to Charlotte to play us? In other words, with us getting a first round bye and Seattle losing their playoff game say for example to the 49ers, would the 49ers have to come to Charlotte?

Yes the higher seed gets the home game. So if San Fran or NO was to go in and win they would have to come to us. If Seattle wins then we would have to go there assuming we win.

I want San Fran to win the WC card round, go into Seattle and beat them and San Fran come to us for the NFC championship game, I know we would win! Just the thought we have a chance of hosting a NFC championship game is amazing.

    • 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
