Could you imagine if they signed Vick and Sproles too? They would be stacked on both sides of the ball and we'd be really worried about them. I know Vick will be injured for some games, but what he would bring to that offense would be scary.

I really really wish they had kept Greg Schiano another year.  Lovie Smith is an actual NFL head coach that can win games....NFC South will be tough.

 

I wished that the Lions would get Lovie Smith.

i think they'll work their way back up to .500

 

they'll have a top 10 D and a bottom half offense. 

 

nfcs is going to be tight next year. falcons record gets better as does the bucs, but we and the saints see some regression. i don't see two teams making it to the playoffs next year. I've got this knot in my stomach that says we have a winning record, but miss out in the playoffs, mainly because i think the conference stays strong but the nfcs levels out and there are no back to back winners of the division. i hope we are the first, but it will be hard to make that happen unless the offense can figure out how to put more points on the board than what we did the last half of the season.

Carolina is definitely taking a step back next year....no doubt about it.  Panthers are losing too much talent to be 12-4 again.  Also, the Bucs will be much better and the Falcons should be more competitive.  I just hope the Saints completely fall off the map, but that'd take Brees hitting the wall of age.

Bucs will be competitive this year, no doubt. Their defense is already a strength and as we know, if a strength is strengthened it can go a long way. If they stay healthy on offense and add a weapon or two, the Bucs will be dangerous.

I completely disagree. We have no idea what will happen in the coming weeks and the draft. The only huge loss is Gross, the rest are pretty much just fill-in players that we signed last season to fill the roster who ended up playing well. We can definitely do similarly to last year through FA and we can do well in the draft and improve in areas we need improvement. Could we take a step back? Certainly. But will we definitely? No. Our entire front 7 will stay dominant which takes the pressure off of whoever we have in the secondary and with our young DT's having a year of experience, it'll be even better. Our defense will surely be top 5 if not top 2-3 again. On offense if we can get solid OTs and draft WR or get someone like Nicks, we'll be improving. Why does everyone think that we're definitely going to take a step back? We don't have Hurney any more and we've got Ron Rivera and DG, who are actually smart.

12-4 will be hard to repeat for sure. I imagine our schedule we again be tough having won the South. But are we really losing that much talent. We aren't really losing any core players. We're not losing anyone that was worth much more than a 1 year deal last year, we will find others to fill the holes.

 

It'll be interesting to see what we do have come camp.

 

Mitchell, Munnerlyn, LaFell and Ginn are really what we're talking about. Gross will be the big one but he'd be going anyway. Smitty too if that happens, hopefully not.

 

We stayed relatively healthy bar G, that'll be hard to repeat also.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers’ Biggest Roster Needs

      BPA in draft all the way. Address your biggest needs in free agency.

      Mike Jackson

      Exactly.  You let him play out next season and continue to develop Thorton.  Jackson’s earned his next contract, but his age and the risk of tying up such a large portion of the payroll at one position leads me to believe that we’ll let him walk. In all likelihood, we’ll draft another CB, or two, and bring in some journeymen to fill the roster void, between now and the start of the 2027 season.  That’ll create more balance financially across the roster enabling us to invest in other areas.

      I’m just not impressed with these hires/openings

      By strato · Posted

      As far as the NFCS … I think this division will be hotly contested the next couple of years.   I am tending to pay more respect to both Atlanta and the Saints n terms of how strong they will be moving forward, than not.    I am mixed on Ryan but think they have a decent roster to start with. I don’t think he blundered hiring Stefanski. And that offense can be dangerous with a QB. Plus, defense is arrow up. No 1st round pick, WB issues will dull their effectiveness. Question is, to what degree?   I think Moore is going to be a good HC and can overcome tape that people have on Shough. They need a lot but they were playing with people. Just the way you want to see all the way to the end.    Not sure about Tampa they have Mayfield but I don’t think they can maintain their success and Bowles is not going to last much longer. They have to go through all that. Gonna be tough once it starts. Might already have started.    For us I feel pretty good about Morgan. But less so about our offense, we have some short term RB and OL issues and those things are critical given what we are working with at QB.  Overall, mixed. Like a lot of what I see but some major question marks remain.
