When do we get a Tepper mic up. Can we do that for the 1st Tampa game?

Tampa is going to poo the bed against NO or ATL- one not both. My guess is ATL on Thursday night football because those games are weird. I think they lose to Miami. Not big deal if we lose to Seattle, more of a bonus if we win or a make up if we lose to NO again. But Miami is kinda a rival for Tampa and I could see them overlooking it. The rest will be what happens between us and them. Not saying this because I want it to happen, but a lot of their guys are barely holding on. Baker is a rough sack away from falling entirely apart.

If he wins the division, I would support him getting COTY 100% considering the mess that we have been in for so long. He owes about 75% of the award to Dan Morgan.

This season reminds me a lot of 1999. The ups and downs. That was the season where I moved from a casual to a fanatic and Steve Beuerlein is still the fuging man.

And an ankle, and oblique, and wrist I think.

Downside to that, is if we do beat Seattle we may not need to beat them a 2nd time. Depending on how they do up to that point.

There’s a path if we split with Tampa but will need some help from Miami, New Orleans, and Atlanta. Mainly, the last two. Sweeping Tampa is the easiest way. If they lose to New Orleans this week or Atlanta next week and we win after the bye, it changes a lot. So find a New Orleans jersey for Sunday, burn it before next Sunday and then find an Atlanta jersey for the next week.

So, Carolina (7-6) goes into a Bye Week while they sit on top of the NFCS with Tampa Bay (7-5). For those that don’t know here is how the tiebreaking procedures work for the Division: Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs). Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. Strength of victory in all games. Strength of schedule in all games Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed in all games. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed in all games. Best net points in common games. Best net points in all games. Best net touchdowns in all games. Coin toss The Panthers are currently 7-6 with a 2-1 record in the division and a 5-3 record in the NFC. The Bucs are currently 7-5 with a 2-0 record in the division and 5-3 record in the NFC. *Should the Panthers make it to Tiebreaker #5 they will almost certainly lose since this team enjoys winning in the final minute each week. Hopefully, they can avoid letting it go that far. Remaining Schedules: The Panthers round out their schedule with: · Bye Week · @ New Orleans (2-10) · VS Tampa Bay (7-5) · VS Seattle (9-3) · @ Tampa Bay (7-5) Tampa will round out their schedule with: · VS New Orleans (2-10) · VS Atlanta (4-8) · @ Carolina (7-6) · @ Miami (5-7) · VS Carolina (7-6) So to make this even more complicated, you need to cheer for the Saints this week and be prepared to hate them next week. Hopefully, them, the Falcons, or the Dolphins can give us a hand along the way. Conclusion: The easiest path forward is to beat New Orleans and sweep the Bucs. However, that would be too easy so we may need some help from our cousins in Georgia and Louisiana. Personally, I think Miami may give Tampa some problems since it looks like they are starting to turn their season around. But knowing us, we will find a way to lose to the Saints and somehow beat Seattle just to keep things interesting. There is 1 quarter of the football season left, and the way I have it figured that’s kind of how our playoff chances go over the next 4 games: By finishing: · 1-3: (Eliminated, even if one wins against Tampa, it won’t matter) · 2-2: (50% chance depending on who we beat, if Seattle/New Orleans- No. If Tampa both times, maybe if not likely, would still need some help from somebody on their schedule). · 3-1: (Very likely if not certainly. Would mean sweeping the Bucs and either the Saints/Seahawks OR beating Saints/Seahawks with at least one win against the Bucs) · 4-0: (Dust off your Sunday best and clip your nails, we are hosting a playoff game!) So get ready for meaningful football in December, because it’s here for the first time in a long while.

If I remember right, the Panthers complained one time under Rivera and never heard a response

I was wrong they moved around some games for December but they have until day days before the game to make the flex. Week 18 won’t be announced until week 17 is over.

I’m fine with no primetime games. I actually prefer the 4pm slot but we are terrible at night

I think all the flexing has happened except for the last two weeks? I could be wrong though. They won’t announce the Seattle and away Tampa game for another week or two. I think the Saints/Home Tampa game are in stone.

I would do it just for the fact his salary was reduced. I would rotate him into the slot with Coker and McMillan outside to keep Legette from shitting on us. However, they have had their slot guy in Renfrow and haven’t really used him since he had a decent day in Arizona, so while it may be an improvement it does make sense for them not to be interested because they have a dollar store Adam Thielen inactive every week. I think they just use Legette as a decoy because he is fast enough to get open downfield and he can pull help away from Coker and McMillan. Idk

It’s 131 I think
