Your 5 Boldest Predictions for the 2014 Season


Icege

Recommended Posts

i thought these type of posts had finally died out... oh well... to each their own.

 

the only area that the Panthers have even POSSIBLY gotten worse is the OT positions. every other position group has gotten better or has the potential to be better. 

 

pessimists... y'all make me lol

e

Come on now. They aren't pessimists. They're realists. They get upset when you mix the two up like that.

1. Gano will have at least 10 fg of 50+ yards

 

2. Tolbert will have more than 500 rush yards and 10+ total TD

 

3. Bene Benwikere will win the nickel spot and have 3+ INT

 

4. KB will lead all rookie receivers in TDs with 8+

 

5. Avant and Cotchery will combine for 12+ TDs

Excuse me for expressing my feeling that we're going to suck. We're about even with the Bucs and the Falcons but the Saints went all in this year and I don't think there's any way we can keep up with them.

 

i can see how you say the Saints, maybe even the Bucs, but the Falcons?

 

They didn't draft extremely well, they're changing defensive schemes, and the players they signed in FA are "just a guy" at best. i know that's about what we did but...uh

The Panthers break the 1984 Bears record of 72 sacks in a season with 73.

 

Greg Hardy 18

Charles Johnson 12 

Kawann Short 8

Kony Ealy 7

Roman Harper 6

Star Lotulelei 5

Melvin White 4

Dwan Edwards 3

Luke Kuechly 3

Thomas Davis 3

etc...

 

RR suits up and gets #73 himself

1- Cason gets an interception TD and a punt return TD!

2- Cotch has 10 TDs again this year!

3- D-Will breaks a single season record in the month of October! Most likely the first game we have that month.

4- Godfrey starts on the outside after dominating in the Nickel.

5- Dickson has 500+ receiving yards and 5+ TDs!

I'll do 2

 

1) Kugbila never sees a snap

2) Our Safeties are a problem all year. We drop Roman Harper late in the season

3) Greg Olsen loses a step and never performs again

4) We are last in the league in rushing

5) Despite having the #1 defense in the league we go 6-10. And Steve Smith scores 3 times against us in a blowout and beats up Godfrey for no reason.

 

or...

 

1) Kugbila Turner Chandler and a free agent pick up give us a solid line

2) Benjamin has 900 yards...however 223 of those come against the Browns setting a Panthers record and solidifying home field advantage in the playoffs.

3) Benwikere quietly has 5 interceptions on the year. 

4) Gano hits a 68 yarder in preseason 

5) 13-3 with a home game against the 49ers.

You put the fear in me. I'm scared for our nickelback against Smitty. I don't want to see a young guy like benwikere have to face him.

  1. Kelvin Benjamin cements the nickname Optimus Prime with 1013 yards receiving and 13 touchdowns.
  2. Week 3 the Panthers lose to the Steelers as Mike Mitchell causes 2 fumbles by  DeAngelo Williams and Cam Newton in the second half.
  3. Week 4 the Panthers lose while getting torched through the air by the Ravens passing game with Steve Smith accounting for over 100 yards and 3 TDs.
  4. Week 5 the Panthers lose to the Bears as Jimmy Clausen replaces an injured Jay Cutler to lead the the Bears back to an overtime victory.
  5. Week 7 the Panthers lose to the Packers as Julius Peppers exploits the Panthers OTs all day coming up with a 3 sack game and an interception on Cam returned for a TD.
  6. Week 13 the Panthers lose to the Vikings as Captain Munnerlyn picks off Cam Newton 2 times returning the final pick for a game winning touchdown.
  7. Against the Saints and Falcons Harper and DeCoud get picked on and exploited resulting in 2 more Panthers loses.
  8. The Panthers lose the division to the Saints as they struggle to pick up key third downs in the passing game late in the season.
  9. The Panthers make the playoffs as a wildcard, but lose their playoff game due to the lack of receiving threats. If only they had one more clutch WR.

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
