New York Post: "Meet the powerhouse Panthers," rank Panthers #1 in NFC

[gettlemanjack]

The New York Post, the 13th-oldest and seventh-most widely circulated newspaper in the United States, has Panthers #2 in in NFL only behind Broncos with the headline: "NFL Power Rankings: Meet the powerhouse Panthers"

"Cam Newton and the Panthers are flying high with a 2-0 start backed by a clamp-down defense... The Seahawks’ defense might get most of the attention, but its counterpart in Carolina needs to start being part of the conversation. The Panthers are 2-0 ... and almost all of the credit needs to go to a defense that..looks every bit as suffocating as the one in Seattle. ... Do-everything linebacker Luke Kuechly, the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year, is off to an unsurprising hot start, but he’s far from the whole story. It’s players like Dwan Edwards and Mario Addison (each with 2 1/2 sacks already) who are making the true difference."

The New York Post also tweeted: "NFL Power Rankings: Most wrote off the Panthers , but they look just as good as last year"

Panthers defense is better than the Seahawks

[Jangler]

welp, just like keeping the players away from the negative press it's probably more important to keep them away from the positive press.

Just as good? We have a rookie replacing our whole production from the receiving corps last year

And the mad scramble to regain credibility begins. The Panthers are a lot like Cam in that the media has misjudged them.

Some with eat their crispy Cajun seasoned Crow-jangles® like men, while others like Terry and Boomer will just hate and wish for us to fail and masturbate like crazed weasels if and when we do.

Should tell you a lot about what our production at the position was last year shouldn't it

 

Also don't undersell Avant and Cotchery

Not what I meant at all. Our receiving wasn't great last year

[Fan01]

I hate the sports media.  All they know is what was popular last week or they go off of the popular team.  We ran the table for how many games in a row before losing in the playoffs?  And they all picked us to drop back into the dog house.  They don't see Rivera as a top coach, they only now considering the defense as legit, and Cam is still only an ok QB with great upside.  Give me a break.
