[DaveThePanther2008]

God I would love to jump in on this prediction but good god.  We haven't even drafted yet.

 

I am going to reserve my prediction until we at least till we reach pre-season.

 

However, I will NEVER EVER predict Carolina loses to LUCK.

[Fidel Cashflow]

nice

[GoobyPls]

Packers and Eagles are two automatic L's in my book.

If we lose to the Jaguars and Houston the season is over.

There's only two games on the schedule I'm pretty damn sure Carolina will lose and thats @Seattle and vs. Green Bay.  After that the Panthers should be able to win every game and I'm going 14-2 because fug it we're due a baller season.

[Riverboat Ron]

19-0

#1 offense with 1132 total points

#1 defense with 0 points allowed, 134 sacks, 51 int's.

All realistic if Cam studies his playbook.

I do not like the ominous shape that your Prediction made. That's bad juju right there

[JPPT1974]

I think it will be a 11-5 or 12-4 record!

[PanthersUnited]

Honestly, i think these predictions of 12-14 wins is just too lofty, I have us 10-6 with 8-8 being our floor, (all this assuming we are and remain healthy for the most part) had we signed Greg Jennings MAYBE 11-5 with a 9-7 floor.

[CPantherKing]

Well, first I will focus on definite patterns. Rivera always gets off to a slow start prior to the BYE. Rivera always gets out coached against the Seahawks and Packers. The Panthers will lose to a team they were suppose to beat outside of division games (Vikings 2014/2011; Bills 2013; Chiefs 2012) . The Panthers will lose at least 2 division games. Rivera loses home openers, games before the BYE and games following the BYE. Rivera gets blown out in prime time when he faces playoff caliber teams 0-4 in the last 4 and 1-5 overall with the one Monday night win against the Patriots. Panthers finish strong to try and save Rivera's job. I believe a majority of fans would agree with these patterns. 

 

So, following those patterns let's begin.

 

@ JAC L
vs HOU W
vs NO W
@ TB L
BYE
@ SEA L
vs PHI L Prime time
vs IND L Prime time
vs GB L
@ TEN W
vs WAS W
@ DAL L Prime time and revenge game for ex-player (double whammie)
@ NO L
vs ATL W
@ NYG W
@ ATL W
vs TB W

 

I can see the Panthers based on their players and talent getting 11 wins, but factor in the coaching and patterns and I see an 8-8 season. That is about right for a Rivera led team with talent. Let's hope the coaches buck those 4 year trends, or the division is so horrible again that the Panthers get the division title with 8 wins.

[KillaCamNewton]

@ JAC - W - please dont fug this up Rivera, cause it will be a long season if you do

vs HOU - W- Watt will give us problems, but that offense should be no problem

vs NO - W- gonna take them awhile to get used to not having Graham

@ TB - W we own Tampa

BYE

@ SEA - L - no shot

vs PHI - W - no mccoy, no maclin. Possibly sanchez at QB

vs IND - L - we dont have the horses to match their offense

vs GB - L - terrible matchup for us

@ TEN - W - titans will pick #1 next season

vs WAS - W - we win despite our crowd being half skins fans

@ DAL - L - ron coaching on thanksgiving is a nightmare waiting to happen

@ NO - W - saints have mailed it in at this point

vs ATL - W - a game we should definitely win

@ NYG - W - toss up, but ill give us the benefit

@ ATL - L - our annual WTF game

vs TB - W - sweep to close out the season going into the playoffs

11-5, division champ, 3 seed behind GB and SEA

[Chimera]
