That 4 game stretch....

[hepcat]

@ Seahawks

vs. Eagles

vs. Colts

vs. Packers

 

On paper that looks like a brutal stretch, but let's look at who these teams play the week before they play the Panthers....

 

@Seahawks - Seahawks play on the road against the Bengals.  These two teams have not played each other since 2011 before Russell Wilson came to town.  Bengals won in 2011 34-12.  Panthers haven't beat the Seahawks since 2007, and historically the Seahawks have straight up owned the Panthers.  The Panthers have a lot of loses to avenge.

 

vs. Eagles - Eagles play at home vs. the Giants on Monday night, then come to Carolina on a short week to play a Sunday night game against the Panthers.  Those two teams tend to beat up on each other so Carolina could be catching a wounded Eagles team on the road.  Another revenge game after the trashing laid down at the hands of Mark Sanchez on Monday night. 

 

vs. Colts - The Colts always have a cupcake schedule playing in the AFC South.  They have a home game against the Saints a week before they come to Carolina on Monday night.  The only playoff team from 2014 they play before coming to Carolina is the Patriots two weeks before, and they get them at home.  The Colts should be fresh and have an inflated win total before this game, 

 

vs. Packers - Panthers catch a break and catch the Packers on consecutive road trips.  The Packers are @ Denver the week before heading to Carolina.  Another revenge game opportunity against a team that thrashed the Panthers last year.  

 

All in all I don't think this stretch is as difficult as the brutal stretch the Panthers had in 2014 which nearly sunk the team if it weren't for the awful play of their division counterparts.

We'll also be facing a much different Eagles team.  Hell, they don't even know who their QB is, they've got like 17 of them.  I think 2-2 out of this stretch with loses to Seattle and GB is realistic, although I'm hoping for better.

It's weird to think that Eagles game is/could be against Bradford and Murray...or Sanchez and Matthews if the injury bug floats back around.

We'll lose to the Jags & Bucs to start 2-2, everyone will freak the fug out & cover the forum in CAM SUCKS SHULA SUCKS FIRE RIVERA FIRE GETTLEMAN threads.

Then we'll win all 4 of those games & everyone will crown us SB champions.

Then we'll lose the next game & everyone will bring out the pitchforks again.

4-0

 

Headstrong to take on anyone.

If Bradford is healthy the Eagles are going to light us up.

You have to look at a schedule one week at a time. It sounds cliche but it's the damn truth.

[caatfan]

If we can't win two out of those four, we ain't going far in the playoffs anyway.

The Golden Calf of Bristol and Polk!

Good ole Sam, right ?

[Mr. Scot]

Fearing Sam Bradford is a pretty clear sign you have no clue about football

[Jimmy]

Maybe The Golden Calf of Bristol will start

[Mark S]

If we come out 3-1 or better during that stretch, it'll be a special year for us

[GoobyPls]

Good ole Sam, right ?

We made Sanchez look like a pro bowl QB...
