We are not "legit"

[panthers55]

Respect is earned not given. After going 7-8-1 last year in a crappy division it is understandable that we are not thought of as that great. Add that our receivers and Oline were bad and it is understandable that we have to prove ourselves. I have no problem we are being called the worst 11-0 team in history. Maybe they will call us the worst 19-0 team ever although we will have been the only one to ever go 19-0.

I think we are definitely legit.  In fact, we are to legit to quit. 

You're right Davidson Deac. We're not quiting until we have Super Bowl 50 in the Carolinas.

We are 11-0, we just beat the Cranberry sauce out of the Cowboys on National TV yesterday.   Can we just celebrate the victory for a day or two before starting this type of thread?

How else is Vegas going to get people to bet against the Panthers?

It's actually the other way around. If you want more people to bet the other team, you make the Panthers a heavy favorite (give the other team more points).

I don't know of a team getting more respect right now than the Panthers other than maybe the Patriots.  This idea that the Panthers are getting "disrespected" at this point in the season is becoming tired and just plain inaccurate.

I mostly agree, but I do feel that Arizona is more respected at this point.
