I literally cannot comprehend losing to the 49ers week one just looking at the 49ers offense vs. Carolina's defense alone.

Throw in a revamped WR core, CMC, healthy JStew, Olsen and hungry Cam....yeah I'll be shocked if this isn't at least a two score win.

Just kidding...

This body deserves an open casket. 

So maybe just a pillow to the face on the bus, which I know I can count on you for

We should be sitting 3-0 going into the Pats game.

Unrelated, but Atlanta should have to go to New England in prime time to open the season.

Nope only the Panthers get like that.

Going way, way back here... but the Patriots lost to the Bills 31-0 on the opening weekend of the 2003 season. Pats finished 14-2. Bills finished 6-10.

Do I need to remind you who won the Super Bowl in 2003? Let's just let the game be played and then overreact.

Haha. You went to the super bowl? I don't think I could ever step in there again after that

People said the exact same thing about losing to Seattle, and then Buffalo, in 2013... hell, I remember a number of posters calling that Seattle game the "biggest game in franchise history" in the week or two leading up to it. After the loss to Buffalo the sky had absolutely and unequivocally fallen.

Not saying that starting 0-1 or 0-2 is ideal but tough to completely write a season off after Week 1.

Shanahan is familiar with the the Panther's defense, but the Panther's should also be familiar with his offense. Brian Hoyer is a decent starting QB, Carlos Hyde is reportedly improved. They have a good receiver in Garcon, but not much across from him. 

It's a long trip for the Panthers, in the stadium of the Super Bowl loss, but going west is easier than going east.

we should fire the GM

[jfra78]

Not an option if Cam starts

[mc52beast]

If we lose week 1= we're 0-1

Pretty sure this team has started 0-1 quite a few times since the start-up

You can just about scratch Ahmad Brooks out as well, fwiw.
