The 2018 Panthers are the 2011 Bucs

The Bucs, if you'll recall, started 4-2. Optimism permeated throughout the disease-ridden cesspool that is Raymond James Stadium. Dozens of fans lined up to witness Buccaneer football at its finest -- and then Raheem Morris remembered who he is, and the Yucs lost 10 in a row to finish 4-12.

The Panthers started 6-2. Optimism permeated throughout the heavenly confines of Bank of America Stadium. Three million fans witnessed Panther football at its finest -- until Ron Rivera remembered that he forgot to hire anyone worth a fug on the defensive side of the ball, Graham Gano returned to his usual self and the Panthers lost *checks notes* eight in a row to finish 6-10.

Things we have going for us that they didn't: Franchise QB, franchise RB, two big-play WRs and a franchise LB. Otherwise, they're a carbon copy (besides the diseases)

We've gone O-fer in December one time in franchise history -- so far

The 2006 Panthers were 8-8 so if the trend holds true the team will be 2-2 in December. Overall they're both just underachieving teams who came into the season with high expectations and dropped a lot of games they shouldn't have, even getting wrecked by the Steelers both years.

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
