Power Rankings - Guess who is last?

[Jeremy Igo]

The Athletic has updated their power rankings and also listed a season prediction for each team

Guess who is last? You guess the Panthers? WRONG

 

We are 29 BABY!!!

Quote

29. Carolina Panthers

Perhaps no team will feel the pain of a shortened offseason more than Carolina. They’re the only team with a new head coach, offensive play-caller, defensive play-caller and starting quarterback. If the line can protect, the offense has a chance to be fun. But it would take a minor miracle for the defense to be even mediocre. This season is about Matt Rhule setting the culture and the Panthers finding out which young players they can build around.

 

 

Suck it, Jacksonville. 

Suck it, Washington

Suck it, New York Jets

 

That is all.

Pretty accurate rundown of the current state of this team. I think we will score a LOT of points... but still lose 12 games lol

Guess the year

24. Carolina Panthers

Week 1 opponent: at Jacksonville Jaguars

What's good: Luke Kuechly remains one of the best linebackers in football, and the Panthers nabbed another good one in first-round pick Shaq Thompson.

What's bad: Kelvin Benjamin tore his ACL in the preseason, leaving Cam Newton with an even smaller set of receivers. Newton and the defense will have to carry this team.

Hah. Seriously. 2014 we made the playoffs, won a game, played Seattle tough (90 yard pick six was the difference) and had a 5-1 finish. Just because some idiot only looked at our record for the 2015 preview and the injury to KB doesn’t mean our 0-8 finish is being overlooked now. We also won the division with a 7-8-1 record. Two teams in our division this year will likely have 10 wins. I can’t believe I’m even explaining the differences, Lol.

Point is preseason power rankings don't mean poo, especially when there aren't any preseason games.

Yeah, that is a pretty awful way of attempting to get across that message. You could have, I don't know, just said:
