Yes it’s homerism but bet on the Panthers to win the division

[pantherclaw]

It'll be a disappointment to me if they don't win this division.  It's gotten soft.

Also since last night, as always Matt Rhules plan is already falling apart and they refuse to notice.

If it's homerism, is it a good bet? No. Even with Bucs offensive line problems, I don't see any way the Panthers beat them. Maybe Baker does what he did in Cleveland and we manage to beat the Bucs like he did the Steelers. But, I doubt it.

Even if we could win the division, there is no guarantee we'd beat them in the playoffs (unrelated to the bet). 

I also feel as if people are sleeping hard on the Saints. The lack of respect is earned, for sure, but they have a stout defense and their offense is stacked.

You are right.

It is homerism.

Have you somehow managed to miss Tom Brady's entire career at New England?

The Bucs do not need a credible Oline. The refs will keep opposing defenses off him regardless.

I suspect Brady doesn’t make it through the season. No oline equals years of payback coming.

Stop it. 

You're getting my hopes up.

Lost a great LT in FA.

 

It's a three team race, even with Rhule. Look around, the other HCs are nothing to brag about either....

I think they may have lost their other LT candidate to injury this weekend as well. And his back-up/competitor for the spot is injured, too.

Under normal circumstances, we'd have a shot, but I'm still not sure we don't have the fourth place coach in the division. Still... even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then.

I mean two re-treads that took another what 10 years to get another HC... Plus the "How" they got it is sus as allllllllllllllll hell. The other is a rookie. 

Its rhules magic 3rd year time after the first rough two... The energy and feeling is different this year, many have said so. 

I mean if I had to put a numbers on it- 

41- yucs

33- iants

25- panthers

1- failcons

Gotta win the battle of attrition first.

[bigskypanthersguy]

I dunno.  I have concerns about the oline and the run defense.

It'd be great to be proven wrong.

If we are able to win against our division, then we will go to the playoffs. It’s that simple.
