Are you all in on a Panthers Playoff Push?

Meh, the Bucs tanked for years (unintentionally) and it didn't do them much good.  They even had the top pick in the draft, drafted a qb, and that qb now plays for New Orleans.  Or I should say occasionally plays for New Orleans.

Bucs will be back to that after Brady retires.

[Fright]

ALLLLLL IN. 

 

Hoping we get the cowbitches and annihilate them.

They may already be back to that.  I wouldn't be surprised if they lost every single remaining game this year.  Cincy next week is a probable loss.  After that, all three games are probably 50/50 for them.

I honestly think it's fool's gold. We've beaten the Falcons (terrible). The Broncos (terrible). The Ravens (reeling, 1-3 over their last 4). The Seahawks (reeling, 2-3 over their past five with all three losses being to teams with losing records).

Even with our offensive game plan entirely built around decreasing Sam Darnold's ability to lose games for us, that multiple turnover game is coming. We all know it.

We lost to the Ravens with Baker stinking it up. But I hear you.

They had to sign a qb in free agency to get a Super Bowl.  

The Bucs are basically us. The only difference is that they actually capitalized on their two shots.

We talk every year about how preseason games can't match the speed and intensity of a regular season game. 

Likewise, regular season games can't match the speed and intensity of a playoff game.

So many of our core guys have never experienced playoff football. Even if we go one and done, the experience our core guys will get will be invaluable moving forward.

Does it mean a later draft pick? Yup. That just means Fitterer has to step up and find great players regardless of where we are picking. That's his job.

We also have a lot of picks from the 49ers to use for trading up.

I have no expectation of the team winning it all but at this point, why not take the weak NFCS title by force and keep building that new NFL-level attitude?

Yet another alt account. Is it one mentally ill person making many or multiple people who are afraid to post on their main?

I'm all in because it wouldn't matter if I wasn't. I also realize that this off-season is the key and getting the HC, DC and especially OC correct are going to be the key to success moving forward. It wouldn’t matter if we had the 1st, 2nd and 3rd pick this year with a coach like Rhule at the helm. We have to get this right or it's another 3-5 years of purgatory.

NFL needs to change the rules so that if you have a losing record you are auto disqualified for the playoffs. Give the NFCS spot to the 4th place NFCE team.

At this point we kind of have to be.  Draft position is out the window if that was a concern so may as well win.
