Now Wilks has us back to being the same kind of organization we were under Fox, Rivera, et al.

Which is why he has to go, and he will eventually. We may all be a couple of years (or three) closer to a dirt nap, but I don't see Wilks getting us up into that top echelon of teams. And I certainly don't see McAdoo doing it. I'm kinda skeptical as to whether Fitt can do it, but I'm nowhere near totally soured on him. I know some of you have soured on Tepper, but I don't think that it's productive, and I'm not going to waste useless energy wishing that we had another owner. I hope that he figures it out or just gets lucky. I think that he means well, and I reject the notion that he's akin to Jerry Jones or Dan Schneider.

Heck yeah, im still all in. Make the playoffs, get that culture going and then do what you need to do to get Anthony Richardson or Will Levis ( assuming CJ or Bryce don't have a justin fields like fall.)

I think one of them falls down a few spots. Huston will take one of them and the other will fall a bit, maybe out of the top 10 unless someone trades up for them. I just have this weird feeling about those 2.

We still have a decent chance of falling ass backwards into the playoffs if Tampa can't get its crap together. 

Well if they lose their next game (against the Cardinals? doubt it) and we lose our next game (against the Lions? Probably), it will be them against us (us, meaning the Panthers) where SOMEONE has to win.    lol

 

But I think after next weekend, this whole thing will be put to bed once and for all.

Just...........................................No. I know people (I gotta admit, I got suckered into it too) wanted to win a bad division just for the sake of getting to the playoffs, but I'm back on the tank. I hope people know that if we win the division, Wilks is most likely here for another two years, which means another 2 years of uninspiring mediocre football. Wilks is not the guy to get us to the superbowl. He's the guy to get your team back to mediocrity.

Bad take.  While Wilks may or may not be successful.  Right now he is raising another mans kids on the football field. Got zero input over coordinators and personnel when it came to putting this team together.  Had his best player traded.  Whether you want that man to be the coach or not put some respect on his name and be fair minded.

Right now I'd say it's back to the future.

We've generally been, even in the low years, a group that could beat bad teams but wasn't good enough to hang with the better ones.

Under Rhule, we descended to a team that could only beat the worst of the worst or occasionally get lucky.

Now Wilks has us back to being the same kind of organization we were under Fox, Rivera, et al.

Still hoping for better somewhere down the road...

This is why I’m perfectly fine with casting a wide net for our next head coach. I like Wilks but I really can’t see him coaching the Panthers beyond the mediocrity and inconsistency that has plagued this team for most of its existence.

There’s a scenario where we clinch the division against the Bucs on New Years day and have nothing to play for in New Orleans. 
 

Here is that scenario

Falcons lose at Ravens

Saints lose at Browns

Panthers beat Lions

Bucs lose at Cardinals

 

if those four things happen this week a panthers win vs the Bucs gives the panthers the division and an essential bye week in week 18 against the Saints.

After seeing how the Steelers, in by far their worst year under Tomlin, with their shittiest roster he has had to field, came in to our house and straight up punked our ass, does anyone actually think we could rebound against the Lions? Lol. And 

 

Then win two divisional games on top of that? Yes, our division sucks ass, but throw out the projections when you're playing divisional games, none of the analytics matter... I honestly think the Lions will snuff out any remaining hope for us this weekend.  If the Steelers seemed overwhelming from a physicality standpoint, then the Lions are going to seem straight up criminal lol.

weather is going to be very cold on saturday that will slow down the lions high powered offense and give us a chance to pound them with the running game which there d is not good.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
