Rriverrrrerrra says Panthers can win 10 games this season

[Sword]

Win, Lose, or Tie..I get the feeling that I"m not going to feel like this team is just completely out of every game by halftime..nothing was more demoralizing then that last year. 10 wins or 5 or whatever..it's going to be much more fun to watch.

OK. This is not as far fetched as one may think. And by "one", I mean the Media clowns. We were decimated by injuries, horrendous QB play, and a general feeling that it was a lost season - BEFORE the season started...(b/c JR knew about the impending lockout, and refused to get any quality FA's).

I have a feeling that 10 wins may be a little high, but I expect to be much improved. Playoffs is not out of the question, but we are in the toughest division in FB.

interesting point. morale of the team was shot before the season began. they had just lot a ton of leadership in a short amount of time and were feeling incredibly uncertain about the future because of the lockout and then there was the issue of having a lame duck coach and wondering what the new coaching staff was going to look like and what their role would be.

they were distracted and horribly unfocused and they just went in feeling overwhelmed. injuries o players didn't help things either. nothing that happened from the first game on did anything to make them feel good about what was going on.

they went in essentially certain that the season was lost. i doubt many people vocalized it on the team publicly, but you have to know that they felt it.

attitude doesn't win or lose games, but it helps accomplish both.

if the days of listless games and sluggish starts are over, then we've got a pretty good chance at shocking people

I think this is a good way to pick out the milquetoast conservative Foxball fans. If the coach being confident enough to make an optimistic prediction for the team is scary and uncomfortable to you, you probably think a punt is a good play, too. You probably also secretly fantasize about more virile men stealing your wife.

Saints are gay. etc.

I think they could be a .500 team but I also think we're in the best division in football. Our division games are loaded.

Yup, if we were in the NFC west I would give us a real good chance of making the playoffs. And if we do win 10 games in the NFC south we have to be a favorites...right?

[Porn Shop Clerk]

10 didn't do poo for the Bucs

[Jangler]

yeah, but we were 0 and 6 last year, that won't happen this year.

1-5 f**k yEAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Glad to see that a lot of people are finally coming around to this 10 win idea... It's about Damn time! Me and My boy Ron have been saying it privately for weeks...
