reading comprehension skills are lacking for some..

i'll sum it up for everyone.

BEFORE the season, our strength of schedule was #1 based off our

opponents combined win/loss record from the previous year 2010 season

this article is pointing out, that now that the season is over.. our actual strength of schedule was 14th. that is based off what each of our opponents did this year in 2011.

there ya go

i feel good about it.

we can pull off 10-11 wins and get into the playoffs.

I don't give a poo about the playoffs. I want somebody to break out with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. Some hard, pipe-hittin' niggaz need to go to work on the homes around here in the NFC South. I want Breeze, Ice, Colston, Turner, Julio, Roddy, and fvckn Jimmy Jam redbone freak on their fvckn backs. It's time to take this division over and not on the back of a star athlete QB, but by force. We need to bust some heads. We need some attitude.

I don't care if we win if we look like a bunch of sling it around the dome on turf fairies like the falcunts and the taints look. Fvck that! Where are the men on this team? Find 'em Ron. You know what I'm talking about.

Did the Panthers winning 6 games make it statistically less difficult, since the teams they beat must have been a little worse by virtue of losing to the Panthers?

No way this could be accurate... too much can happen between now & the start of the season.

the answer is 14th. that's what this topic is about

Sorry I meant for next year. We will not know until after the season though. Most likely it will be harder than 17th since I don't think the NFC East will be as bad as this year again.

guilty party right here. :o

it is accurate because it isn't talking about next season.

heading into this season our schedule looked to be the toughest in the league based on W-L records from the previous year.

after the season was actually over, it turns out our schedule was the 17th hardest. it wasn't as bad as people thought it was going to be. not sure what that says for our 6-10 record.

still...just glancing at our list of opponents for next year it doesn't look to be as tough as this year. that could all change as we get to next year, though.

Alot of people think its talking about next year, but it obviously says 2011. That being said, 17th doesnt surprise me at all. There were alot of teams that werent as good as originally predicted (colts, vikings, bucs x2). We did well tho considering

what is so confusing? LOL

before the season started, our schedule was predicted to be one of the toughest in the league. ONCE THE GAMES WERE PLAYED, it turned out to be an average schedule..
