[pstall]

Yes kid's it's that time again where we try to share what little bit of knowledge we have and mix it with just a sprinkle of common sense, add some homerism and go easy on the insanity for 2013's

 

BOLD YET REASONABLE PREDICIONS

 

Panther's win more close games than lose this year

Deangelo rushes for 821 yds, 6 td's

Smitty catches less overall passes but his td's go up. 68 rec and 7 td's

Cam throws 6 more td's and 3 less int's- He also rushes for about 167 less yds and one less td for 7

Lafell and Olson get 6 td's each

A 4 game winning streak

Look more return for td's by the special teams

 

We win a game on a punt return late in the 4th ON THE ROAD.

 

I'm about to drive for the next 6 hours so share away muchacho's.

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

Panthers lead league in takeaways despite having a 16th or worse ranked pass defense.

Smith and Olsen both have 1000+ receiving yards, 3 other Panthers break 800 receiving yards.

3 out of five trips to the red zone end in td's for the Panthers offense.

Star never records a tackle in the first half of a game, due to teams starting out by doubling him up.

OFFENSE

-Cam has greater than 62.5% completion percentage and less than 10 INTS.

-LaFell leads team with 80 rec and 1200 yds.  Smith goes for around 65 rec, 900 yds but leads with 10 TDs.

-Our OL holds it's own with Byron Bell and Travelle Wharton rating out in the top 1/2 of the league at their respective positions.

 

DEFENSE

-Hardy leads team in sacks with 17.5 and CJ comes back down a bit with 8.0.

-Luke leads NFL in tackles with 180 combined but does not win DPOY.

-Norman becomes a shut-down corner and "Nor-man's Land" becomes a popular phrase with the 4th string Fox broadcast team.

 

OVERALL

-Panthers go 10-6 and make the playoffs.

-Rivera finally reads Clock Management and Late Game Situational Football for Dummies, is retained by Gettleman and the Huddle implodes while Gettleman faps because he realizes he won't find anyone better/doesn't want to mess with Cam's development even more.
