Panthers are 13-0
 
The kittens have matched the Saints Super Bowl season undefeated record.

Their last 3 games are: @ Giants, @ failclowns, Tampa

They will have to decide if they want to rest starters or try for undefeated record.

Anyone think any of those teams will hang a loss on them?

The NFL seems pretty hell-bent on giving them every call imaginable in some kind of effort to help them.

please let the steelers get there to the sb, they may be the only team in the AFC that can stop them.

Means nothing without a SB. So far just a good regular season.

Re: Panthers are 13-0
 
I think they'll do it. Unless Cam goes down I don't think there is a team that can beat them. Defensively, I think we all saw they were going to be good, but the truth is Newton has matured as a QB and the system they run is not being stopped.

On the bright side, at least the NFCS will get some love for once.

IMO both the Giants & Bucs are capable of beating the kittens

Good for them. Still not going to win the Super Bowl.

I think Arizona matches up well with them. Arizona has been my NFC sleeper to go to SB all season.

They have a good defense, but their offense is smoke and mirrors. They played a Falcons team today that quit weeks ago. If Eli doesn't have one of his patented 5 interception games next week, I think the Panties will lose that game. Not because the Giants are good (they're not) but because the Panthers have been due all season to run out of luck, and with the Giants being at home and having a lot on the line, I think it might be one of those games where they show up and surprise everyone. Kind of like they do against the Patriots, a lot.

As far as how far they can go in the Playoffs, they just better hope they don't play Arizona or even Seattle, who's defense has looked a little better. Because those teams have defenses that aren't dumb enough to get sucked in to that college-type offense the Panthers like to run with Cam. They'll know to stay home and make him beat their secondary, which he won't do. He's not a very good passer, but he gets a lot of long plays down field because people overreact to his running ability, and blitz too much. If you don't immediately get to him he's going to run it right up the gut or throw it to a wide open receiver down the field. Keeping him contained in the pocket and not committing safeties to the box is the best way to stop that offense.

The Cardinals and Seahawks have the personnel to do that.

pittsburgh has a offense built to play against tough teams. And there is someone named DWill, who Carolina wrote off. if they don't get in and jets do then we might have offenseless Denver in it. I don't know what to make of NE.

Re: Panthers are 13-0
 
Out of the 3 remaining games I think its only the Giants that could stop the Panthers!

A 16-0 season is nice to have for your ball team but IMO I think its best to rest some of the starters so they are fresh and fully fit for the playoffs.

When all said and done, what really matters is getting that lovely big silver trophy back to your clubhouse and exercising you fingers to able to carry the weight of a sparkling, diamond encrusted superbowl ring!!!

GEAUX SAINTS!!

I was thinking the Failclowns or the Bucs'll get 'em, intraconference rivalry stuff ... the Failclowns in a "any given Sunday" scenario and I honestly flat out think the Bucs can hang with them, :neutral:.

Either way, I don't want see any team take that title away from the '72 Dolphins, :( .

Go giants.

If they make it i hope they get booted right out of the gate

Re: Panthers are 13-0
 
I remember back when we were 13-0, I actually talked to some old time Dolphins fans I knew, asking them about that undefeated season back in '72.

And these guys kinda said, hey, it actually wasn't wall-to-wall excitement. A lot of those Dolphins games were sorta boring, uneventful dull games, kind of a slog, but they just kept winning. And this Carolina team very much reminds me of that. They are getting all the breaks to go their way, all the calls, all the luck. And once that happens, the refs and the league start laying out the red carpet for them each week, and it gets harder and harder for anybody to beat them.

But a lot of these Panthers games seem sort of like boring, dull contests, and then they win a lot of them in large part because of things like multiple gift-wrapped Tony Romo interceptions, or penalties that are not called, or reviews that don't get overturned, etc. etc. Don't underestimate the importance of the Cam thing, with him complaining about the refs from the podium earlier in the year. I gotta hand it to him, breaking that code and whining about it, was was really smart politicking on Cam's part. Now they are handling him and the Panthers with kid gloves all year, because they are truly scared of being accused of something by him. Those types of calls and no-calls will follow them all the way to the Super Bowl, you can pretty much bank on it.

Re: Panthers are 13-0
 
We would have knocked the Panthers win streak

We scored how many points on that vaulted defense (9 were our defense and special teams)?

If not for Browner
A totally incompetant and always out of the play Jarus Byrd
(Who didn't even double over the top time and time again when linebackers were covering the only deep panther receiver) and that ahem trapped "catch" by greg olsen with 2:37 left (granted we couldn't stop them or score ourselves)

Seattle (as the lowest wild card) or the Cardinals (out for last season playoff revenge will beat them)
Both teams are capable of making Cam look oh so ordinary


Here is the over zealous Panther fans comments

As much as it pains me to say this, I believe the Panthers will win the Super Bowl this year and we will get stuck watching Cam doing Disney commercials.

Re: Panthers are 13-0
 
Despise Scam. He's a straight up punk. But, he's playing great football. As is the rest of the Panthers. Solid, fundamental, team football. The Seahawks will smoke them though.

Beastmode 12-14-2015 09:02 AM

Re: Panthers are 13-0
 
Cam, by far his best season. Passer rating up 15%, hardly any picks. Just an overall good team. Also limited injuries. They will likely be the most rested team in the playoffs. Going to be hard to stop.

vpheughan 12-14-2015 10:41 AM

Re: Panthers are 13-0
 
Some of the comments remind me of listening to the Falcons Homer Radio Announcers (for 9 horrible years) "You know Bill, if he would have made that catch and broke 9 tackles while running 80 yards he would have scored!" EVERY PLAY!!

It's also obvious the NFL is "Rigged" "Gift wrapped interceptions and of course The Cam Thing"

And since it's rigged here's a sneak peak of the Super Bowl Headline: Undefeated Carolina Upset by Pat's!" Oh the Irony of it!!!!! Belichick, Brady and Kraft all paid back by the NFL!!! Think about it!

Re: Panthers are 13-0
 
They have the 2 things needed to go deep in the playoffs. A great defense and a running game. They are where they are because Stewart has been healthy. This opens up so much for a mediocre passer like Cam. I can't see them losing a regular season game but I can see them getting beat by Arizona or Seattle in the playoffs.

Just to play devils advocate, they already beat Seattle, in Seattle this season.

Seattle was a much different team then. They were struggling more on the o-line, defense didn't have it together yet. They are night and day better now.

True but if they play again, it will probably be in Carolina. I'd take the home team. There D may be improved a smidge but its there Offense doing the heavy lifting. Hell, Pittsburgh put up 540 yards on them at Seattle but lost because Seattle's offense made more plays that put points on the board.

There defense doesn't scare teams as much as years past. People are now in fear of there offense which has seemed to find a groove. But with out having to worry about a running game, now that Rawls is out, lets see how good they end up being.

Re: Panthers are 13-0
 
It'll be interesting to see how this unfolds with Carolina. I still think AZ is the much more balanced team & will end up representing the NFC in the Super Bowl.

When I mentioned Seattle I said that they are looking better on defense. We all know how bad they were early in the year. Yes the 'hawks are playing better on offense, as well (after Graham went out, which is food for thought) but when you look at what they've done the last two weeks, they seem to have figured something out defensively. I can't stand that team, but I'm just looking at things for what they are. Seattle is playing better than Carolina, all the way around right now. But Arizona is a team I definitely don't see Carolina getting past.

You were not sitting in the Dome A week ago.
Newton threw passes that were not in the same ZIP Code with some of his receivers. He is not an NFL quarterback. If he is, then Tim Tebow is Also.
He is a college option QB. When it truly comes down to him, he's going to find out he's not playing Vanderbilt. It's not a home coming. "This is the NFL."
Which stands for not for long, when you run around like that.
It was so beautiful watching Mike Mauti clock his head.
Just like Steve Young, he's going to run one time too many.
He's a glorified runner, not a quarterback. And when you stop his running,
You will stop the Panthers cold. Don't sweat this. They are not going anywhere.

The Cardinals ticket will ride on whether Palmer stays healthy just like when they had Warner.
Seattle is getting hot at the right time and Carolina can be beat.
Hey a lowly underachieving team like us almost ruined their thunder.

Mardigras9 12-15-2015 08:15 AM

Re: Panthers are 13-0
 
I want them to go 16-0 now at this point. That will make 0-1 in the playoffs that much sweeter.
