The old Evero Special. If he pulls it again this year, let Hansen call the plays

From his annual Predicting All 272 Games article.

Nails on a chalkboard and always paired with Jonathan Vilma and always gets our games

It seems like most of the discussion amongst analysts is that this is a make or break year for Bryce Young (obviously) and that if he has a good year, we will have to pay him the going rate for quarterbacks. (Basically a franchise deal)

Let’s say Bryce improves, we have a winning record, but we don’t make the playoffs. He’s not a star but he’s more consistent and it’s clear that, while he’s not our whole offense, he has enough of a grasp of it and runs it well enough that Dave, Dan, and co want to keep him till we develop a better option. What happens then? Does Bryce not take a lesser deal because he theoretically could start elsewhere? Are teams that desperate to take a quarterback that (in this scenario) has only proven to be pretty good, mid tier, at best?

Please note, I don’t want Bryce opinions, I want to know why his contract is all or nothing. Keep the hate or love to yourselves.

Aye we better show up to this first home game now. Imma be pissed if I see a bunch of Chicago jerseys in the stadium. Im tryna hear it shake in there I want my ears to be ringing after the game. So I hope the fan base shows up.

QB Index rankings: 2025

Ranked 29th out of 37th....Bryce Young

Every year I draft a ton of Panthers players in the only fantasy league I play in just to see how far I can get. Last year was my most egregious, having fielded my entire team with Panthers and not doing too bad!

But we're here to discuss names, and I want to hear 'em! Mine is always Panthers related. Last year, it was "The Bryce is Right". This year, with Bryce obviously being my QB1, Tmac and Coker being the cornerstones, I've named my team this year:

Big Mac with Bryce and a Coke

I can’t think of a way around it

I just saw ESPN’s latest power rankings, and they have us finishing last in the NFC South. Needless to say, I’m not thrilled. Am I crazy for thinking the Panthers could win the division and possibly even a playoff game?

We are coming from out of town to take in the Panthers opener. We are committed to doing our own tailgate with grills and the works! Is there a lot people would recommend? Ideally, we would start early — a 6 or 7am start time is not out of the question. I was scoping out some lots down in the area circled in red. I hope to lock down a spot before we get there, but I’ll take any suggestions. I appreciate any tips.

Especially against the bears. I really hope the starters aren’t rusty

Hi. I'll be attending the Carolina Panthers v Denver Broncos game at the Bank of America Stadium on November 8. This is my first NFL game, and coming from Europe on an NC trip I honestly don't know that much about American Football and stadium culture. I see that my ticket is already valid from 1pm, but the match only starts at 8pm I think. I'm quite familiar with how things work in Europe, having worked stadium security at soccer matches, but just looking at the opening times I can already tell things are different. Is there any value in arriving earlier (I read online that the tailgate scene can be pretty big at certain stadiums, but again, as an outsider, I'm not entirely sure what that entails) or is it for the best to just get there an hour before the start of the match? I was advised by a friend from Raleigh to eat at Bojangles in the Stadium, so I'll be doing that at the very least.

Thanks in advance for your replies!

EDIT: Apparently 1pm is kickoff, and the 8pm comes from the sites I looked at automatically adjusting for my timezone and throwing me for a loop. Thats very good to know

These aren't debuting until 2028 but Nike has apparently already finalized the design

Not an official depth chart, but here’s a look at the updated 53 and practice squad in a compact, easy to follow format!

Are there any depth orderings/listings worth shifting on this sheet?
