Hey everyone,
I'm pretty pumped for the season after the draft. I was a tad underwhelmed but I think we have a solid group of guys, and listening to the press conferences only got me further amped.
For the 2023 season, the Panthers play 8 games at home, and 9 games away.
The Panthers Opponents:
- Falcons: While I want to say the Panthers could go 2-0 against the Falcons, I realistically think they'll split games and thus go 1-1.
- Saints: I think we'll sweep the Saints as the offense has presumably gotten better, and the pairing of Derek Carr/Derek Allen does not worry me as they have previously worked together and were terrible.
- Buccaneers: I think Panthers win 2-0 against the Bucs as the Bucs look like they are falling apart.
- Packers: Panthers win, closer game than expected. Not sure about Jordan Love but have Packers friends who aren't fond of him.
- Vikings: Panthers lose, offensive game but Justin Jefferson continues to be a difference maker.
- Texans: Panthers win, closer game than expected due to Will Anderson and Derek Stingley.
- Colts: Panthers win, RPO offense doesn't fool defense. Added energy from Frank Reich to beat his previous team.
- Cowboys: Panthers lose, Cowboys defense overwhelms Panthers between the rush and secondary.
- Chicago: Panthers win, DJ turns up since being traded, but Fields is limited in running the ball.
- Lions: Panthers lose, close game but Jared Goff has a better game than he did last year.
- Jaguars: Panthers win, close game but new play makers on offense show up big time.
- Titans: Panthers win, defense is able to limit Henry and cause turnovers on whichever QB is playing.
- Seahawks: Panthers lose, Geno plays much better than he did last year and JSN shows why he was the first WR taken in the draft.
- Dolphins: Panthers lose, added defense and stacked offense makes this a struggle to see a win.
Overall predicted record: 11 - 6
Sure, this might seem overly biased but most of these teams are raw or going through major changes. I think Reich and Bryce will be a calm, cool-headed duo to lead to winning.
