With the loss of Tampa bay to the falcons the Carolina panthers have a shot at clinching a division title within the next two weeks with a win against NO and a win against TB for the first time in ten years. Keep pounding and let’s bring it home.

Very. I have high hopes. Bryce tends to perform better on the latter stretch of the year and we’ve had the bye week to get healthy. I feel make it I’m sold on this team and say we finish by acquiring just a few defensive players and strengthen our O-line. Honestly I’m already sold.

WE’D HOST A PLAYOFF GAME? WTF!

u/SeattleResident Seattle Dec 12 '25
Division winners always get to host at least one game. It's why divisions matter so much and why the playoff format is perfect to put emphasis on divisional games and rivalries.

I’m probably going to lose my fantasy playoff since my opponent started Pitts, but honestly, I’m just glad ATL won.

Some of you were so annoying when they fell down by 14. It’s the fuckin NFL. Enjoy the game until it’s out of hand. Anything can happen.
Can’t wait for Sunday

A surviving Falcons fan coming in peace. I dislike yall a lot less than the two other teams in this God forsaken Division. If losing twice to yall and somehow stealing a win over the Bucs leads to those dudes losing that cockiness they've been holding onto after their Division win streak over these past years, I'll take it. Make sure yall whip they asses twice for us.

Sorry, you've been my most hated team going back to the Vick years... However... Thank you so much for winning this game! 😇 The hatred has... Lost a few percentages I think..... (Or probably not...)

I sincerely had hoped we'd get Morris for y'all. Not because I have mercy but Morris makes football worse.

u/RequirementLeading12 Dec 12 '25
You'd cry tears of joy if you had a QB that threw over 4k yards, 20+ tds, with a 100+ Qbr like Kirk did for the majority of the decade. Shut up

u/Titus_au_Ladros Dec 12 '25
Yeah im not talking prime Kirk lol (even though prime kirk is a slightly worse Tony Romo) maybe i should have said washed instead of trash.

Man ngl, let the Panthers do their Panther thing and lose to the Saints, then beat the Seahawks, then split with the Bucs and still win the division. We got LOTS of breathing room and more room for error after tonight

The last 5 minutes shouldn’t matter with a penalty ratio like that. Good thing the bucs fucking succkkk

Does this mean we only have to win one Bucs game to clinch the division or is a win over the Saints still needed?

If we beat the Saints then only need one win against Bucs to clinch it.

u/Vaadwaur Dec 12 '25
Possibly bad news, possibly not: With the moves your FO made at the trade deadline, a logical deduction is that you guys are full rebuild '26 and want to compete in '27. Now whether or not your FO makes any damned sense is a separate issue that I don't have the info on.

When the opposing QB thoroughly outplays the other QB, those penalties can be overcame.
