Everyone talking about the Carolina Panthers hosting with an 8-9 record...

49ers have a better record than their host... the Eagles

Texans have a better record than their host... the Steelers

Our defense probably would've held us close for a bit...

But if we didn't have Olave, Vele, Kamara, Neal, or several others... we wouldn't have had much of a chance either

Should be pulling for the Panthers to win in which case they will most certainly extend Young a be saddled with him when he returns to his normal self?

I kinda am torn on this.

I like it. They’ll get knocked out next week if they win now

Just winning the division screwed the Panthers out of at least 2 draft spots... maybe more

With an 8-9 record they should be drafting between 13 and 16

But since they're in the playoffs... the lowest they can draft at (barring a trade) is 18

What a tragic end to the 1st half by the Rams

Turn it over on downs in FG range just after the 2:00 warning

Then allow the Panthers to go right down the field & get a TD right before the half

Then have a chance to get something back on a big play before the quarter ends... only for Nacua to drop a pass that was right in his hands when he was wide open

And then the quickest 3 & out in history to start the 2nd half too

100% love Banks. But man it would have been nice to have Tet McMillian at WR.

And yes I’m aware Tet went before our pick.

LT>WR

I think Vele has a chance to be as impactful as Tet

At 17-7 with the Rams driving... it looked like the game was about to get out of hand

But since the 4th down stop... the Panthers have gotten it tied back up

It's a game now guys
