Oh no you did NOT just say that in reference to the Pats, who seems to be the most underestimated team in history. 😛

Perhaps, but they've had a lot of hype after the 1/2 way mark.

The Panthers were picked to finishe last in their division and picked to lose each of their playoff games.

And in that sense, they remind me a bit of the 2001 Pats, which obviously has me mildly worried.
But I still can't see the Pats losing, in part because they haven't in so long.

Give it time and we'll be saying the same thing about the Panthers IMO 🙂
 
I have to believe the Panthers can win. I'm a season ticket holder and am loving life right now. This team amazes me and I am going to enjoy every bit of the next two weeks.
 
Go Panthers!!!!! WOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!! Go cry in a beer you Philly fans!!!! 😀😀😀😀😀😀

Who the fvck wants to see the freakin Panthers in the SB?

Who the fvck cares what you think ASS?

Certainly not the fans. This SB is going to suck ass. The Panthers? COMEON!!! Who the fvck wants to see the freakin Panthers in the SB?

Well, who the hell wanted to see the Patriots a couple years ago? In the end however, that turned into a very good game. Maybe you shouldn't b!tch about how bad the game is going to be until it's actually been played. I know it's a crazy idea.

Anyway, Panthers by a field goal.
 
Patriots will be a pretty solid favorite, but I'll be pulling for the Panthers (although I really could care less about either of these teams.) It may end up being a great game, but it's not going to be able to generate anywhere near the lead-in excitement in the weeks leading up to it like matchups the last few years have done.

That is the medias fault. They have never given the Panthers the time of day up until now. Its always been about Mcnabb, Favre before that, the Patriots winning streak, Mannings awesome playoff performance (up until today).

Well I can tell you who won't be taking them for granted, Belicheck(sp) The Pats will be well prepared for the Panthers as will the Panthers be prepared for the Pats.

I'll pick the Pats by 14 because I think the Pats Receivers are tough enough to negate the Panthers D backs agressive style and the Pat's Secondary will rough up the Panthers receivers like they did the Colts
