7-6... Are We FRAUDS or Contenders? + T-Mac vs. Legette & Draft Needs (Panthers Mailbag)
Description
The Carolina Panthers are 7-6. They just beat the Rams. They are one game behind Tampa Bay for the NFC South lead. So why does it still feel like we are waiting for the other shoe to drop?
In this week's Panthers Mailbag, we are skipping the contract talk and the owner drama to focus strictly on the football. We break down the confusing "Identity" of this team, debate whether the playoffs are actually realistic, and have a difficult conversation about the Wide Receiver room.
In this episode:
The "Imposter Syndrome" Check: We are over .500 in December for the first time in years. Are we actually a "good" team, or are we just the Kings of Trash Mountain?
Rookie Report Card: Grading Dan Morgan's 2025 Class. We know Tetairoa McMillan is a star, but what about the rest?
WR1 Controversy: T-Mac has arrived, but Xavier Legette has vanished. Is there room for both in this offense?
The 2026 Draft Dilemma: If we make the playoffs, we lose our top 10 pick. Do we trade up for a Pass Rusher or fix the Secondary?
Identity Crisis: 13 weeks in... can ANYONE explain what Panthers football is supposed to look like?
