I wanted to go ahead and let my NFL Picks mates of the last 5 or however many years we've done it know that the year has finally come for the Panthers to take home the crown.
This roster is loaded, top to bottom. The league is so sleep on us it is insane, but trust me. I've dreamed this. Cam Newton is going to be an MVP candidate. Expect a Kawhi Leonard like season for him. He's slimmed down, his arm has looked great in camp after surgery. D.J. Moore and Curtis Samuel, two of the youngest and best receivers in the game. The offensive line looks amazing. LG is a potential weakness but that's it. Greg Olsen and Ian Thomas, if Olsen can stay healthy, is a nice TE duo too.
And that defense? Come on now. Short, Poe, McCoy. Kuechly, Thompson, Burns, Irvin. Reid and Boston at safety. Bradberry and Jackson are a good CB duo too.
AND RIVERBOAT RON AT HEAD COACH?
Name me a better team
We are going to beat the Rams in Week 1 and people are going to be shocked but me?
