Prior to the season, I identified seven key statistic results the Panthers should shoot for by season's end. Stats that if the Panthers were able to eclipse, should see the Panthers in the playoffs. Pictured here, you can see that Cam is wondering how these seven stats correlate to the Panthers' 8-0 start.
First, I wrote the original goal. Next, my thoughts/analysis from my original post. Finally, how close are the Panthers to these goals.
1. Season goal: Run the ball at least 500 times.
Over the past five seasons, 19 teams recorded 500 or more rushing plays in a season.
