It might be a preposterous to even consider this topic when the best way to describe the most recent season of Carolina Panthers football involves the words “dumpster fire”. In fact, I’m sure there were some of you who read that and did your best pseudo-Jim Mora impression at your screen - “Championship??? I just hope we can win a few games!”
I hear you, I even agree with you. That said, winning a championship is the goal and there’s no reason to aim for anything. It can’t hurt take stock and see just how steep a climb is ahead for the team before there’s hope to have any kind of post-season relevance again.
