I think it’s safe to say at this point that the 2015 Carolina Panthers are clearly the best team in the history of the NFL.

There’s only ever been one undefeated team – the 1972 Miami Dolphins (17-0) – but that was almost 45 years ago, back when teams could easily stack their rosters year after year – teams were way more unbalanced back then.

It’s an entirely different league today. The NFL is now designed to be balanced, so a season like the Panthers are having is a truly unique phenomena.

Here are the top 10 reasons why no one can deny that this year’s Panthers are the best of all time;

#1 Cam Newton

Cam is about to be the first person ever to win the Heisman, National College Championship, NFL MVP, and Superbowl – he’s now being ranked as the greatest quarterback of all time.

In just 5 short years, he’s already surpassed the stats of many of the greats – throwing for an impressive 18,263 yards, 117 TDs, 64 INTs, 88.2 rating, 60% completion percentage, 3,207 rushing yards, and 43 rushing touchdowns (tying Steve Young for the most career rushing touchdowns ever by a quarterback).

Newton is 6’5″ and weighs about 245 pounds. Bruce Smith, one of the best pass-rushers of all time, played at 6’4″ and 265 pounds. So Newton is almost the same size as a Hall of Fame defensive end. Steve Young, by comparison, is 6’2″ and weighed 215 pounds when he played.

Young ran a 4.53 40-yard dash. Newton ran a 4.59 despite weighing some 30 pounds more.

There’s never been a quarterback as big, fast and powerful as Newton. None have even come close.

“He’s probably the most dangerous quarterback in the NFL” Broncos cornerback recently commented to reporters.

#2 Tie For The Most Single-Season Wins in History

We’ve already had our best regular season in franchise history, we’re now the 7th team to win at least 15 regular season games since the NFL expanded to a 16 game schedule in 1978.

If and when the Panthers beat the Broncos in Super Bowl 50, they’ll tie the 1984 49ers (15-1 regular season, 3-0 post season), 1985 Bears (15-1 regular season, 3-0 post season), and 2007 Patriots (16-0 regular season, 2-1 post season) with 18 wins in a single season.

Again, in the history of the NFL, only 3 teams have ever done this – the Panthers are about to be the 4th.

#3 First Team Ever To Start 10-0 After A Losing Season

Last year, the Panthers finished their season with a overall losing record of 7-8-1, this year, we started our season with a 10-0 record – no team in NFL history has ever done that good after a losing season.

Also, we’re the first team in NFL history to start 11-0 after a losing season, oh, and 12-0, and 13-0…..and 14-0 (now officially the best start to a season by an NFC team in NFL history).

#4 Greg Olsen, Josh Norman, and Ted Ginn Jr.

Greg Olsen, a two-time Pro Bowler, is by far one of the most underrated tight ends ever (not surprising, considering how under-rated all the Panthers are). He finished the 2015 NFL season with top ranking stats – he was second in total receiving yards among tight ends (1,104), fourth in receptions (77) and sixth in touchdowns (7) on the team that ran the ball more than anyone else.

Josh Norman has already racked up 4 interceptions, 110 yards, and 2 touchdowns so far this season (higher stats than most offensive receivers in the league this year). The 28-year-old cornerback is constantly being compared to many of the top defenders in the entire league. Josh, along with Robert McClain, Roman Harper, and Kurt Coleman helped the Panthers lead the NFL in interceptions with a total of 24.

Ted Ginn Jr. is the Panther’s ultimate swiss army knife – catching passes, running reverses, returning punts, and chasing down the occasional interception, he can truly do it all. Ginn caught 44 passes for 739 yards and a career-high 10 touchdowns in the regular season.

#5-9 Luke Kuechly

Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis are the heart and soul of the defense and are easily the best pair of linebackers in the league.

Kuechly, was the ninth pick in the 2012 draft, and quickly became a true Panther sensation. The Boston College star led the NFL in tackles (164, 103 solo) as a rookie and was named AP Defensive Rookie of the Year. A year later, he won AP Defensive Player of the Year. He has been All-Pro three years running.

He’s now a true defensive pillar on par with Cam Newton on the defensive side of the ball. Kueckly is only 24 years old, and yet he already calls out defensive signals like a veteran – he also led the Panthers this season with 118 tackles. He returned an interception for a touchdown in both Panthers playoff victories, and he’ll certainly be one of the best players on the field for Super Bowl 50.

#10 We’re About To Achieve An All-Time Winning Record

The Carolina Panthers currently have 175 wins, 175 losses, and 1 tie since they joined the NFL in 1995.

When they win the Superbowl this year, they will have 176 wins – the last time they had an all-time winning record was back in the 1998 season.

Fun fact: this will be their record when they win Super Bowl 50;

With all the history of gold rushes in America from Charlotte, to San Francisco, to Denver, with the fact that Super Bowl 50 taking place during the Jewish 50th year of Jubilee, and with all the prophecies about Charlotte winning the Super Bowl – how could we not win?

Facts:

– Carolina Gold Rush started in 1799 (Reed’s Gold Mine just East of downtown Charlotte)
– California Gold Rush started in 1849 (50 years later just north east of San Francisco)
– Denver Gold Rush started in 1859 (10 years later in Pike’s Peak, just south of Downtown Denver)

– In 1849 a wave a miners moved from Charlotte to the San Francisco region to find gold.
– In 1998 a wave of bankers moved from San Francisco to Charlotte when Nations Bank bought Bank of America
– In 2008 a wave of bankers moved from Charlotte to San Francisco when Wells Fargo bought Wachovia

– It is currently the Jewish year 5776 (September 14th, 2015 – October 4th, 2016) – the Jewish calendar has a 49 year cycle (7 7s), the first year of every new cycle – or the 50th year, they celebrate a ‘year of jubilee‘ – the year 5776 is one of those years – and Super Bowl 50 is happening directly in the middle of it!

– Bob Jones heard from God in the early 1990s that when the Panthers win the Super Bowl, a great revival is coming (listen to the message here).

Do you think the Panthers will win?

The Panthers just beat the Seahawks and Cardinals to advance to the biggest game in America – Superbowl 50 – the second time in history the Panthers made to the ship.

The big game will be played in Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California (about an hour south of San Francisco) on February 7th. Tickets for the game are now priced from $3,000 (zone P) to $18,000 (50 yard line) on TicketNetwork.com – one of the biggest ticket re-sellers in the world.

Many of the tickets now being resold are coming from the Boston area, since about 14% of all the Superbowl 50 tickets were purchased in anticipation of the Patriots beating the Broncos yesterday.

Ticket analysts are predicting that this year’s prices will continue to rise, and are expected to reach well over $6,000 for the lowest priced seats over the next few days. Silicon Valley’s money is thought to be one of the biggest factors in driving up prices this year.
