(percentage of fans who voted ‘confident’)
Regular season Week 9 — 33%
Regular season Week 10 — 51%
Regular season Week 11 — 47%
Regular season Week 12 — 5%
Regular season Week 13 — 8%
This week’s survey shows a slight bump from 5 percent to 8 percent which is probably due to the Panthers almost pulling off the road upset, but the near-win wasn’t good enough to get fans’ confidence back.
