I will be there. Big ups to Maw Maw Igo for having Thanksgiving on that Friday so that I can fly in to Dallas for the day.

He earned that right, imo.

Today the Panthers take on the Tennessee Titans in their last AFC matchup of the regular season. Where: Nissan Stadium, Nashville TN Time: 1:00 Twitter: Follow @CarolinaHuddle on Twitter for pregame and post game updates from the field and locker room. Keys to Panthers Victory - Pressure Mariota. Mariota was not sacked at all against the Saints last week. That cannot happen this week. Kony Ealy must continue to improve. - Disciplined Defense. The Titans do not match up well against the Panthers defense. Their only hope is to bait the Panthers with misdirection and hope they bite. The Panthers linebackers need to stay with their gaps and not fall for it. - Wide Receivers must build on a solid performance a week ago. They played well as a group last week, that needs to continue and not be a one week aberration. Many Panthers fans are overlooking this game, but they should not. The Titans have new found energy and confidence since their coaching change. They absolutely could knock the Panthers off the undefeated list today. View full article

lol @ the clan hood....

After Sunday's victory over the Green Bay Packers, Kawann Short was asked by the media if this Carolina Panthers 8-0 start was a surprise. "This is what we expected from day one" Short replied with an unwavering confidence. Short's emergence as a premier under tackle, and even occasional defensive end, is a huge reason why the Panthers are currently undefeated. For example, it was Short's pressure from the defensive end position that forced an intentional grounding call against the Houston Texans earlier this year. Without that penalty, the Panthers could easily have one loss. Kawann's latest game winning play was a pressure up the middle on Aaron Rodgers, who was forced to hurry throw the ball. That pass ended up in the hands of Thomas Davis. Without Short, that interception would not have happened. A Panthers victory would have remained in doubt. Short's play resembles that of Warren Sapp. Relentlessly aggressive with a quickness that no man his size should possess. Short has 6 sacks this season, tied with Cincinnati's All-Pro defensive tackle Geno Atkins. Together, hey lead all defensive tackles in sacks.... and most defensive ends. Thats right, big named DE's and OLB's like Bruce Irvin and Julius Peppers have fewer sacks than Kawann Short. Short has 3 more tackles, and 5 more assisted tackles than Atkins currently. I would say that is at least a Pro Bowl performance in the first half of this season, if not All Pro. Will we continue to see Short dominate the line of scrimmage and contribute to an undefeated record? Could be. Short does not plan on sitting on his laurels anytime soon. "We still have to stay humble, disciplined, and come out ready to work." View full article

Every week I bring to you a sampling of what fans of the opposing team are saying. This week, Tennessee Titans Fans, courtesy of their independent fan site TitansReport.com (minus the Browns, Dolphins, Texans, Falcons, Colts, Bills... all losses this year) This will be a popular sentiment among fans and teams alike. Knocking off an undefeated team is bragging rights material. The Panthers are currently 8-0 with a giant target on their backs. Proof that all fan bases have pretty dumb individuals pulling for them. Apparently some fans are already giving up... in early November. I remember those days. It stinks. I'm looking at you Jimmy Clausen. Pretty realistic. Overall, Titans fans are fairly realistic about their chances on Sunday. Sure, there are some that are supremely confident about a 2-6 team facing an 8-0 team, but that is part of being a fan.

Yeah, not a great pic of it though. Can really only see the ball from defensive lineman in the way.

Each week I bring to you the best photos my lens captures from the along the sidelines of the Panthers game. This week features the emergence of Devin Funchess, Shaq Thompson's return, KK Short dominance, and much much more. Without further ado...

The Carolina Panthers face their toughest opponent yet this season today. As such, they have an opportunity to earn real respect across the country as a legitimate superbowl contender. Who: Green Bay Packers at Carolina Panthers When: 1:00 TV: FOX Twitter: Follow @CarolinaHuddle on Twitter for pregame tweets and pics from the field. Keys to the Game - Long, time consuming drives on offense. The best way to limit Aaron Rogers is to keep him off the field. The offense must keep moving the chains on 3rd downs. - Kick and punt coverage need to improve. Giving the Packers a short field like the Panthers did against Indianapolis could lose them the game. - Front four pressure. The Panthers defensive line need to be able to pressure Rogers without help. If the front 4 of Carolina can get adequate pressure today, the game is theirs. View full article

Updated OP

Truth be known, I actually like Packers fans. Typically they are some of the most pleasent and some of the more knowledgeable fans in the NFL. My trip to Green Bay last year left me with the most favorable impression of a franchise and their fan base of all away games (Philly being the opposite end of that spectrum). That said, they are next up on the Panthers revenge tour of 2015. Here is what the Packers fans are saying (Above quote is from a guy named "packerfanincarolina".) and from the Packer Chatters forum.... Sunday is going to be a tough game. If Ryan Kalil and Andrew Norwell can't play, the edge may go to the Packers. The Panthers will need to be able to constantly move the chains on offense and keep the defense rested. If not, you may see another 4th quarter letup from exhaustion by the defense again this week. View full article

Welp, if the Panthers lose tonight you can thank Monsta for messing up the order of things round here.

Each week I provide for you a few highlights of what opposing fans are saying. This week, the Colts, from their official message board.. Colts fans worried about the rain in Charlotte... On how to beat the Carolina Panthers Overall, the Colts fans seem like a pleasant, knowledgeable bunch that is hard not to like. Will be a nice change of pace from hosting Philly fans a week ago.

Didn't see it. Sorry. Merged them.

Important Panthers implications. Go Bucs.

If they destroy the Cowboys, it will quickly become one of your all time favorite uniforms. lol

In a good catch by Huddle Catman72 , last night's Thursday Night Football game gave us a quick peak into a new uniform color scheme the Panthers will be wearing on Thanksgiving Day against the Dallas Cowboys. The video, posted here in this thread , showed what clearly seems to be blue pants with grey and black accent design. What might that look like? Well, here is my 30 second photoshop attempt.... Not bad... Not bad at all. Update: During Thursday night football a couple of the Color Rush jerseys were reveled. Looked like the above image may not be far off at all. Might need to replace the black socks with blue ones however. View full article

None in the end zone on long plays like that. They would have had a worse view.
