Tonight the Panthers look for a win against the Pittsburgh to help solidify their status as the class of the NFC South.

 

 

Who: Pittsburgh Steelers at Carolina Panthers

 

When: 8:30pm

 

TV: NBC - NBC Charlotte will be airing LIVE from the Huddle Tailgate starting at 6:00pm. They will have three live spots within the hour.

 

Radio: 1110 WBT

 

Twitter: Follow @CarolinaHuddle on twitter for observations

 

All-Pro: Additional pregame coverage in the All-Pro Insider forum. Early photos/observations/behind the scenes action.

 

 

 

Panthers' Keys to Victory:

 

- Contain Le'Veon Bell. Bell is the most potent offensive weapon of Pittsburgh.

- Continue to Spread the Ball: Cam Newton has done an excellent job of getting the ball to a variety of receivers. This must continue tonight.

- Quick Start. There will be plenty of Steelers fans in attendance. A few quick scores will quiet them and eventually send them back to their trailers early.

Couple thoughts of concern for tonight...

Panthers DBs vs quick WRs. I think we are better suited to matchup against big WRs. This will be a test tonight.

Impact of Hardy. Last week we did not get to see the real impact he has out of the line up. We will this week.

Cam locking on early and starring down short routes to WRs. Troy P often doesn't even play S but instead just spy's the QBs eyes and guesses.....worry about a defender like Troy playing up and jumping those pass lanes

all eyes will be on charlotte tonight.  i think our guys make another statement.  they are still pissed off for being dismissed this off-season.  

 

 

and i hate waiting for night games to get here.

Sadly I think all the talk will be about Greg Hardy. You know NBC isn't just gonna sweep that under the rug.

 

 

I don't really care as long as we get the Win.

 

 

Go Panthers!

Latest Injury Report

Carolina Panthers:

Jason Avant (WR) - Thigh - Questionable

Byron Bell (OT) - Toe - Probable

Kelvin Benjamin (WR) - Knee - Probable

Philly Brown (WR) - Ankle - Probable

Nate Chandler (OL) - Toe - Probably

Colin Cole (DT) - Non-Injury - Probable

Jericho Cotchery (WR) - Thigh - Questionable

Thomas Davis (LB) - Hip - Probable

Dwan Edwards (DT) - Back - Probable

Greg Olsen (TE) - Calf - Probable

Mike Tolbert (FB) - Chest - Probable

Fozzy Whittaker (RB) - Thigh - Doubtful

Garry Williams (OT) - Hip - Probable

DeAngelo Williams (RB) - Thigh - Questionable

The list leaves the Panthers a bit depleted at the wideout and running back positions, but most are expected to play.  With Deangelo Williams and Jason Avant both getting limited practice in on Friday, it appears both should be able to play tonight.  Cotchery has been out all week with a thigh injury and did not practice on Friday.  

 

Carolina has brought up Darrin Reaves from the practice squad to add depth in Fozzy's absence.  If Jason and/or Jericho can't go, be prepared to have some Brenton and Philly sightings in tonight's game.

 

 

Pittsburgh Steelers:

Dri Archer (WR/RB) - Ankle - Doubtful

Martavis Bryant (WR) - Shoulder - Probable

Ramon Foster (OG) - Ankle - Questionable

Brett Keisel (DE) - Non-Injury - Probable

Steve McLendon (NT) - Shoulder - Probable

Heath Miller (TE) Non-Injury - Probable

Lance Moore (WR) - Groin - Probable

Troy Polamalu (S) Non-Injury - Probable

 

Nothing too damaging here for the Steelers.  Most on this list are expected to play.

Not one bit worried about RB. We basically have too much depth. So this is just us finally being able to use it.

Crotchety is the big one IMO. He has stepped up for those 89 like 3rd down grabs

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      his height, size and arm will forever cause problems and limitations...that is what it is.  I think to a degree, the law of averages is just coming into play a bit with him.  So as he plays more and more, you just flat out get the decent days mixed in too.  Which is just going to happen.

      Crazy stat

      Good point. He's definitely better in 10-15 yards. I think that's his biggest improvement. But he wasn't 3-10 +15, he was 3-7, with at least one drop (minor but still). And with multiple passes at 14 yards completed. This passing chart doesn't look like at By one, lol. He threw more "deep" passes than Mahomes (NOT comparing him to Mahomes in a skill way lol), or at least more beyind 10 yards.

      Karlaftis and Danna have been pretty inconsistent so teams have been doubling Jones and able to contain their pass rush.   But the good thing is that yesterday, we schemed well against Steve Spags Defense, Canales married the surrounding personnel with his QB through play designs within his comfort zone and was able to get downfield at will.  He was able to execute higher difficulty throws and look a lot more comfortable.  It tells me that Canales has a good system in mind, and had an edge gameplanning wise against Spagnuolo - which is nice to see.  It's a bit to see-saw at times with either going way too pass heavy or way too run heavy, but I think he's finding out what works.  It takes time to have it come together, and sure, I could see regression happen against a better front-7, but this was good for the entire system gelling.
