Panther - Jags Picks

The media and public in general are fairly evenly split when predicting the outcome of Sunday's Panthers-Jaguars matchup. 

CBS is split 4-3 in favor of the Jaguars. 

ESPN has quickly become the bottom of the barrel for sports news and analysis, but here are their picks anyways... they are split down the middle. Three for the Jags, three for the Panthers. 

 

Microsoft Cortana is an interesting way of predicting games

Cortana uses an algorithm put together by Bing Predicts to pick an outright winner in every NFL game. The algorithm takes into account advanced stats and home-field advantage, and there's a public-perception element that incorporates data from Twitter and Facebook.

Last season, Cortana correctly predicted 67% of all NFL games. It has since picked 71% of Wimbledon results and 75% of the Women's World Cup knockout stage correctly. The model has dabbled in areas outside of sports — including American Idol and the Grammys — but is sticking to sports this NFL season.

This week Cortana gives the Panthers a 58.2% chance of sweet victory. 

Finally, on NFL.com, fan consensus says the Panthers win.

According to my brother, avid Jags fan, the defense is really improved. They are expecting A. Robinson to really break out (as am I for fantasy sake) and if they can get the run game going they will be dangerous on offense. All that said they are a young, inexperienced team. I think our defense will shut it down and possibly even get a TD or 2.

The Jags defense is LEGIT...and their offense actually looked decent in the preseason...and they are at home...

It's why i'm didn't pick Carolina for my suicide pick this week...

I think Carolina will win though...it's just going to be in ugly fashion...13 -10 type of victory...

It's looking like Josh Norman is going to play which will neutralize Allen Robinson...our D-Line can neutralize Yeldon...we should be fine...

This just feels to me like one of those games that I get my hopes and expectations up just to have my heart ripped out of my chest and shoved up my ass, so because of this, I'm going into the game kind of on the fence.  I think we should win, but we've lost easier games at more inopportune times.  Also, last week was essentially a bye week with the starters getting time off, and we all know what bye weeks mean in Rivera-land.

Losing to the Jags would point to our team being one of the worst teams in the NFL. Of course it's only one game, but the Jags are one of the worst teams we'll face this season. If we can't even beat the bottom feeding Jags (and no their offense is not good) then we're in for probably a terrible season.

    • Best to see Icky in the position we drafted him in to see if he continues making progress. All signs point to Canales/Morgan staying on board and so decisions on whether to move him elsewhere on the line will probably be done during the offseason. Personally, I'm more concerned about a more long-term answer at safety and Moton's spot. Love the guy but he's a FA after 2026 and he'll be 32 by then. Kinda has that sign of having to let a player walk one year too early.
    • All I am saying is IMO if we were going to rework or extend his deal I think it would have happened by now.   Just feels like they are going to bite the bullet and let it run its course
    • I mean me speaking honestly per normal- RT is not even on my radar for needing fixing....it sorta should be, but I feel its around 20s in "hey this need attention". Motown could have another 5 years of solid play leftd in his body and mind. I know something needs to done with his contract, its had money pushed back into the late years like three times now. He got like a 38 million cap number cause rhule, frittterererer and this past season Dan deferred money.  I think he's been "healthy" for most of his career and seems to work hard at being able to play. He's a good player to have on the team. I got no idea how this plays out.   We need to have friendly bet about Christs next contract- I say he gets 8million per and 40% guaranteed. If he gets below that, you are the true kungfu master- deal?
