Playing Panthers Takes a Toll

[panthers55]

Yes and he had a decent game. A few tackles for loss I think and 2 or 3 passes deflected.

But not the game that a few posters who call themselves critics were expecting.  Truth is that the offensive line has held up pretty well against 2 teams who not only have good defensive lines but who brought pressure early and often.  That hopefully bodes well for the future.

Carolina Panthers bringing the pain!!!!!!

It's actually been true for several years now.

We're a very physical team.

Not a dirty team, mind you. Just a physical one.

Speaking of the Texans did Clowney even play on Sunday? I didn't even notice him so either he's a huge bust or Oher has been playing pretty well.

Clowney hasn't been 'Watt Junior' like they were hoping, but this was only his 6th game, so too soon to pass judgement.

And it def. wasn't worthy of Cam's first down point.

not at all. pretty dumb to taunt when you havent done poo all game.

That is something the "experts" always seem to forget about the Panthers, when we play our game we are hard to beat. Yes, it would be nice to put up offensive number that the "experts" like to suck on, but we are a defensive team at heart, so nobody likes us. 

But they will be coming  around real soon.

The Panthers are exactly like Coach Rivera wants them to be.

It is what it is. :D

when we shithoused the chargers in 2012 one of their players sacked cam when they were down like 24-0 and he did the super man pose.  Watt's point made me think of that.

I mentoned during the Hous game day thread that we were dropping bodies, every time we hit someone they had a hard time getting up.......me like

May have been said but I'll say it here because of the Watt mention.

 

Kudos to Remmers for doing so well on Watt. And to Gettleman for finding Remmers.

Guess jj watt should have spent the offseason in a real cabin

I was at the game in SF in 13 and it was obvious who was the more physical team when the Niners were considered by everyone to be the most physical team in the league during the Harbaugh years. I was 5 rows behind watching Tolbert KO Eric Reid and our DLine go for 6 sacks on the supposed best OLine in football. It was also a beauty to see Mitchell knock Vernon Davis out of the game and TD run through to gap and bust the ball out of Hunter. We might not win every game but were gonna win every fight

Watts only sack was when Cam took off from the pocket and Watt hit him about a yard or two behind the line of scrimmage, so it wasn't even much of a sack.

Yea, I didn't think it should have even counted as a sack.  Cam was a runner at that point.  I distinctly remember D. Edwards getting screwed out of a sack a couple years ago (can't remember against who) because the QB was running at the time and even though Edwards tackled him well behind the LOS they said he was a runner and Edwards didn't get the sack.
