It's a Trap!

I hereby am officially designating Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as a trap game. 

Here are a few of the factors that went into making this official designation. 

- Record flooding in Charlotte a distraction, especially to the players with families. I know my thoughts will be at home, so will theirs. 

- Terrible officiating , as outlined here by our own PhillyB. Also, it appears Carolina is getting the worst of the worst, as far as officials go. 

- Tampa is not as bad as you think. They defeated a Saints team with Drew Brees in New Orleans in a much more convincing fashion than Carolina did at home without Drew Brees. 

- Division matchups are rarely anything but a dog fight for the Panthers to begin with. 

- Although AJ Klein is a good player, missing Luke Kuechly started to show itself last week. Tackling was very sloppy. 

In conclusion...

Take this game against Tampa Bay lightly at your own risk.

It took one of Cam's best performances ever to knock off a brees-less Saints team.  Take away Norman's INT, and we likely lose that game. 

With all the noise last week before the NO game about how we were going to dominate them and then didn't, I'm hoping the players may have learned a lesson.

Agree.

 

Plus with the bye coming next week it's easy to overlook Tampa, Winston actually looked good in Houston, his number may not show it but if there's any fan base that knows not to judge a QB's performance by the boxscore it's this one. Winston got the Cam treatment and was letdown by multiple drops by his WR's.

 

Missing Luke his huge if it's rainy and it becomes a battle of running backs, the Bucs OC said yesterday the Panthers D is pretty vanilla without Luke.

 

It'd sure suck having to sit on a loss to the Bucs for 2 weeks...

The players were saying this? I must have missed that.

Not sure if the players did, but pretty much everyone else did.  Did you visit the board last week?  If you hear something enough, even it's outside of your little world, you have a tendency to start to believe it.  Lighten up dude, it's Friday.  We get to drink booze if we wanna.

It's amazing how well a shitty team can look when they are allowed to hold all game.

Fans are not players. No players said that.

Other than a few homer fans here, that's about it.

I'm sure some players read the huddle, but luckily they aren't nearly as fragile or fickle as some of the people here.

      Best Offensive Line in Years

      And it just made sense after spending on the guards to shore up the interior for years. Instead they took an injured player at a position they were set at. Panthers gonna panther

      That's about right and worth more than zero. The list of tag and trades for close in value - our own clowney, Javis Landry, Yannick Ngakoue BY size chance, Im mainly praising him and Morgan should know his value well enough. LTs get PAID and there's only around 14 of them the rest are acting like LTs.      This could be a classic and Im a sucker for classics (truth told).  If he keeps playing LT at a high level, you will be in shock at dem contract zeros, brother! lewis got 4 yrs 53 and hunt got 100 million. Neither of them could play LT and I have huge doubts about either at C. What christ did moving from C to LT within one week and not miss a beat, that my friend is pure talent. Talent gets PAID in the NFL.  You may even start up trading Icky and drop a bag for Christ rumors...... Im willing to bet right now he gets over 10mill per/

      There are just too many guys on this team that brings absolutely nothing to the game. It’s Ball and Miller and then a bunch of jags at best.
