If he's in protocol and they diagnosed him with a concussion Sunday, he's not playing this week. The team would be crazy to let him. He's the type you have to force to sit. 

There are different levels of a concussion. Doubt he had the severe kind seeing as he kept his balance and scored on the play. Luke looked like he didn't know where he was

We will defeat the Bucs unless we have major problems. 35-10 Panthers

Ah. The battle of 2 turnover machines. Hope Luke studies up hard this week & the crowd had better be in this one for the full 60 minutes. Winston is still susceptible to trick defensive plays & coverage reads. Whoever scores best - td's not fg's - off turnovers wins.

If DA starts, the play calling will be different. Something the Bucs haven't seen. Defense gets a surge at home and hopefully Mike Evans doesn't ball out on us. We take this one home.

Panthers - 31

Bucs - 28

Just please win.  Win by a fg, win by a safety, win because we made a PAT and they didn't, I don't care. 

Leaving at 6 am on Tuesday morning from Charlotte back to Washington, ST is gonna suck if we don't.

So any update on TD's hamstring injury?

Admire the dedication.

I don't think it is the end of the season if we get beat.  Big let down?  Yes.  Not an end to the season.  We can still win the division.

[MV%doe]

I keep going back and forth on weather or not Winston is a good QB. I hope mccoy is out, cause i remember when the panthers could not block him even with three guys!

I have no clue about panthers, a true enigma. Panthers could win 45-0 or lose like that.

[Jon Snow]

This team is so out of sorts right now I'm not sure they can beat anyone.  Expect the worst, hope for the best.

this isnt 2014, 7 wins wont cut it this year. I dont think the falcons drop off as bad this year.

Yep I believe it will take 10 wins to make the playoffs and that would require us going 9-2 if we lose this game.  I don't like those chances

Matt ryan was just throwing it up with his eyes closed sunday.  I understand it was hulio most of the time but tampas recivers are high quality also.  

Im not really sure what the answer is.  You blitz linebackers the middle is WIDE open.  You dont winston stands there and waits for a reciver to just run right past the corners zone into the gap.  Its almost to the point of going to man and just seeing what happens.

That's why I think you play bend but don't break. Give Winston the easy throws. Play that old school Panthers defense of backing off corners 15 yards from their receivers so they can't get an easy release and utilize Kuechlys excellent zone coverage and instinct's over the middle. If you give up a first so what, when you get down to that fugging red zone you play a spy on Winston with Kuechly and back off EVERYONE and bring a 3 man rush. Make Winston fit it into a bunch of bodies in the end zone. Hell he has to make at least 1 or two mistakes playing D like that. Just don't give up the big plays.

Of course the problem with bend but don't break d is if they run and guys up front can't beat their men you're kinda fugged. Also you gotta imagine Tampa will be mixing it up. Showing run and pass, showing pass and running. Ect ect...

We just gotta survive this one boys. Might get rough, buckle the fug up.
