Official Panthers at Eagles Gameday Thread!


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Here we go boys and girls. 

It is gut check time. 

Will the Carolina Panthers rise to the occasion and make us proud while cementing their contender status? 

Or will we see yet another incomplete game, poor coaching decisions, and an under preparedness that we have witnessed already too much this season?

 

One thing is certain, either way there will be plenty to discuss. 

 

 

Please don't embarrass us. In fact, how about shocking us with a dub today. Is that too much to ask?

Usually this would be the type of game Rivera would have this team pumped for a win. Because he poo his pants on game planning the week before going into an "easy" win. But, I just thought about it Friday and I do not believe this team is good enough to overcome Rivera and his disparities as a Head Coach. Eagles win 27-20. Tepper, hire an young, offensive minded, head coach for this NFL that won't allow Defense to be played!

I like us today...got a feeling we'll go like we did against the Pats last year.  We may play down to last year's Bears and this year's Giants, but we aren't scared of anyone.  

Eagles have a better defense than the Pats last year.

It's early, but it does feel like the season is on the line here.  Like Jeremy said we're either showing we're a contender, or we're showing that mediocrity is our ceiling.

 

Also, we HAVE to start winning on the road again. Dropped 4 or 5 road games in a row it seems like going back to last year. Philly seems like a nice place to start reversing that trend.

    • True.  Sam and Baker did not do well here but went on to better things under better coaching, circumstances or both.  The real question is, ‘why aren’t the Panthers able to get improved performance out of ‘broken toys’, similar to Minnesota and Tampa? That is a rhetorical question.  I think we know the answer.   [The cultural reference to Pogo dates me, I admit.]
    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.  
    • I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch
