Official Tennessee Titans at Carolina Panthers Gameday Thread


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Today the Carolina Panthers host the Tennessee Titans in a matchup of the mediocre. The question is, just who can out mediocre the other team? 

We will know soon enough. 

Until then, here are my patented KEYS TO THE GAME

1. GET ANGRY

Yeah, this is not an X's and O's kind of key. This is a key that speaks to the very soul of the team. After the embarrassment they endured last week, they need to come out with the mindset that they need to dominate the Titans. Want some respect again? Punch the Titans in the mouth and then keep kicking them when they are down. I want a blowout today. Get angry, boys. 

2. Pressure Tannehill

Tannehill is a decent game manager but will crumble once he is hit a few times. Such has always been the way with that guy. Take his mind out of the game early with a few nice legal hits. I like SpiderBurns today, feel he will have a another solid game at home. 

3. Diversify the offense

We all love Christian McCaffrey, but when he is 90% of the offense the team is just too susceptible to stalled drives. Kyle Allen needs to rebound from a horrible performance last week and deliver to Curtis Samuel deep early. That should loosen things up quite a bit for Norv Turner to call his typical gameplan. 

 

Have fun today, folks. And always remember, a day with Carolina Panthers football is better than any other day. 

Love you,

JI

They get angry point is a good one. One team flew to the ball with controlled rage last week. It wasn’t Carolina. I’ll be looking closely at that today.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
