I finally feel KA has reached a point where the game has slowed down for him and he can run the offense fairly efficiently. The run Defense MUST be fixed this game, if we are still getting gashed as we are fairly healthy it will tell me all i need to know about Ron. If we need to employ a 46 bear or 52 on obvious run downs i want them held under 100 or under 4 ypc.

The only thing this game can possibly tell us is that we're absolutely out of the playoff picture if we lose it.

The Falcons are a 2-7 team. Beating them doesn't tell you much of anything.

If we win it will tell us what we already know, we can beat crap teams, but have yet to beat any really good teams. 

Kyle Allen has to stop turning the ball over for us to win, cant have fumbles when you are leading the game which directly leads to them taking the lead. Cant have INT's in the red zone when you are trying to comeback.

Its still the NFL and trust me if we have not fixed our gap control we will get gashed and this game will be closer then it should. Every NFL game can tell you something, there is something every team can do well and no team is that awful al la they just bested the Saints.

Even if we give some short throws up we must show that we can stop the run....its time.

This game won't show that even if we do have success slowing their running game down. They're the 4th worst rushing offense in the league and they're missing their starting RB. If they run the ball down our throats tomorrow then it's all but confirmed - we will likely end up being one of the all-time pathetic run defenses in NFL history.

As long as he backs it up i dont have a problem...two or three sack game maybe?

Love it, if the team can rally around the poo talking.

But sometimes this can spark a fire with the opposition and backfire. He's just adding a little amo to a pretty confident falcon team after thrashing the saints

Above average HBs are a dime a dozen bad gap control will result in him getting a high ypc. Hell the way hbs come about in the NFL he might be the next freeman no on knows about, there is a reason they dont cost alot unless they are elite....only pass catching hbs like CMC are worth paying imo.

Things change in the NFL from week to week.  A week ago, most here would have predicted the Saints to win the rest of their games, but they lost to Atlanta and looked bad doing it.  We could lose this game and win out, or win it and lose out.  The only thing it will really tell us is if we are going to be 5-5 or 6-4.

Being 5-5 in the NFC this year might mean you have to win out to have a shot at the playoffs. A big issue we have is that we're at the bottom of the barrel 5-4 teams because they all currently hold tie breakers over us.

      Anyone left who does not believe in Bryce ?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't need my QB to have arm talent for me to like them, but I do put a lot of weight to how it can affect that player's max potential when it's as bad as Bryce's is, particularly when combined with his overall size.  Even the most ardent Bryce supporters can't honestly deny that Bryce is likely to have the weakest arm of all starting QB's his entire career, maybe some year's he's only in the Bottom 5, but short of pumping steroids, that's never going to change. I'm not a historian of the league on QB's arm strength compared to others, but how many players with that weak of an arm compared to the rest of the league, also was an above average QB for a sustained period of time? I know Brees didn't have a great arm and that's the comparison people like to use for Bryce, but again, he's smaller and weaker armed than even Brees was, and Brees is one of the biggest outliers in NFL history as is.  Which is why Bryce was also betting on him becoming THE biggest outlier in league history at the position.  Bryce doesn't need to become any certain type of QB for me to like him or to be considered a success.  But he does need to become a QB who raises the play of your team, who can drag you to wins when needed, and has you as a contender in more years than not (all teams have down years, but the great QB's have their teams winning playoff games more years than not). It's why I didn't want to draft Bryce, because I just never did, and still don't, think he has that potential in him for a long period of time and at a high level.  Can we put the perfect team around him and we get the right schedule in any given year for a player like him to lead us to a high seed and maybe make a run, sure of course.   But those teams don't have sustained success because it takes the perfect combination of rookie contracts and lucky picks/signings that all pan out at the right time.  They have a great regular season, flame out in the playoffs, and then go back to being that team that either just misses the playoffs or just makes it in to lose in the first round every year.  Picking in the 13-20 range every year, always missing out on the true elite talent in the draft but still not contending. Is that who fans want us to become?  I know it's better than what we've been for a while, but I want better for my team, I love our Panthers and I want us to win the Super Bowl. Prove me wrong, I want to be wrong, I don't want to be stuck in NFL purgatory, I don't want to need to have to find a new QB in 2 or 3 years because we still can't get into the playoffs. But I am who I am, and I am someone who doesn't keep his team colored glasses on at all times to only looks at the positive, I look at realities and call them how I see them.  And I see Bryce as our path to NFL purgatory at best right now and it scares the living hell out of me. Bryce, prove me wrong.
