Feels good doesn't it?

I am seriously worried about our FB situation. What was wrong with our running game earlier this year...? No Hoover! Who will we not have Sunday...? Hoover and probably Fiametta too. And to top it all off, we may be down a TE too!!!

Don't count on our running game! I'm not saying they can't run without the FBs, but you just can't bank on them being affective because they haven't been thus far.

Unfortunately this may force the ball into Jake's hands, which is a setup for disaster! This isn't the same Jake that has had success against the Saints in the past.

To make matters even worse, our lack of offense will put our def out on the field for an extremely long time, which will most definitely affect their performance. You can't be aggressive when you have no wind!

Jeff King is a good blocker and knows the protections. I think he will be in at fullback.

The cup half full side is King has good hands and can get some good fullback passes out of the back field and over the middle. Having Barnidge and King on the field at the same time will give some good 5-10 yard targets for Jake.

The cup half empty is,...can King hit a hole like a fullback? if he can then we are in good shape, if not, its going to be up to the running backs to do a Barry Sanders routine!

This also gives us an opportunity or obligation to put Kenny Moore and Dwayne Jarrett in the game at the same time a lot-- Dwayne will have to block a lot-- Kenny may give us another weapon.

The offensive line is also going to have to play the game of the century! Defense is going to have to be lights out!

I think we have a team that responds the best when the pressure is the biggest-- this game has little meaning to the Saints who have the division in the bag-- for us its a HAVE to win.

i haven't seen who did and didn't make the trip yet. where'd you see that?

Also on the home page the first story Kasay in Question ends by saying

Fullback Brad Hoover was the only Panther ruled out for the trip.

I'm assuming therefore that the rest made the trip. Everyone else is questionable except for Jake who is listed as probable.
