0 respect. I mean 11 is ok. The rest are just purely based off of the fact that the saint supposedly were missing their whole team when we played them. Unless I’m mistaken when they played the Packers they were missing a few players. The difference of who they were missing against us even adding in the coaches should equate to pure domination at the extent we handed to them. Take away that bad mistake by Darnold trying to shovel it to Hubbard and then Aints wouldn’t have even smelled the red zone and gotten shut out. 

So many salty, butt hurt Saints fan are making the “coaches and players being out” the excuse as to why they lost and we are still a bad team. 
Wish we were playing them again soon. When we beat them again what will their excuse be this time I wonder?

Raise your hand if you thought the Carolina Panthers would be leading the NFL in total defense and scoring defense after two games. Now put your hand down—lying is wrong. Yes, the Panthers have benefitted from matchups with the hapless Jets and a game against the New Orleans Saints in which bad Jameis Winston showed up. But Brian Burns, Haason Reddick and the Carolina defense deserves credit for how well they have played. Now the Panthers are travelling to Houston to play a Texans team that will be rolling out a rookie quarterback making his first career start in Davis Mills. The good times just keep on rolling.

Not to look ahead because we need to focus and take care of Houston on Thursday but I seem to recall it wasn't till our complete thrashing of the Cowboys on thanksgiving that the whole world took notice that the 2015 Panthers were an absolute juggernaut. Several experts had even picked the Cowboys to win that game even though we entered 10-0. And if that sounds outlandish, just check this link: https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2015/11/25/9796444/2015-nfl-picks-predictions-experts-week-12-panthers-cowboys-seahawks-steelers-falcons-vikings

 

It's possible the Cowboys may serve a similar role this year.

I can understand why they didn't have us in the top 10 yet. I really believe that our defense has the ability to carry us until Sam can get completely comfortable and have him win games on his own. I think having this primetime game will help too. People who haven't seen us are going to be shocked.

Most everyone jumped us up quite a bit. CBS jumped us 12 spots to 11. We'll be in the top 10 with more than a few after this week I suspect. 

On top of it, we leap froged the saints who are now at 13.

I wasn't expecting this.  

Welp, they know we're coming now.

    • I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.
    • He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.
    • 6-10 carries for  35-45 yds and 3-5 catches for 15-25 would be great.
