Will the Giants be the "get right" game for the Panthers?
« on: Today at 10:44:37 AM »
 
the Panthers started out on fire 3-0.  They lost their key MLB and their star RB and crashed to an 0-3 stretch since (who knew injuries could impact a team's performance?).    Will the Panthers use the injury-riddled and struggling Giants team to "get right" this Sunday?

While I would expect the Giants to lose this game (how can anyone sanely expect anything else right now), I am guessing they'll play a lot better (or less poorly) than they did last week, even adjusting for the strength of the opponent. Even though Judge seems totally ineffective, these players are professionals, and anytime you get that humiliated and the whole country sees multiple people quitting the way they did, that tends to not be repeated a week later. Also, this week they will have had proper time to prepare for this game knowing that all these guys will be out, which they didn't have last week.

Last week I thought the Giants had no chance. This week I would say they have A chance, even though my base case would be a loss. Carolina is ok but not great, especially without CMC. This is a completely different opponent this week than last week, and the Giants themselves should play better than last week.

I'll actually be very surprised if this game is another massacre. This feels more like a 24-17 (Carolina win) type game to me. So is that a "get right" game for Carolina? It would be a win, which ultimately is all that matters.

This week, I'm taking the Giants in this bet. I think that they will answer the call. 24-20 Giants. Considering that the Chiefs, Raiders, and Bucs are coming after that, this is the one that we will get.

so sick of this ****ing team overall

Too many injuries to overcome on offense I think.
Still looked a bit lost on defense. Graham said he simplified the D but still a lot of blown coverages.

Who knows though...this team does tend to surprise.

I hope Jones turnovers was a one game bump in the road and not a sign of forcing things and opening the flood gates. They might have a chance vs Carolina.

If we lose this we go 1-9 before a real chance at victory imo. My prediction this year is 5-12. I originally had us going 9-8 possibly 10-6. Boy did I drink the Giant Blue cool aid.

Could you imagine Darnold coming into MetLife Stadium and lighting us up while Barkley is largely ineffective or potentially missing yet another game due to injury?

Quote

This Giant D is gonna make Darnold look like an All Pro QB, 3 passing TDs + 1 rushing TD for him in this game. Car 28-NY 17

Not having CMC, Shaq and Horn really puts us the bottom of the league. But a win would get us above 500 for now. if we get key players back we could still get to 8 or 9 wins. I 'll take that this year, but we better get a new long snapper in the draft...

 

Hey kidding...< makes the O face>

The answer is on the roster...I mean IR.

It's easy to be enthusiastic when they look at our O-line and realize they are only costumed as one.

Let's hope our oline can block the run better than they do the pass.  It will be an ugly game either way.  The offense is FUBAR without CMC.

      I agree, there are other ways to get open. AT when healthy shows proof as well. Jason Witten got open til he was 37, retired and came back.  Plus just like Tmac, he was the whole show on offense. Teams just had to focus on warren, still couldn't stop him.  Unlike all the players I want, warren is great human. I also agree he would put in all the time. I still have huge reverses about even getting a little open to the point where the QB would toss him a pass. I'll say this, let a offense mind get a hold of him (Reid, mcvay, shanny, O'Connell, etc) I believe that could decide his career. Panthers don't have one of those coaches.

      Panthers sign a... basketball player

      By 45catfan · Posted

      No risk and literally no point.  We have tried this before with basketball players who actually HAD a football background as well.  All of them flopped.  At best, training camp and practice squad fodder.

      That's the thing, he's this good and not even a finished product.  A lot of great TEs don't have elite twitch and suddenness to them.  He's a football player through and through and I feel that once he gets to eat/sleep football 24/7 in the NFL, he's going to hone his route tree while refining his breaks/cuts. My only knock on him is he's a bit stiff, which is hampers crisp route running.  Warren strikes me as a gym rat football junkie and I can see that cleaned up in short order...in the course of a season or less.  Unless your name is Brock Bowers, TEs usually don't set the League on fire their rookie season.  I could see him contributing heavily in year 1, none-the-less.
