If we lose to the Redskins...

[boo7382]

What I will say depends on how we lose... we are favored by 2.5 points (simply because we are the home team) so it's not like it would be a big upset for us to lose.

By why are we talking about losing? That sounds like a losers mentality to me.

key word would be IF we lose.

Would you like me to make an IF we win thread? Or maybe a mod could combine the 2 in here.:rolleyes:

What will you say? What does that say about the team?

Besides the Arizona game (which was Cam's first game) and the Jacksonville game (which the Panthers won), the Redskins are a team the Panthers SHOULD beat. Losing to them is a bad loss. It's at home, the Redskins have just made a change at QB, and they don't have a stud RB to gash the Panthers porous run defense. They are the first team besides those first two teams mentioned that didn't have a first round bye, appear in the NFC Championship game, or win the Superbowl in the last 2 seasons.

If the Panthers lose, it makes me very skeptical that any progress has been made this year. Cam Newton is a rookie but he has shown he has the talent and poise to be great. Every other team they lost to, the Panthers had no business beating at this point. Teams that are far more experienced and have had recent success. This game should mark the turning point - that the Panthers can beat teams they are supposed to beat. It took a monsoon, but they barely rose to the challenge against Jacksonville. Let's see what they can do this week against a very beatable Washington Redskins team.

But that is the same thing the Redskins could say about us. It's hard to win in the NFL against anyone. We've had a stretch of really bad play, but I'm still optimistic for the future. We just need some serious help on the defensive side of the ball. We're going to have to just grind our teeth a bit this year- like last- in my opinion.

Except last game, the redskins do have a good running game.

They are a team that has been playing very good, until last sunday.

That being said, their offense shouldn't be difficult to slow down.

Hopefully our 4th quarter offense will be much improved.

Duh we are suppose to win every games hands down. hell if the other team even tries to win or has 1 successful play our team is a failure. Even tho cam surprised us, his stats are finally normalizing to an above average rookie season level, but he is still failing too. If we don't win out the rest of the season this team sucks and I will post about it after every game and unreasonably vent about things I can not control.

if they lose to the Redskins than i will try to find out why, but do remember that while the Redskins have QB issues, they DO have a good running game with three guys including Hightower, Torian and Helu, they have WRs who can teams can win with and they have a good defense. if Washington is smart they keep Hall away from Smith and use Josh Wilson on that side with Atogwe as the free safety. they also have a pass rush with Orakpo and Kerrigan. if the panthers want to win, they should shut the run down and try to make Beck beat them.

We would be 3-20 if we lose on Sunday.

At what point does it become ok to bitch about a crappy team? 0-32?

thread predictions following a possible loss to the skins:

Nannee blows

Cam blew the game

The coaching sucks.

DWill Sucks

DTs are awful

CBs couldn't cover "insert random slow moving object"

Even though the trade deadline is past, we should trade for.

Inside info about "insert players name" and why he sucked.

What are we supposed to discuss after a loss on a panthers discussion forum?

[HoFBound90]

What are we supposed to discuss after a loss on a panthers discussion forum?

Idk...reasonable things and things that can be changed for the better now. Not about trading a rb with a recently huge contract, or a rookie qb playing out of his mind, or how 2 rookie dts are playing bad (really?....what did you expect?). Or that nannee a cast off #2 or 3 wr for a desperate team is not performing at an all star level. Or that a rookie coached mis used timeouts and have had a wrong gameplan. I mean these things are all natural and will work them selves out by next year or they won't and Rivera will be fired in 2 or 3 years.

well isn't this a cool way to get over hump day and roll into the weekend

this forum is shirts vs. skins every week

you can be somebody that bitches about the L and can't see past that or you can be the "voice of reason", excuse-making optimist.

I don't think there is any room for the prepare to lose, start bitching or defending now without even watching the game posters.

sh-t thread IMO

[Happy Panther]

So when our coaches and players make mistakes and can't execute we can't discuss that.

Got it.

our team is like jesus

its not real if you don't have faith
