Top 5 reasons why the Panthers will beat Detroit

[dpm0409]

The only way I see us winning is with a dominant running game Sunday.

:iagree: However, you know we aren't going to come out and run the ball consistently. I think more and more people are realizing that this years main focus is, and always has been, developing Cam. I don't see us changing up our game plan all that much from weeks 1-10, as far as our play selection goes.

Although I will say that if Detroit's front 4 gets constant pressure (which they probably will) and over pursue, then Cam could definitely rack up some rushing yards.

#8 Id really like a footlong philly sub from subway

Im really high

#9 If Chud somehow finds a way to run the fuging ball effectively!

[CarolinaNut]

if williams/stewart don't get 30 combined touches in this game then chud is a moron...he needs to help cam out by running the ball more...quit putting everything on cam's shoulders

Every week I root for this team to take their opponents but in the back of my mind I was always concerned about the defense. IMHO, I don't see this team winning until they do something about their special team and defense generosity towards their opponents.

2. Panthers are underrated We all know that the Panthers are not as nearly bad as their 2-7 record indicates. We should of beaten Arizona, our defense blew alot of coverages that led to their touchdowns and a special teams mistake that allowed patrick peterson to score the game winning touchdown beat us.

It's too bad we still have to play defense and special teams against the Lions.

Chud needs a game where he can prove Double Trouble can carry us just as much as Newton. Full force balanced attack.

u right, u right.

Dwill/Stew have the skill set to beat the lions on the ground themselves, but its really more than just them; its a toxic mixture of Playcalling, Offensive line play and the will to win.

i think this game is more winnable than most people think, but Ford Field is a tough place to play. Det 24 Car 19

I will only be surprised if we blow them out and disappointed if we play like last Sunday.

[PhillyB]

if the defense doesn't play like the AARP we'll be fine.

Their defense is VERY aggressive and over-pursue a lot. I think we should run a lot of screens and draws and option plays against them. With their style of defense we could get some big gains on the ground as they go all-out to get to Cam.

I feel everyone's frustation, but it's time to get serious about this week and put the shoulda, coulda and woulda's behind us. It's plausible that we have a better run game than Detroit. Yes? And Detroit's D isn't dominating like everyone expected either. No? In fact, if you think about it - we have many advantages in this game and our head is in the toilet. Has anyone ever heard of the old adage that says, "where there's smoke - there's fire"? Well folks, that smells like a good opportunity for a win. But, if you don't "Git yer head outta da can & look at da truf" it won't be victory you're smellin'. I hope Pantherrice is right!
