being that we've pretty much clinched 3rd in the NFC South, our intraconference games are just about set. I personally am looking forward to the 2-4 prime time games we'll have now that our QB is a superstar, and so should you unless you're a goober who hates seeing the panthers get a spotlight for fear that the fan base might actually grow. So here are the teams we're facing in 2012:

Saints, Falcons, Buccaneers twice

Entire NFC East

Entire AFC West

Bears

and either the Cardinals or the Seahawks pending the result of the game they play against each other this Sunday

So make your predictions. I feel like we're going to have 3, one against the Cowboys, one against the Broncos, and one against the Saints or Falcons

I'll say we get 2 set games with maybe 1 flex game:

- Cam vs. The Golden Calf of Bristol will get a primetime slot for sure. Also has the storyline of Panthers/Fox, especially if it's in Charlotte.

- If we happen to play whichever team gets Andrew Luck that could be a prime time game, but that's impossible to predict. Dallas is always good for several prime time games and Cam coming into Dallas to face Romo would be a ratings-grabber, IMO.

- If we're in the playoff hunt I can see us getting a late season division game against the Saints or Falcons flexed into prime time.

      THIS MIGHT PISS OFF SOME STEVE SMITH SR. FANS:  He WAS detrimental to this team.  Sure, he is on the hall of fame ballot and is probably our best player ever--but he punched 2 teammates--and that is the tip of the glacier.  Remember, I watched him haze and belittle Dwayne Jarrett at an OTA. Jarrett even reacted by giving me a hard hand slap when I mentioned it to him--.  I know bullying when I see it (educator who has written books about trauma caused by abuse and bullying) I have commented on the fact that nobody seemed to be friends with Smith except Kasay.  He was a bully and the coaches allowed it. Bunch of Alpha males chewing the tall grass. Here is a list of all the WRs Steve Smith 'mentored" after they were drafted:  2003: Walter Young 2004: Keary Colbert, Drew Carter 2007: Dwayne Jarrett, Rhyne Robinson 2010: Brandon Lafell,  Armanti Edward, David Gettis 2011: Kealoha Pilares 2012: Joe Adams That is 10 WRs drafted and only 1 had some degree of success, Brandon Lafell, who averaged around 600 yards a season for 8 years in the NFL--it is noteworthy that his numbers increased after leaving Carolina for NE.   This proves nothing, but it is interesting and coincides with the list of free agents we brought in during that time.  My argument:  It is possible that whatever Smith contributed to this team could be a result of bullying others into more diminished roles--Smith called it competition, and in fairness, he was the hardest practicing player I ever watched at OTAs over the years.  But it seems he was Napoleonic in his approach to teammates, possibly damaging the unit and keeping young players from developing--transitioning from college to the pros must be intimidating--especially when an established player is constantly attacking (challenging, to Smith) you as you are trying to learn the plays and culture.  It was so bad when I saw him doing it to Jarrett, it pissed me off.  I think Jarrett was pretty slow and was unsure of the plays etc--it was his rookie OTAs.  This is not proof, just an interesting possibility.  If you have ever had someone at your place of employment with some authority start harassing you, you might understand how a 21-year old kid might feel.
