One day left in the 10 days of bad taste left in mouth

Whole first page of the forum all sports media...he said she said BS. One day before game time and maybe one thread on here about the game...c'mon man.

This is not a rah rah thread, its a get back to football thread

With that being said, I know things dont bode well for us, but its a division game and no matter what level the teams are at...its at least a close game to say the 4th qtr.

So lets see how our young team bounces back.

Do you think we ditch the read option and go back ocnventional in the run game? I dont think it will be eliminated but I hope it goes from 80% down to around 30%. OMG I hope we play some press and man coverage but that wont happen. Also who will step up and grab that turnover that can spark the D like agaisnt the Saints?

It was c-rations when I was in.....20 years later and I am still constipated

Me too. I went in in 1980, right before MREs were introduced. The first field expedient meal I ate was C-rations, include a ham loaf in a can that was date stamped on the bottom, "November 1952." Ate that point, that ham loaf was a full eight years older than I was! But I was pleasantly surprised by most of the stuff I got out of most mess halls. I guess I don't have a very discriminating palate.

Someone brought up a good point. All 3 of Falcons wins have come from teams in the 2nd worst division in the league, the AFC west. They have yet to beat a team with a backfield as good as ours, a WR as good as Smitty and a mobile QB like ours. Falcons are owing off a coast to coast game that was preceded by a Monday night game. We had 10 days rest and getting Bell and Jonathan Stewart back.

Sure on paper the Falcons should blow us out BUT considering all the facts I just listed I think we have a bigger chance than people think. Lets not forget last year when we played the Falcons we had a 21 point lead at half time and if we just had the defense we do now, we would have blown them out.

I hope we're up by 17 going into the 4th qtr. Fug the Falcons and their record. Carolina will come to play and WE have something to prove. I expect a W... Not for it to be " close in the 4th qtr"

Matty Ice will return to his water balloon throwing ways... You just wait and see

I think ATL has bought in their hype, ESPN already crowned them this week as champs after the 49ers lost. ATl is mocking us in interviews, we are at a low.....this all smell like a trap game for ATL. I really think we bounce back. I just hope we dont let them score on the opening drive.

We need this win...we need the damn georgia dome monkey of our back if we want the division.

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
