Panthers will win Sunday

Recommended Posts

Thats right boys and girls, the Panthers are going to win on Sunday.

 

You all know that I have been a Shula critic from day 1, but did you know that Shula from time to time actually does put together a nice game? It is those games that keeps the fans scratching their heads and wondering if there is hope. It is like a CIA torture tactic. Break them down almost completely, but then offer them a candy bar.

 

Flash back to 1998. High hopes are made for the Buccaneers who had a good 1997 season and look to improve on it. However, the Bucs lost the first two games of the season, scoring only an average of 11 points. But then, BAM, they host the Chicago Bears at home and Shula puts up 27 points and a victory.

 

I expect to see a competent offense on Sunday moving the ball. I expect a few long plays for touchdowns that will have the fans thinkging maybe, just maybe, this team finally has it together. Maybe Rivera is a good head coach afterall. Maybe we were all wrong about him.

 

It will be a nice sentiment going into the bye week.

You have been up too late Zod.

 

I will be at the stadium and in my heart, would love for the Panthers to win.

 

Sadly, I see Giants  38, Panthers 20.

 

...particularly sad as I'm staying over in Charlotte Sunday, which means, all I'll hear are Giants fans.

 

The only hope is the Manning is not a mobile QB; but, the receivers for the Giants will tear up that secondary.

Do we get to use the 98 Bucs defense?

it would be nice, but i just don't see it happening. they score too much and we're allergic to it this year.

 

i fully expect rivera to say in his pressure today that he doesn't see the sense in having a high scoring offense because the other team is just going to score as well and then everyone just gets tired. 

 

and then sunday the game plan will be to philosophically prove that you can win a game by keeping your score low....meanwhile the giants drop 50 on us.

    • Tua has maybe 2 passes further than 5 yards. 
    • I'd give the rookie WR's more credit than that. Bryce did actually earn most his yards against the Chiefs, but that Saints game was all rookie WR's yac. It was probably like 80ish of the 170 total passing yards were yac by JT and Coker. The throws have been accurate though and he's obviously playing with more confidence. I still want to see something over 40 yards in the air at some point that looks good/accurate
    • We’ll agree to disagree.  Maybe change my wording to better roster would have been more accurate. Gamecocks have some nice defensive players….but they are also thinner than Clemson all around.  it’s at Clemson.  Dabo.  Better overall roster.  And they are favored slightly….which essentially supports my prior post that either could win but if you had to pick without a dog in the race Clemson is the smarter pick.   straight up vs Carolina? I trust Clemson’s O more than Carolina’s.    Top 10 vs top 60 with the QB edge.  And Clemson’s D has some real studs on it too.   Which is what Vegas says.   I’ll make my pick game day.  Will depend on who can and can’t suit up for Clemson.  Carolina has been much healthier this year.  But ST could be the difference.  That Louisville game exposed some massive flaws in their kick game.  You don’t really want ST weakness showing itself vs Beamer
