Panthers will win Sunday

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.

      Redzone Offense vs. KC by drive

      By Icege · Posted

      Bryce put it in a spot only his guy could get it only for David Moore to drop it. T_T Tremble and Horn both struggled yesterday and that killed me since they're two of my favourite players. Tommy knows he has to come down with this one. Folks were understandably saying that JT would've caught that had he not gotten hurt a few plays earlier. The more I look at this play, the more I think that Bryce made the right decision throwing it out the back of the endzone. He could have tried to laser it in to Thielen, but that safety is lurking awfully close inside. Insuring the field goal here after a 44sec drive to end the half was the right move.

      Except Bryce was the main reason we were in it

      NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
