Who Said What?

I re-watched game one against the 49ers, and I picked up on some things that really had me thinking about the divisional match-up.

 

1.  I hope Chase Blackburn plays up to the level AJ Klein did in the first meeting.  Klein played almost mistake free.  He played fast and stout at the point of attack.  When he dropped into coverage, he didn't get beat once.  It was easy to see because obviously they were game planning to try and expose the rookie.

 

2.  We really had some big miscues on the o-line by Chandler, and I believe that he has progressed on the basic mental assignments that he struggled with in that game.

 

3.  There were some crucial drops that stalled some promising drives.

 

4.  We completely owned Kaepernick.  He looked horrible and the only play they didn't make was the drop by the TE towards the end of the third.  Other than that, we dominated their offense and kept them super uncomfortable.

 

5.  If we make the plays we didn't(i.e. pass drops, int drops, and routine 0-line blitz pick-up), we will dominate this game. 

 

Kaepernick is still a one read QB who only excels against terrible defenses.  I am not worried about their gameplan as our defense matches up against their offense better than any defense in the league.  Why would we struggle against Michael Crabtree when we have faced far superior recievers all season?  Analysts should be choosing Carolina!

watch it not long ago as well... great notes! i will add "no butterfingers" and Cam must keep that ball down!... on a side note we might sneak McNutt in there as well as B.Williams. if we pound them, we can then own them in the deep play action. i don't fear their secondary for some reason.

I forgot that Cap dropped the easy interception on the first damn drive

 

The thing is that could have started a blow out.  Kaepernick would have been shook down 0-7.  Analysts say that we are not built to comeback, but San Fran definately is not built to comeback against our defense.

Anyone else starting to get this feeling that the media is setting this up to make us the David vs. Goliath story?

Follow me here, if they are all right (the national media) then they have lost nothing. If they are wrong ( they will be ) the narrative will be " Wow, nobody but the Panthers saw this coming, the Carolina Panthers, the giant killers."

My point? Its a win win.

49ers win = all knowing media

Panthers win = gives our story a edge that can translate into an underdog storyline.

Idk, just a thought.

The last thing they want to do is take the ball out of Frank Gore's hands

It's going to be a really tough game, guys. And there's a decent chance we lose.

 

It'll be fun to watch, but stressful.

 

Yes the operative word watching any playoff game your team is in and especially this one..........stressful.

 

Like a wife or mother watching their son in the middle of a pack of open wheel race cars at the Indy 500......

 

hehe........and when the game is all over if the Cats win............what's the first thing a stressed out drained fan says??

 

That was great!...........lol!

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
