Official Panthers - 49ers Playoff Gameday Thread

Recommended Posts

The day has arrived!

 

Today the Carolina Panthers host the San Francisco 49ers in their first playoff game since the 2008 season. They face a tough San Francisco team, the winner moves on to Seattle.

 

When: 1:00

 

TV: FOX

 

Radio: 1110WBT

 

Twitter: Follow @CarolinaHuddle for tweets from the sidelines starting at noon.

 

Keys to a Panthers Victory:

 

- Brandon Lafell must show up. We will need a tall possession receiver today against the physical San Fran defense.

- Contain Kaepernick in the pocket. His legs are more dangerous in keeping plays alive than his mediocre passing ability.

- Defensive points. If the defense can score or at least give the Panthers the ball inside the ten, we win.

 

 

Prediction

 

Niners - 13

Panthers - 24

    • After the Chiefs game a 6'5 X would really help in the Red zone. I would also love to add Slayton in FA 
    • But again, you can restock a defense through free agency much easier than offensive skill positions. Spend all our cap space on defense, take a true elite prospect who also happens to fit a position of need in T-Mac, and then use the rest of our picks on defense. Again, every season there’s a smattering of great DL, LB, and DB options in free agency, a Top 10 WR never hits free agency, ever.  The only way you get one is through the draft or giving up 1st round picks in a trade for one. If he’s there when we’re on the clock, he has to be the pick, he’s just that good.  
    • It must be an early Christmas for JT O'Sullivan having Thielen back so he could put a coal in Thielen's stocking every chance he gets.  Honestly, the biggest surprise is not so much the anticipation. There were those moments here and there last year as well. It's that even that one positive quality he had seemingly vanished his first two games to where it looked like it was all but over, only for it to start coming back some until you get exclamation points all over this game film. And some of those throws were under a lot of duress, something I feel is something new. Finally, those deeper shots are starting to land. Not all of them, but enough that defenses may have to start respecting them. No guarantees whether this will end up as more of anomaly but I certainly hope it isn't. The Green Bay game was a sampler of what BY could be. Against KC, we got a meal. If we could start getting these meals regularly, we might actually have something to work with here.
