I don't know if they are all at the stadium already... Most likely they are still at their hotel as of now. But, regardless, I hope Foxy doesn't let the guys watch the ATL/MIN game, or at least the conclusion of it. I want our guys going into tonight's game with the same mindset they would if they were struggling to get into the playoffs. If ATL loses (although they are up right now in the 2nd Quarter), we win our division.

Say what you want about, these guys are professionals blah, blah, blah. If you found out you just won your division by default right before the biggest game of the regular season in your franchise's history, it's going to affect your mental mind state. I want our guys to be hungry and go out there and destroy the Giants and make ANOTHER statement on the national stage. I want the casual fans and hardcore fans alike to know who the f*ck we are.

That being said, I hope Fox made it a team rule that no one is allowed to watch the games. I want us to go out there and not know what we're playing for, but JUST PLAY.

Yeah, I was wondering about this too... I wouldn't want them watching... if I was coaching I'd tell them that this game was still critical.

Don't think they need that as a motivator.

I agree. Panthers should think about Homefield Advantage & the Superbowl.

I read an article recently in which Jake Delhomme said he would be following all of the divisional games, as he does about every week.

I hear he wipes their butts on gameday, too.

I'm an idiot.

Same thing with Denver last week, finding out in the stadium that the Chargers came back and won. Not sure how that affected their play, but the team can't avoid hearing the scores of the day.

[Fireball77]

If they are so mentally weak that it affects their focus on this game, they don't deserve to win the 1st seed.

It will be completely impossible to keep the results a secret.

I think that they will still have plenty of motivation....home field is on the line. I really havent seen them be unmotivated much this year, and if they cant get up for this game, then I will have to seriously rethink my hopes for this team.
