It's hard to beat a good team twice though. I think Seattle is the overall better team of the two, but the circumstances I believe favors the Panthers in that matchup.

Rams

Rams since you beat them already and they are 0-2 on the road against NFC South teams.

Let's say we take care of business against the Bucs and/or the Falcons take care of the Saints and we lock that 4th seed for the playoffs. Who do we root for this Sunday in the NFC West matchup with Seahawks at San Francisco winner takes the NFC West division. A Seahawks win would mean we face the Rams at home or with a 49ers win we host the Seahawks again. Which opponent would most prefer? In the earlier Rams game we won primary due to turnovers specifically Mike Jackson pick-6 in combination with a good running game with Chuba and Rico whereas we kept the Rams offense off the field and Bryce was able to connect on two big 4th down throws for touchdowns. However when the Rams offense was on the field they pretty much got whatever they wanted, Williams and Corum gashed us in the run game, and we had no answer for Devonte Adams. Granted whe were missing some pieces on defense with Horn and Moehrig. Against Seattle our defense held it's own for the most part, it was our offense and turnovers which aided in the Panthers loss. Seattle was the most stingy, best tackling defense the Panthers have played all season, and when we turned Darnold over we didn't do much with it. The offense had no answers for what the defense was throwing at them and apparently were caught off guard by the amount of man coverage the Seahawks played. With all that who do you think would be the better matchup the 2nd time around? I trust Stafford far more than I do Darnold, both running games are on par with each other, of the defenses Seattle has the dominant unit. I personally prefer Seattle again, that would mark their 3rd consecutive road game, we've just played them, so we know exactly what to expect, and I feel Caneles should be able to come up with a better scheme to counteract what the Seahawks defense was doing, and we may be able to trip Darnold up, I don't want to try and win another shootout against the Rams.

I remember watching him at bama and thinking he throws a lot of wobbly non spiral balls that have very little velocity. Knew it would be a real problem in the NFL and it is.

His wife makes great meatballs though. To be fair, he didn't hire himself here. He dazzled and bamboozled them with what they wanted to hear. He was going to be an innovative, program-builder, culture-installing football genius. They ate it up like those fabulous meatballs.

This Sun Bowl is crazy

Stephen Curry is rooting for us this Saturday (1) Scott Fowler on X: "I asked No. 1 Panthers fan Steph Curry what he thought about Carolina’s big game against Tampa Bay coming up. https://t.co/rXa4HD5mRz" / X

So wait.... Bryce has decent pass protection?!?!?!?!?!?!

We aren't going to get anything for him unless Jones is stupid again and wants to make another deal for our junk. So he is here. Buyers remorse. What I am a bit puzzled about is that he just needs more time, more reps etc. He's not a 19 or 20 year old youngster. He will be 25 at the end of January.

They're talking about his record vs. ranked teams now. He'll be 0-20 over his last 20 ranked opponents after today. He did best two ranked teams at Temple but both those teams ended the season unranked. I dug it up when we were looking into hiring him. One of them was Navy and the other one was a similar type team that's rarely ever ranked.

One of Us.

Utah is giving Rhule's Huskers the business. Rhuoe thinks he looks like a cool tough real Nebraskan in that backwards camo hat. LOL

Along with DL and LBs, good lord. Have to do that.

Need to address OL in the draft for sure.

Dumbest, doubtful - we had retarded Shula running our offense for many years Least talented, most likely. We have JAGs at like half our starting spots

Yeah, I can't believe our god awful pass offense wasn't number 1. Or our inability to get a first down after getting a penalty on offense...

And for good reason - whenever we do, it never works. Only blitz I have seen have some success is a safety blitz or corner blitz. Problem is, when we blitz, we are asking our LBs/safeties who are terrible in coverage to cover people 1 on 1

Not surprisingly when we rarely get sacks. I know we haven't been great on 3rd and long on D, but most teams can get to 3rd and short/medium because we rarely get sacks or TFL

I don't get the hate for this. It was a 2 year extension that will be done after the 2027 season. The only tackle we had to replace him was BC, who our team values more as depth because he can play most spots on the oline. Oline injuries are inevitable and depth is vital, which we would have had practically none of without moton. That extension gives us time to draft a OT or let us draft a depth lineman spot and let us move BC to RT (if he is able to come back from his injury and still be as good).

I think the main issue with us with Bryce is that we can't control or attack the middle of the field with him. He doesn't have the zip or we don't have the players to attack or threaten the middle of the field.

Gibbs was basically used as a wr in Bryce's final year. Gibbs was incredible.

Try 2022

You mean the running back? Of course. Edit: And he wasn't there in 2021.

Does Jahmyr Gibbs ring a bell?
