I forgot who it was but they said he was a taller Thielen and I thought that a perfect comparison, both are finesse route runners with great ball skills. Jackson was a much more physical down field receiver

If they come out doing the same thing, only hoping to execute it better, or whatever nonsense, it will be another loss.

T-Mac reminds me a lot of Larry Fitzgerald. I'm not saying he's gonna be Fitzgerald but they're both guys who are big receivers who win more on crisp route running and natural hands and ball skills than on just overpowering physical domination.

We didn't split carries with Rico and Chuba. Rick got 18 out of 21 RB carries. Bryce / others didn't execute to force the Saints off the LoS and we couldn't move the ball as a result. I don't think Horn slips twice so I suspect we win a close game

Not only do we win the division if we win our next two games, we eliminate the Bucs and send them home if we win our next two. It's always nice sending a division rival packing. We have to do this.

Agreed. Highly unlikely we sweep Tampa. They need to take care of business tomorrow. I’m excited. Some questions will be answered tomorrow.

With a win our playoff odds go from 47% to 62%. A loss would drop them to 24%. So yeah, pretty close to a must win game.

Let’s just keep the guy healthy, he will grow right into those kind of shoes. Looking at our history, I would say he is a clear notch above DJ Moore. Which is exciting to think about.

I gotta point out Gettleman’s first draft where he did in fact fix some poo that had been plaguing the DL for years. Clueless on the OL though.

Should have been 6 things. Panthers pass pro. I think they are gonna have to throw to get NO out of the box and if they can’t it won’t be pretty. Besides Horn falling down my basic memory from the last game is running the ball into a pile of Saints and getting very little. If we find ourselves there again we need to counter.

The difference is Rico and Chubba are full strength. Last time we were splitting carries and we should have been riding Rico. This time I believe Chubba and Rico both will have solid games.

If we lose tomorrow we’d have to sweep the Bucs in order to get into the playoffs. With a loss tomorrow the Bucs would then hold the tie breaker if we finished tied If we can’t split with NO then we sure as hell not sweeping Tampa It’s win or go home tomorrow in my eyes Biggest game since 2017 playoff game imo

Grok AI: No, there are no credible reports that the Carolina Hurricanes offered Jake Guentzel the same contract terms as Tampa Bay (7 years, $63 million total, $9 million AAV) before he signed with the Lightning. Reliable sources, including The Athletic, consistently reported that Carolina’s offer during negotiations was an eight-year deal worth $64 million ($8 million AAV). Guentzel did not accept it promptly, leading the Hurricanes to trade his negotiating rights to Tampa Bay on June 30, 2024, for a 2025 third-round pick. He then quickly signed the 7x$9M deal with the Lightning on July 1, 2024. Guentzel himself later reflected (in 2025 interviews) that staying in Carolina was his initial preference, but negotiations stalled and “didn’t work out,” with Tampa’s opportunity becoming a “no-brainer.” No reports from outlets like ESPN, NHL.com, or insiders (e.g., Elliotte Friedman, Pierre LeBrun, Frank Seravalli) indicate Carolina ever matched or offered the Lightning’s exact terms—total money, AAV, or length. The extra year was Carolina’s key advantage, but they reportedly stuck closer to $8M AAV and moved on when Guentzel explored options.

5 things to watch as the Panthers look to even the series with the Saints https://www.panthers.com/news/5-things-to-watch-as-the-panthers-look-to-even-the-series-with-the-saints

I GOT ONE THING TO SAY. GO NAVY BEAT ARMY

Why are so many people making this an issue? It's called a team. You can't win, especially against good teams if you don't have contributions from all aspects of the game. Our defense FORCED these turnovers. That's how you win games. Let's stop making this all about the offense. TEAM EVENT.

It'll be interesting to see how they put resources into the defense and how the offense suffers. We've dumped nearly everything there the past 3 years which obviously isn't sustainable. We've skipped over gems on the line in the draft to draft raw prospects and those huge salaries are looming large. Feels like we need at least 2 more drafts, maybe 3 to get the rhythm back.

Thought about going down. Tickets are cheap but flights are too much

Neither a Gamecocks fan or Gamecocks hater, but he certainly needs more time at that level, but also at a program that has a bit of a record of qb development and success beyond just being bowl-eligible.

Panthers activate a linebacker, add to the injury report The team activated linebacker Isaiah Simmons from the practice squad by standard elevation.

Panthers are so unpredictable, they might just lose tomorrow. However, I think Saints come down to earth after a huge emotional win vs Bucs last week.
