Why that play

Can’t do much when Brady falls on his ass on first passing attempt and bills have a free shot

Canales and personnel decisions equals missed opportunities

That is huge

All three charlotte Observer predictors took the Panthers to beat the Jets last week, so the margin among the trio has stayed the same. Fowler maintains a hefty lead at 6-1 over Kaye (2-5) and Zietlow (2-5). Fowler: Panthers 27, Bills 26. Even as I write this, I am having a hard time believing I am going to pick against reigning MVP Josh Allen and Buffalo. But the Panthers are a far better team when playing at home (3-0). The Panthers at least have a shot if they play turnover-free football and run the ball at least 35-40 times against Buffalo’s 31st-ranked rushing defense (with 70% of those carries going to Rico Dowdle, preferably). Put me down for an upset and, hey, if it doesn’t work out, at least I’m giving my colleagues a chance to catch up. Kaye: Bills 27, Panthers 24. I think this game will be close, regardless of who will be at QB for Carolina. The Panthers should have plenty of success on the ground with a few Tetairoa McMillan moments sprinkled in. Josh Allen, though, can be a monster on the football field, and it’s late October. Zietlow: Bills 38, Panthers 21. Trust me, I’ve heard the same things you have. The Bills haven’t beaten a team over .500 yet. They’ve lost two straight. The Panthers brought in former Bills quarterback Mike White to the practice squad to find a competitive edge. Etc. Etc. But this is a game the Bills need to win in order to get on the right track — and a bye week of preparation will only help Josh Allen and the rest of the team in this effort. I think the Panthers hold close for a while, but then the Bills pull away at the end.

Stop Allen, and the Bills are done Take a page from the Atlanta DC on blitzes he does not handle well and male sure gap integrity is held And hit him

What did Cosell say about Bryce that you found so lacking in praise? I’ve seen plenty of games with Mark as color commentator and he skewered Young on his comments

interesting podcast. Did my best to summarize 1 none understand why rico isnt getting 100% of snaps 2 dalton is seasoned veteran and for this game, could he more of a challenge for bills than young Better arm and Familiar with mcdermott defense. Has seen everything Impressed with Tet and Panthers do not have bad receivers and impressed by size 3 not impressed with bills passed game and Allen is being held back because of it. bills do not seem to have a consistent vertical passing game as in past. No intermediate More Short passes for YAC and that hurts Allen Could be to control pace and tempo of the game given the bills defensive weaknesses Need intermediate to stretch zone defenses 4 bills have several returning from DL from suspension this game on defense that could help 5 atlanta beat bills offense by blitzing and played ton of man coverage. No structured intermediate passing game for bills Bills had no answer for atlanta defense either blitzes and man to man coverage Rushed 5 or more on over 30% if Allen’s drop backs 6 compliments the panthers defense Up and coming but has issues. Last in pressure on qb Last in DVOA and coverage of TEs

give me a break … ‘nuanced debates ‘ Thanks for the laugh

Im just sharing what reputable reporters are saying people see what they want to see but his numbers do not lie the team is winning in spite of him. Winning is good i do not see Young in the Nfl in 10 years and i dont see him being the panthers qb in 2 years until then, i hope for the best with him i want the franchise i support to have a better answer at qb

Summation. 1. What do the Panthers miss with Young out ? For a number 1 draft pick and supposedly a franchise qb.,if he is missed, can the areas be quantified ? 2 Vegas set the line of Bills -7 That line was set before the panthers jets game finished and Bryce was hurt The line didn’t move once Vegas knew he was out. Vegas views the panthers minimally different with Bryce as without him

Had the Bills not lost 2 in a row, very unBill like, plus coming off a bye, I’d fancy the Panthers chances more than i do desperate teams….

yep Very sad day for the franchise when we lost those two…what might have been

I’ve heard that Vegas looks at only 3 things when predicting games and setting the line 1. HC 2 Qb 3. Injuries If that flash card is true, then it is the Bills to win Add to it, , the Bills have lost 2 in a row and coming off a bye They cannot afford to allow the Patriots to hang around by getting a 3rd loss. That does not bode well for Carolina to me though 1. it is all on the Panthers oline. If Lewis returns at full strength, and perform at a high level, huge. 2 the defense needs to pressure and spy on Allen. Stop Allen and you stop the Bills He is their biggest threat he will make plays but make him pay for every single one 3. Canales, lord have mercy, for the love of god, don’t overthink this…start Rico, run Rico and no trick plays… START RICO. RUN THE BALL WITH RICO. RUN THE BALL WITH RICO Control,the clock Keep Allen on the bench IF YOU ARE GOING To PASS, PLAY ACTION ON FIRST DOWN If 1 thru 3 happen Panthers 30. Bills 28 and joy reigns in the Queen City

At some point, to go forward, they must have have a threat of a vertical game The lack of one won’t get a nfl team far in 2025 unless Dalton can give them a boost, 7 and10 max wins possible but they must address that issue in the off season

How much of a heater is needed to throw 5 to 10 yards not trying to piss in anybody’s cornflakes but Bryce’s time in the nfl isn’t exactly made up of the vertical game The Panthers future for this season, offensively, is dependent on that oline if they can continue to run that ball to take up time, with enough time for the needed longer throw, they will be fine pray for oline health as best they can be, and for the love of god, drop Sanders and keep Tommy and Mitch in to block

Yes… Bombs away Against the 31st defense against the run. The Canales way im more concerned about the oline then Dalton. if Lewis is back and capable of playing at high level, they need to run that ball to hell and back. If it is Corbett or Zavala, no Both of those guys need to be gone after this year Too injury prone Corbett has been kept 2 years longer than he should’ve been and Zavala, not that great even when healthy if Lewis isn’t back, then at least put Corbett back to his natural RG and Brady back to his natural left side the bills are coming off a bye and a horrible, non Josh Allen like, performance. The Bills offense won’t do that a second time. If the Panthers can run that ball successfully and keep it out of Josh’s hands and the Panthers defense can contain Allen’s running and not give him time to use his arm, they have a chance My belief, the Panthers oline will determine this game as they impact both teams Ball control to control the clock and the Bills and keep that defense rested

It is supposed to be pro football, the best of the best if you want feel good 24x7, watch high school football they aren’t millionaires, both players and coaches, playing a game the expectation should be they look like it

Dave Canales. If this turns out to be an embarrassing loss will be on you you and no one else

I just see a jets TD coming and panthers too impotent to score

Best players play and because he chose loyalty, that dynamic run game is finished particularly with Corbett I mean, how many runs to Brady’s side va Corbett. What r they doing

No no no Minnie Mouse

Why are we putting the ball in young’s hands why why

That is the point of my sarcasm

Can use the same excuses for him that are given to Bryce
