Official Panthers - Chiefs Gameday Thread


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Who: Carolina Panthers vs Kansas City Chiefs

 

Where: Bank of America Stadium, Charlotte NC

 

When: 8:00pm

 

TV: FOX

 

Radio: 1110WBT

 

Twitter: Follow @CarolinaHuddle for tweets from the sidelines starting an hour before kickoff.

 

 

The Carolina Huddle Chat Room will be open during the game.

 

 

 

Players to watch:

 

Cam Newton: Newton has been running in practice and appears to be 100%. I don't expect him to run tonight however. Look for him to throw the ball away to avoid contact with defensive players. At least, I hope he does.

 

Philly Brown: If Brown can control all punts well and get a nice gain or two, he will solidify his place on the roster.

 

Kony Ealy: Ealy was back at practice on Thursday. If he plays tonight it will be interesting to see how he builds on last week's impressive performance

 

Offensive Line: Can they improve on the poor run blocking last week?

 

Jonathan Stewart: After sitting much of training camp, can he provide the spark in the offense's running game and remain healthy?

I'm already tachycardic just thinking about it!

I'm really going to be pulling for Philly tonight. Lord knows we need him to make us forget about a guy whose last name rhymes with Finn.

LAWD help us. Let's just do an all out block each time and pray for results.

Picking up new furniture today. Will be nice to watch the game on tonight.  Next week picking up new furniture and a 60" tv for the man cave.  I know, I know...I have my priorities backwards, should have furnished the man cave first.  But in order to get what I wanted downstairs I had to make the wife happy. Playing the long game.  It's a marathon not a sprint.

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
