Official Panthers - Bucs Gameday Thread

Today in the season opener the Panthers take on the Bucs in a divisional mathcup.

 

Where: Raymond James Stadium

 

Kickoff: 4:30

 

TV: FOX

 

Radio: 1110 WBT

 

Twitter: I will be covering the game from the sidelines, follow @CarolinaHuddle on Twitter for updates starting an hour before kickoff.

 

 

FYI: Both Cam Newton and Derek Anderson attended the production meeting yesterday. Highly irregular that backups meet with the FOX folks. I have been saying it all week, it isn't gamesmanship. There is a real chance Cam won't play. We won't know until today.

 

Keys to Panthers Victory:

 

Run the Ball - The Panthers may not have Jonathan Stewart healthy all season. Use him while you can, early and often.

Defensive Scoring - The offense may struggle today, a pick 6 or a fumble recovery in the red zone would help tremendously.

Philly Brown - Could be the difference in this game. Hero or goat? A long return or dropped punt?

 

 

Final Prediction:

 

Carolina impresses in a 24-10 victory over Tampa Bay. Kelvin Benjamin has over 100 yards and a TD.

I kept hearing that the QB decision was going to come out yesterday, which was puzzling, but nothing happened. I got to admit, this whole "Will he play?" suspense is really messing with folks. I expect drama today....lol

 

Rumor, I never believed it.

 

Cam is actually questionable, has been all week. Not sure why that is hard to believe. I am tired of trying to convince people.

 

We won't know for sure if he plays until later today.

I think he'll start but might not finish if he looks uncomfortable.

Or he may not start but will come in if DA doesn't look good.

 

 

At this point nothing will shock me.

 

 

Things I do know from first hand conversations within the org...

 

1. Panthers believe they can win today with DA

2. There is genuine concerns over Cam's ribs, they have been weighing that against point 1 all week long.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
