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.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
