Game predictions: Which will be the last team standing...Panthers or Ravens?

Time to look into the crystal ball and get opinions on which team which show up this week. Will It be the team that went 12 ~ 4 last year or the team that got rolled over last weekend. Can they refocus and regroup to get the job done against a team that beat Pittsburgh by 20 points? Can they find a running game? Can they tighten up the defense that forgot that they had a game to play last Sunday night? Time to slap the cobwebs out of their collective brains and get back on the winning track. Notice not a mention of Steve Smith. This game needs to be about beating the Ravens and not make it about him. What do the fabled huddlers believe will be the storyline at around 4 pm Sunday afternoon.....thumbs up or thumbs down?

We will win.

Stop the run, avoid PI on their deep shots, and take care of the ball we win this thing.

Their pass rush is struggling and their secondary is beat up. Cincy and Cleveland moved the ball at will but had to settle for field goals. We have to finish drives.

I think we are the better team. But then again I always think that

If we move the ball first half and score points instead of settling for FG's, we win

 

If we move the ball first half and settle for FG''s, we lose

 

If neither team move that well in a defensive struggle and FG's here and there. I give us about a 55% chance of winning

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
