Cakewalk...

According to Chris Simms, we'll beat Arizona but Seattle's matchup against us will be a cakewalk for the defending Super Bowl Champs. Apparently, he doesn't know how well we've played them in year's past. Additionally, he should know as a former player that no game is ever a cakewalk.

I don't expect any analysts/media heads to pick us for any game past Arizona.  Even if we beat the wheels off of Arizona, the story will be because of their 3rd string QB, and their defense faltering in the last 1/4 of the season.  If we win Sat., nobody will be too surprised.  Anything after that will be shockers.

What a cakewalk huh? This team is much better than the October team that lost 13 - 9. Much better. How much better? The October Panthers lost to the Saints 28 - 10. The December Panthers beat the Saints 41- 10. It's all there for the taking. Cakewalk my ass.

how about we be humble as we head into our matchup against arizona.

Good god some of you will have a meltdown if we lose

 

Last week I said this same thing and was condescendingly told "I didn't know fans played."

While obvious, it is idiotic to look past your next opponent. I saw and heard SO many Falcons fans wondering who their Wild Card opponent would be as if they didn't even have to face us...and look at what happened.

 

I say everyone needs to focus on this game, I've seen too much in the media about the inevitable upset (which normally sets your team up for failure.) but hey "we don't play."

      This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY.

      The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.

      I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
