2012 - Cam fugs up a throw to a wide open Ben Hartstock to go up 17-16. Can't Have that

 

2013 - Deangelo Williams fumbles on Carolina 8 yard line. Can't have that

 

2014 - KB drops a TD pass to go up 10-0 in the 2nd quarter. Can't have dropped passes especially dropped TD passes

 

These are all missed redzone opportunities that the Panthers killed themselves on, in all 3 games where 7 points could have won the game

Yep...and had the lead going into the 4th quarter in all of those games.

We just have to stop hurting ourselves when we play them. We can't keep making the same mistakes. I believe we have a huge shot at winning this game. We just have to show up and be discipline. We have to be tougher and more physical. We have to execute this game this time around offense and defense.

Isn't it interesting that we beat our chest at how close these games have been and each one has been at home? This is going to be an entirely different atmosphere on the road and in the playoffs. We can't be close, we have to be perfect.

 

Part of my confidence about the game (and yeah, obviously, I'm coming at this from a different angle than y'all) is that it's in Seattle. Since Wilson took over at QB, the Seahawks have scored about 28 points on average at home. That number is obviously skewed by a couple of blowouts like the 58-0 beatdown of the Cards in 2012, but I don't think anyone will dispute that Seattle's usually a much better team at home than they are on the road.

 

So while the Panthers have been a very tough matchup for the Seahawks the last 3 years, I think the fact that each game has been an early start in Charlotte has had an impact on the scores. Yeah, we've never scored more than 16 points on the current era Panthers, but we've only been held below 17 points twice at home in the last 3 years. Meanwhile, we've held opponents under 17 fifteen times in that timeframe (and under 10 points 9 times). I'm not suggesting this game is going to be won by double-digits or anything, but I honestly think the change in venue is going to have an impact.

Don't forget the botched exchange by Cam and Stewart that was a turnover on the 10 yard line earlier this year.

We dominated that game in the 1st half and had virtually nothing to show for it

I feel like you can say that about most of our games. We can certainly move the ball it's coming away with the points that needs to be fixed

      Canales doesn't sound all the way sold on Bryce

      I enjoy being truthful. Although that means being unbiased. Which most on here are incapable of being unbiased.

      Giannis

      By Raleigh PF · Posted

      It looks like the Bucks and Giannis are headed for a divorce. He says he's ready to play and the Bucks say that he has told them he isn't. It really doesn't matter except that it likely means the end for Giannis in Milwaukee. He's 31 years old, but still an elite producer.  So, as GM, would you go after him this offseason? Remember, the Hornets have two 1st round picks this year and potentially THREE first round picks next year. What would a trade look like?

      Some homers' opinions of the OTs that we may realistically be able to get at 19

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I agree with you, if all things are equal--assuming we are on the same page as to what that means.  If a DT and OT are there at 19 and you have them equal, which do you take? The DT would be rotational and get 25 snaps a game or so, and the OT is probably a reserve for most of the season.  What if Walker plays out of his mind and Ickey comes back strong? To me, there are just too many variables at T and Morgan met the needs for 2 starters.  Nothing about that screams lets "go OT in round 1" to me. I could see an Edge or a DT at 19 before I see OT.  I could see a TE or S before an OT--and I (personally) would rather have an OT over DT, Edge, TE, or S--but I do not see the logic.  In fact, CB is a position that resembles OT--who do we have behind our starters and are we happy with Smith-Wade?  A CB would be on the field more than a reserve OT.  How is the Walker at LT situation different than the the Bryce situation? He is basically on a 1-year deal and if he is injured, Forsythe becomes Pickett.  Would you take Simpson in the draft?  Dont get me wrong--I usually agree with you  and I get your point.  I am an OL guru--but I just do not see this particular group of Tackles making us better than Walker.  In addition, I think we can address OT once the Ickey situation clears up.  Short arms, poor run blocking, issues with strength--I am simply not impressed with the OTs.  For clarity, "developmental" refers to players who are still a year or two away from starting.  We are all developmental, but there are prospects who need a season to transition to the pro game. I see 1--maybe 2 OTs who could step into a starting role right now. In college, for example, taking snaps under center requires a different approach than blocking for the shotgun.  There is less to learn if you play a position that does not require much adjustment to transition to the NFL.
