Again at home the Wise Guys have the Panthers 3 to 3.5 point favorites.

We will be facing an organization fighting tooth and nail trying to save their 2015 Season.

Sunday we're going to need to put points on the board all day long. Another nail biter awaits.

Go Panthers!

We win this handily tbh, no im not buying for a second "they will be tough to beat because of desparation." Saints suck on the road, and hell now suck at home apparently, they just suck. Im taking Carolina 3 pts and running to the bank. 

They have noone to fear on D, crap O line, no Jimmy Graham, we beat the Saints two years ago handily when they went 11-5 and was a far better Saints team then they are now. 

We will coast to victory and I have no doubt

Spread should be Panthers minus 10. 

This team is terrible. And there's not any quick fixes laying around. I expect a good ass whipping next week.

Nah I think it will be close. Saints will be desperate knowing that losing this game could mean the beginning of the end for Brees and Payton. I think the Panthers win but I'm expecting it to be a dogfight.

I'd be less worried if they were 1-1. Nothing good comes from playing with desperate animals.

I completely agree.  Brees is talented enough to win a game by himself, but he can't do it if he's hurt like some are saying right now.  Next week is another business game, take care of business and move to 3-0.  Best part is I don't remember any major injuries, Cotchery came back in the game.  What's nice is that we know we have a very solid backup MLB, one that I'd guess would start for 15 or so teams in the NFL.  Get Star and Luke back next week and we're looking solid on defense.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
