Nortman and Gano will be key this week vs SEA

Recommended Posts

Nortman will need to do a good job this weekend of not kicking in Tyler Lockett's direction this week. The guy has multiple return TDs this year and is proven to be a dangerous threat. Nortman and the ST unit will need to do their work in shutting this guy down in a week where they really need to step up. 

Gano will also be a key factor because it will be very hard to score TDs against this Seattle defense. If Gano can hit his FGs this Sunday, then we have a much better chance at winning this game. He will also need to continue to do his things of not giving the returner a chance on kick-offs, he's been good at that so far. 

Good play from Nortman, Gano, and the ST unit this weekend could help us to get a huge win on the road this weekend.

makes me think of that Hester punt return and Ron talking post game about how they had a good plan to kick to him and defend it.

how about there are just certain guys you don't kick to.  Simple and plain.  I'd rather kick a punt short forcing a fair catch the defend a return.

We are not going to beat Seattle with FG's.   If we don't score touchdowns it will be the same as all the other regular season games we have played against Seattle in the Cam Newton era.

we could of won some of those games....if we didn't fumble and do self inflicting junk.

you ain't gonna go into Seattle and throw 3 TDs.  You gotta win ugly.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
