I'd love for them to run that wide 9 against us.  Maybe that'll finally really open up the running game for us.  We're stout in the middle of our OL, the wide 9 is weak up the gut.  I like our chances against that.  If we can establish the running game, we can use play action to help out the OTs against the pass rush.

Philly definitely presents some challenges with their uptempo, quick hitting offense when clicking is tough to stop. We've seen McCown throw for 300 (without Luke) using a similar quick passing scheme. Philly has some guys that can move in their front 7 as well. Barwin, Cox, Alonso, Kendricks are all pretty athletic.

 

Thankfully our OL is a bit different this time around. Last year in Philly the OL consisted of Bell, Amini and Chandler... Cam stood no chance. It also didn't help that Deangelo fumbled on the second play of the game. It'll be interesting to see how the Panthers come out coming off their huge win in Seattle.

Doubtful Alonso or Kendricks see the field this week. Alonso hasn't played a full game since week 1 and Kendricks has been out the last couple games with a hamstirng. DeMeco Ryans might be out as well with a hamstring but I think he hopes to play.

Earlier today Les Bowden reported that both guys were practicing (which for Alonso shocked me because I read last week he's still a few weeks away) but PFT tweeted out an article saying Bill Davis  isn't planning on having either Sunday which would be a huge plus for Carolina.

its funny. last week a gulls fan was talkinv about us being frauds becaus  we haven't played any teams with a winning record, but seattle didn't have one either so they fit the narrative that fan was running with.

this week an eagles fan talks about us being frauds because we havent faced any good QBs tbis year (which i agree), but they have bradford. 

do they not see what they are doing?

First undisputeably good QB we face is Rodgers. Only thing Bradford's close to leading the league in is INTs. He's tied with Stafford for 2nd with 9 behind Peyton's 10. And there's nothing we can do about that and it's not our problem to fix. They need to scout talent better, draft better, make better trades, and sign better free agents to better contracts. That's their prerogative how hard to work at those things, and if they choose to go in the direction they have, it's not our prerogative to apologize for having more points on the scoreboard when the clock shows 0:00

Let's make him sole owner of the number 1 spot. 3 more INTs on Sunday night.

Was talking about all the poo QBs we've faced and are going to face, but I like where your mind's at. Time for Bene to start chipping (no pun intended) away at J_No24's lead in pick-6

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By OldhamA · Posted

      I think you have to factor in that we're still not an attractive proposition for Head Coaches. You're not getting the cream of the crop if you fire Canales a year after winning the NFC South, especially considering the situation he walked into.

      Yeah, I was about to say I hope he's doing okay health-wise because he's not looking good in that pic.

      By ncsfinest21 · Posted

      Honestly, I dont  think he should be on the hot seat yet. A bad start to next year, then yes. Despite our mistakes on play calling this past season, we played better than anticipated overall. Bryce showed improvement and maturity (although still not nowhere close to our expectations). Better record and 2-15 to 5-12 to 8-9. Despite what we feel the stats dont lie we are improving by 3 wins a year. Could 11-6 be our expectation. That's a high bar but at the rate we are going, thats what its looking like. We all want to see a 5-12 to a 13-4 record but we are methodically moving up. Success doesnt happen overnight (well in most cases).  IMO we are struggling mostly on the defensive end. LB and edge are our biggest weakness. I see Bryce making improvements (even though I was a Bryce hater) next year. Biggest concern is LT on offense. How to fix this? We need a big name edge or to trade up and get a big name edge or LB and pick up one in FA and draft one. Also if in the 3rd we can pick up a TE. Dont know if Sanders is the answer or Tremble (even though I love Trembles blocking and power after the catch). If these two can get their footwork together they would be great. Maybe all they need is a better TE coach. And if Brooks can stay healthy and be the back we thought he could be, man that would be great
