Another fan base thinking outdated ways are how you stop Cam....

pressure Cam and he will falter? Doesn't seem like any opponent has a clue how crazy good Cam has been the last couple seasons under pressure.  It ain't 2012.   Last two seasons Cam has been one of the best in the NFL when pressured. 

As far as running at us.  The Gore style RBs are the ones we always seem to contain.  It is the speeder RBs we tend to bottle up and allow the one or two big runs that always throw are defensive efforts out of whack 

Pressure up the middle is definitely the best way to get after Cam. That's why they said they should run(A-gap) blitz. Up the middle pressure is when he starts back-footing really high throws and and tries to back out of the pocket and can take huge losses if he gets sacked. Luckily the middle is exactly where the strength of our line is located and their LB's are garbage so I don't expect much at all from them if they do try to come at him from there.

This isn't about what Colts fans are saying... but an interesting stat from Peter King about why Panthers should win tonight.   I wasn't really seeing another gameday thread where I could post this...
 

Quote

 

Take away the glitzy quarterbacks tonight, look at the gritty running games, and you see another reason why Carolina should be 7-0 shortly before midnight in Charlotte.

• Total rushing yards, past 10 regular-season games

Panthers: 204, 135, 133, 119, 172, 105, 194, 209, 123, 271.  
Colts: 75, 120, 110, 60, 133, 93, 64, 64, 1*, 110.

*Not a typo. 10 carries, 1 rushing yard against Dallas last December.

• Average rushing yards per game, past 10 regular-season games

Panthers: 166.5.
Colts: 83.0.

The Panthers have rushed for double the yards—almost precisely—of the Colts over the past 10 games. So even after importing Frank Gore and Todd Herremans in the offseason so Indianapolis would be more competitive on the ground, add “construction of a running game” to the myriad jobs GM Ryan Grigson has on his plate to get this team back to the top of the AFC.

well, the Kalil lose will be interesting.  Both in pass and run.  Stewart had also been doing a lot of underrated dirty work running behind the C/G.

Anyone nervous the Colts are going to come out firing?

 

Everyone in that building is accustomed to having their taints licked by everyone else...well other than the owner.  Just a hunch, I think that they come out slinging it to try to get a lead and make us throw more than we want.

They won't be able to run against us. Gore is not his old self, and even his old self would still struggle to run on us. Their Offensive line is also suspect. This means Luck will be slinging it. Yes he's struggled this year, But Andrew Luck is a good quarterback and capable of big games. we need to respect that. can't give him all day to throw so i think the pressure from our Dline will make him dance around and throw inaccurate passes. Hilton will be neutralized by Norman. He'll start trying to force things and this is where i see us getting a few turnovers. Our Offense will be fine. it's already much better than advertised. they have no defense. 31-17 panthers.

I think the Panthers would be ok with this. Our whole gameplan usually revolves around stopping the run and forcing the pass.  There defense will be the reason the Panthers win, they are going to have to control Cam and our run game. That's not going to happen.

 

27-10 Panthers.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
