Official Panthers - Colts Gameday Thread


Montsta

Recommended Posts

The officially official Gameday thread comes from the MFCEO himself, but until he finds the time between taking photos of scantily clad women, this busted ass version is all you get. 

Panthers (6-0) Vs. Colts (3-4)

Bank Of America Stadium

Monday Night Football at 8:30p eastern time

 

The Panthers have the opportunity to cement themselves at the top of the NFC with a 7-0 record, and control their playoff seeding destiny from this point forward. They would also be up a couple games on the Falcons who dropped a game to the Bucs yesterday (lulz you suck Matt Ryan). 

 

Keys To Victory

-Josh Norman must shut down T.Y. Hilton.

And he must do it for a whole 60 minutes. How often have you looked at your fantasy scoreboard and seen T.Y. with 4 points through 3 quarters and then the game is over and he has 26? No comebacks today. Plus I told my wife to sit Hilton in FF so if he goes off, it could make for a bad evening in the Montsta household. 

-Pass Rush needs to pressure Luck

Luck makes bad choices when pressured. I'm talking gas station sushi or me getting my LASIK surgery done through fuging Groupon bad. If KK and the boys can get to him, our second level will feast and this could get out of hand quickly. 

-Cam Newton needs to limit mistakes

I realize that it seems like 90% of Cam's picks come off of Funchess's hands, but even still, he needs to not turn the ball over. Too many games stay close because our offense gives the other team extra opportunities, and if those are limited, again I see this as a statement victory for the Panthers.

I am unofficially here wondering if this thread is the equivalent of tailgating for the real official game day thread?

Yes it is. I'm like a parking lot tailgate whore version of Igo. So he can edit when he's ready or delete all together when the real one begins.

I love your threads Montsta!

but...

If you ever get between me and a smitty basher again I'll do nothing and whine about to myself.

I actually feel like this is the opposite of a trap game if that makes sense... the team seems to have a different attitude right now to me.  Obviously some teams match up differently and all of that, but I see the defense coming out and tearing it up.

Yea, I agree. I don't really think this team is subject to the "trap game" this year. If we lose, it's because we didn't execute, not because we weren't prepared.

I'm really more worried about the receivers that aren't TY. We haven't really played any teams with more than one good receiver. Evans/Jackson is a decent combo if the QB doesn't suck, but TY/Moncrief/Johnson combo will show how good our secondary really is as a whole.

    • Dang, we might not be able to create the same magic from last year!
    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade. 
    • Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.
