Truth be known, I actually like Packers fans. Typically they are some of the most pleasent and some of the more knowledgeable fans in the NFL. My trip to Green Bay last year left me with the most favorable impression of a franchise and their fan base of all away games (Philly being the opposite end of that spectrum). 

That said, they are next up on the Panthers revenge tour of 2015. 

Here is what the Packers fans are saying

Quote

Here's the keys to beating the Panthers

1. Double cover Greg Olsen every play

2. Keep Cam Newton in the pocket

3. Throw opposite Josh Norman every play

Panthers don't have the weapons Denver does and have a QB with no accuracy. Just use the same game plan we used on them last year and we'll smoke em.

Quote

Panthers 21 Packers 20

Wanted to pick us, but after what I watched last night why should I? Carolina has a great defense and all of a sudden this is offense can't do anything the past six quarters . How cDNA Cobb not get"separation?" guys quick as a cat. The offense needs and overhaul starting with letting Janis play more if guys can't get "separation" and using Starks more as Lacy looks out of shape a slow.

Defense? Meh. Just pray they don't give up 400 yds passing and 100 yds rushing to cam which I can easily see happening.

This Carolina team is garbage out there, Luck has wide open men in the field and missing them, what a big old overrated 6-0 team if I ever saw one. Only winning the game right now cuz the Colts are calling dumb plays.

(Above quote is from a guy named "packerfanincarolina".)

There´s a lot of optimism here and it seems a lot of posters underestimate the Panthers defense. They´re the only team with a better opponents passer rating allowed than the Broncos. While I expect the Packers to play way better than vs. Denver this game isn´t a cakewalk by any means.

 

and from the  Packer Chatters forum.... 

 

Quote

The Panthers have two of the best linebackers in the league in Thomas Davis and Luke Kuechly. Their secondary is OK but you can pick on safety, Harper in the passing game. I would not say pass rushing is this teams strength, although Kawan Short is getting penetration up the middle and must be handled. If our receivers can't get separation from Charles Tillman who is 100 years old, we've got serious issues. 

None of their receivers should scare you, but Ted Ginn can get deep in a hurry. I would not call him a good receiver though. The go to guy is Greg Olson the TE, and we all know we've struggled with TE's so he's got to be contained. Control Newton in the read option and slow down the run game and we should win this game IMO. Caveat, I thought we'd whip Denver too.

Cam scares me.  He's a big game QB that's is probably the most talented and dangerous runner in the NFL (at QB).  He's also a guy who can fling the ball around (his career best in regards to passing yards came against us).  Our defense has been a dumpster fire in the last 2 weeks so it would at all surprise me to see Carolina have their best offensive game of the year a lot like San Diego and Denver did.

One thing for sure, Carolina is going to be a tough and important game.  Hopefully the team decides to show up.

 

Sunday is going to be a tough game. If Ryan Kalil and Andrew Norwell can't play, the edge may go to the Packers. The Panthers will need to be able to constantly move the chains on offense and keep the defense rested. If not, you may see another 4th quarter letup from exhaustion by the defense again this week.

Who are the Packers? 

Seriously, They are likely the best team we will face all season, but there is something about this season.......I was a Skins fan until 95 and all of the SB runs the Skins made I had the same feeling about them as I do about this team. You know they are going to show up and confident they can win. Will the Pack beat these Panthers? Possibly, but I'm not worried.

It's funny how we've been hearing the same " they're garbage, they're overrated, they have no playmakers "all season... yet somehow this overrated garbage team has managed to stay undefeated. 

While im not calling for a Carolina blowout win, I believe we have the defense to contain Rodgers and keep it close into the 4th, and that's where the wildcard in Newton comes into play.

I apologize for the comments dissing your team. Your defense can certainly shut us down. If we're not up for this game were going to get killed.

Don't worry about it. We just print them off each week and send them to the our Panthers insider and he puts the comments on the bulletin board in the locker room.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
