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.

      Okay gentlemen, REAL talk...

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Said Bryce is part of the wins and plays a key position. Not the same as saying he's the key to the wins. But also not denying he plays a role in them because...well, he did. Even if you limit his contributions to the  game winning drives in the 4th quarter, those still count. And yes, he's improved. but saying that doesn't equate to saying he's good enough to put the franchise label on him. It's just a simple acknowledgement that he's better than he used to be (to what degree is debatable). As to his initial expectations, I'll just say stats aren't the only thing I don't care about. What he is matters way more than what he was expected to be. And what is he? He's what you referenced, a mid-tier quarterback. Not the "worst in the league" or "worst ever" as some claim. That's just hyperbole.  Lots of teams have those. Very few teams have elite ones. And I wouldn't bet on next year's draft having a supply of those either. And again, stats. We used to have a number of folks who bandied about some of Delhomme's stats, Newton's stats, etc. But lets look at a few of those... What metric do you prefer? Yards, perhaps? Well, if those are key then Jared Goff, Sam Darnold and Bo Nix are all doing better than Baker Mayfield right now.  The second best quarterback in the league? Dak Prescott. And Young? Well, he's outpacing CJ Stroud, Lamar Jackson, Tua Tagavailoa and even Aaron Rodgers. Prefer touchdowns? Cool. On that front, Jared Goff is tied for third in the league with Drake Maye, leading Rodgers, Mayfield. Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen among others. Bryce is 15th in the league here, just a single score shy of Rodgers, Mayfield, Sam Darnold, Daniel Jones and Josh Allen.  Ahead of Tagavailoa, Trevor Lawrence, Caleb Williams, and Jackson. Interceptions? Holy hell, Bryce has fewer interceptions than Sam Darnold, Trevor Lawrence and, again... Josh Allen. Does that mean I can go out and post on X that Bryce has better ball security than Allen? But wait, are some of these stats...misleading? Or perhaps...out of context? Ya know, it seems like they kinda are. Weird, huh 🤔

      ESPN guys talk Bryce fifth year option

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      It's how we ended up with Brian Burns and not Greg Little in the 1st. Dan Snyder overruled his entire staff and took Dwayne Haskins RIP. If Burns had been the selection like many expected, Hurney had already said he was taking Little at 16. That would have brought his 1st round success rate down a few pegs. Woof!
