So...the Titans, other than being in the worst division in the NFL

Their defense is pretty good but Rivera knows how to corral rookie QBs

I was comparing the defensive stats using the Sporting Charts matchup tool:

http://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/teams/matchup/364-carolina-panthers-vs-336-tennessee-titans/

Interestingly, the Titans rank quite a bit ahead of us in terms of fewer yards allowed, but we are better in terms of fewer points allowed.

We're doing MUCH better on take aways, and limiting big plays.  Also, our opponents' Red-Zone scoring % (touchdowns) is much lower than Tenn.  We rank 9th, they rank 30th.

I guess this is a pretty good picture of "bend but not break."  We're allowing yards, but limiting the damage on scoring.

I feel like this is the game we finally get our blowout that we don't lose the lead...

The team is obviously focused, they didn't have a day off while playing one of the worst reams we'll play this season. Rivera won't let them underestimate them. IM confident they're going for the kill this game.

I hope the team takes this game seriously, especially since they did just beat a team that we didn't exactly blow out.

Side note: I'm still surprised they didn't take that deal from Eagles with all those picks and players. That would have had them dominant for the next decade IMO

Well yeah, he was playing the Saints.  

Yea and Cam didn't have 370 yards and 4 TDs when we played the Saints vs their backup QB....

Mariota is good and can make teams pay for mistakes...

We better not sleep on the Saints either considering Norman saved that game at the end and that was without Brees.

The Titans are a hungry and underrated team with Marcus Mariota playing QB.  Their defense is actually decent and if Mariota can make some plays this game could be closer than most expect.  I hope we don't get caught sleepwalking in this one because it's definitely a trap game.  The Titans have OWNED the Panthers.  They've only met 4 times since 1996, but every game has been a blowout one way or another.

11/13/2011    Tennessee Titans  @  Carolina Panthers       Titans Win 30-3    
11/04/2007    Tennessee Titans  vs  Carolina Panthers       Titans Win 20-7    
10/19/2003    Tennessee Titans  @  Carolina Panthers       Titans Win 37-17   
11/24/1996    Houston Oilers       vs  Carolina Panthers       Panthers Win 31-6

I never overlook anyone. Don't underestimate anyone, either. This is the NFL and anyone can beat anyone. The 0-15 Lions damn near beat the Packers in Lambeau in 2008. We will have a tough game on our hands and we need to not be cautious or stupid. If we play the way we need to, we'll be 9-0.

The packers weren't that good in 2008...

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
