The Carolina Panthers have two opponents this week.

Dallas Cowboys

NFL officials

This game will absolutely be called in favor of the Cowboys. There is no doubt of that fact. The Cowboys defeating an undefeated team on Thanksgiving led by Tony Romo.

That is a NFL executives dream scenerio for ratings and popularity for the busiest shopping weekend of the year. Think of all the Cowboys merch. Think of the TV ratings the week after. It is far and away what would benefit them the most.

So, this is what the Panthers need to do.

Win

BIG

Blow them out. Do not let the Cowboys stay in the game. Do not give a few non calls or terrible calls the chance to determine the game.

Because I promise you they will.

After a week where the NFL officials actually helped us, I'm fully expecting a frustrating game by the officials come Thursday night.

I'm with Igo though, we need to come out and continue our fast start mentality, and then push the gas pedal to the floor.

Really really excited to get CJ back! That rotation is gonna be disgusting!

if its going to take a big effort for carolina to be focused this week, its going to be even more so for Dallas.  Carolina has depth and a good rotation.  They also ended the game early for some starters.  Theres no doubt in my mind carolina comes in well prepared for this game.  The cowboys however may fall part on national tv.  which would be glorious.

I was at the stadium yesterday...and every time we got one of these calls our way, I feel creeped out...something felt weird.  We never get these calls...Twilight Zone ish.

Then I realized we were playing the Boyz on Thursday...it all made sense...

 

It was the set up...

 

Bring it NFL...Bring it Zebras...WE  SHALL  OVERCOME!

I have been fearing this game since it came on the schedule.  I think they scheduled it this way because Hardy was supposed to come off suspension this game too.  (of course they changed it)

The track record of Carolina in regular season games is chocked full of B.S. Calls

Kick their ass and Kick it hard.

Don't be surprise to see a hold call on every long run we get.

Been thinking the same thing for a few weeks now...  we will have our work cut out for us.  My biggest worry with the officiating is that they'll do so much early that change the way we play and, in turn, change the whole dynamic of the game, much like that group of zebra jackoffs in the 2013 playoff game.  That was just disgusting...  

But honestly, there is something about this team that tells me no matter what, we'll be fine.  Very mentally tough group we have.

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      They traded away their 1st next year also to get James Pearce Jr. Really hope this blows up in the Falcons face. I don't care how it happens, I just want to win the division this year. Zero sympathy for other team's issues. And our pass rush looks like it needs all the help it can get.

      I would have released him this season, tbh and worked with Christensen out there.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By Seltzer · Posted

      10/10. We're due for some good luck, and I think this team is much better than what we've had the last 2 seasons. Defensive injuries could derail us b/c our depth there is still questionable. Still worried about the pass rush getting pressure without blitzing. Pleasantly surprised by the secondary and run defense.  Dan Morgan has done a lot to resurrect this roster from the deplorable position Fitterer left it in by showing some scouting chops with hitting on these guys drafted in the later rounds or UDFAs. Lathan Ransom & Corey Thornton both look like they fit this scheme and the NFL isn't too big for them.  I'm as excited for the rookie trifecta of T-Mac, Scourton, and Princely as I can remember. On paper, this offense is the most talented since 2021, maybe 2017, and maybe 2015. None of that means this team will produce any better, but this team has offensive talent & depth like we have rarely had in team history. If you don't believe me, go Google it. We've had some awful offensive collections overall in many years, to varying degrees mitigated by superstar talents like Steve Smith, Christian Mccaffrey, or Cam Newton.  I honestly think the collective offensive talent in 2025 may be better, but Cam was so otherworldly in 2015 & 2017 that he covered any flaws. Seriously, though, Cam doesnt get enough love for 2017. I think that may have been his best season. In general, Cam doesn't get enough respect IMHO. Both in college and in the NFL, Cam took teams that without him would have had no chance and won. True definition of a guy who elevated his team. To be clear, I am in no way am I saying this team will be better than 2017 or 2015. My point is that the offensive talent is there on offense if Bryce can unlock it.  I've been a Bryce supporter, but there are no excuses not to perform with this group. This isn't the disaster we gave him in 2023 or a new scheme like in 2024 where I think he hadn't mentally removed from his rookie season to start. I dont know how you couldnt be excited about that. And we still compete in a division that isn't insurmountable. I got got in 2023 like most of us in buying into the team propaganda, but in general, I think I'm pretty realistic about the team. I knew in my heart we would be bad last year. I wasnt expecting the defense to be that bad or Bryce to start off that poorly, but I had no expectations whatsoever for making the playoffs. And I genuinely think we will be competitive all year this season. I think we win 8-9 games and compete for the division. I think the ceiling is 11 wins, and the floor is 7. The good news is after next week, we will all be proven right or proven wrong. Keep Pounding!
