After their Monday night win against a bad Dolphins team, the New York Giants fans and media are feeling like world beaters. 

First, a quick review of the Panthers vs the blundering NFC East so far this season... 

 

Philadelphia Eagles - October 25 

Philly fans - "Double Olsen, Stack the box"

Result - Panthers 27 Eagles 16

 

Washington Redskins - November 22

Redskins fans - "Double Olsen, Stack the box"

Result - Panthers 44 - Redskins 16

 

Dallas Cowboys - November 26

Cowboys fans - "Double Olsen, Stack the box"

Result - Panthers 33 Cowboys 14

 

And now here come the New York Giants...

But the truth is, the Giants are not a good football team. They are an average football team with two good play makers. 

Eli Manning against the Dolphins looked good, I must admit. He was stepping into throws nicely, and got the ball out decisively. When the hot an cold Manning is on the warmer side, he is a threat. 

Odell Beckham Jr is a talent. He is basically a slightly faster Deandre Hopkins, who the Panthers faced in week 2. Hopkins was held to 5 receptions and 53 yards. 

The Giants have exactly one path to victory this week while trying to keep up with the #1 scoring offense in the NFL .... 

Move OBJ around and exploit the injuries at corner the Panthers have had. 

OBJ won't win against Josh Norman. Norman, having just shut down Julio Jones, won't have much issue with OBJ. But move OBJ into the slot, and suddenly it is Colin Jones or Cortland Finnegan covering OBJ.... not a favorable match up for the Panthers to say the least. 

The Carolina Panthers will have their hands full this week setting in place a defensive game plan. 

The Giants defense isn't much of a concern. They are currently last in the league in yards given up per game, at 418. Even worse than the New Orleans Saints... yikes. I expect the Panthers to exceed their 32 point average this game. 

In short, if the Panthers can keep OBJ in check this week, it won't be close.

LOL at the Daily News front page.  So typical!

A bit worried about our secondary injuries and OBJ in the slot.  But at least we've seen Cam can win a big offensive shoot out, having just done so against Brees.  So, I'm confident the Panthers got this.  But we can't let down. (so cliche... yet so true)

Kinda like the hype around Seattle for beating an atrocious Ravens team and suddenly they are just world beaters

im sorry, if Jimmy Claussen is the QB ...well we know the rest 

Panthers might as well get used to being on top and teams bringing their best as to win is to be hated by those who don't...ask the Patriots so they need to rise to the challenge and learn to relish the hate.

speaking of hate, Rodney Harrison is a total dick

Not even close.....Seattle is a very good team.  The Giants are a bad team.

      What do you suggest we make threads on? We have the worst record in the NFL since Tepper bought the team and this staff and a majority of these players will be gone next season.

      You Done with Morgan Yet?

      Too much is made about the trade that never was. At that time Burns was the ONLY legit pass rusher we had on the team. If you had got rid of him you who was going to supply the pass rush? I think at that time he was viewed as cornerstone of the team going forward. Even now he's still only 27. And, we still have not added a pass rusher to replace him. I would have made more sense to try get get them to take Derrick Brown. Burns has more sacks in a season than Brown has had in 5 seasons. Those picks would have been in different years so we would have only had one extra pick in each year. And, let's be honest. You see how this team has drafted over the years. We used #1 picks in Bryce Young and XL. Do you really think those picks would have made a difference on this team?

      Been done. Very limited upside. Most of his positives are based in nostalgia.  It was always going to be a rough ride for whoever signed up for it considering the situation.
