Official Panthers - Giants Gameday Thread

Today the Carolina Panthers seek to help solidify their bid for the first seed in the NFC playoffs. Having the road to the Superbowl go through Charlotte would be an amazing accomplishment. 

Not to mention being home for all of January would be a wonderful Christmas gift to me personally. 

Keys to Panthers Victory

- Rattle Eli Manning early. Eli is coming off a pretty good game. The Panthers need to get the streaky quarterback off his game. Be aggressive early, knock him down. You won't really confuse him much with disguised coverages, but he can be physically worn down. 

- Go deep, then go deep again. Ted Ginn is coming on strong at just the right time. There will be ample opportunity to burn NYG today with long bombs. At the very least it will open up the running game a bit more... which takes me to my next key...

- Stick to the run. The Panthers really need to see what they have in Cameron Artis-Payne. I would love to see him get at least 10 carries today. Jonathan Stewart's health is not guaranteed and Fozzy Whitaker is not an every down back. I would love to see what the SEC's leading rusher a year ago can do out there.

I have the feeling that Tolbert will get the majority of todays runs.  Rivera doesnt use his fresh meat until he is forced to.

I agree with you on Tolbert getting plenty of carries.  I'm just hoping we blow them out like like we did ATL last week b/c if that happens, we will get to see a lot of CAP.

    • Excellent post. Before yesterday I hadn't posted in about 2 years. I just popped in every once in a while to get updates. A couple of guys around here are excellent at that and one is funny as heck. Then there's MHS831, when I do pop in I always check out your threads. I really appreciate your takes and how you explain them and also the effort you put into it. Plus, your a class act.  I also came here to mention the UDFA C I understand we signed. I've read that he was ranked in the 6th round for what that's worth. He had a solid career and has traits that are special. He needs to be developed but he has potential and his strength is run blocking and his athleticism fits what we want to do offensively I think.  I think he was a late draft target that they believed was safe so they drafted other players and picked him up after the draft instead. If so, that's smart and very disciplined.    Here's a report on his strengths: SCOUTING REPORT: STRENGTHS Raym is a work in progress with high-end physical traits. He’s extremely light on his feet for a 300-pounder, a natural knee bender who plays with balance and leverage. Solid positional run blocker who flashes the nasty demeanor and killer instinct scouts covet. Shows a good feel for combo blocks, and Raym displays good quickness and flexibility when moving to the second level, capable of sealing the back side on reach blocks He’s a coordinated athlete who can win at the point of attack in the run game, and he can also move to consistently land blocks at the second level. Has the strong leg drive to create movement at the line of scrimmage, consistently putting defenders on the ground. Finishes and doesn't quit; competitor with a positive attitude and leadership traits that coaches admire. He's a dawg. Badass. I think his skills fit what we want to do too. This kid has the potential to be a stud for us. It's true we didn't draft him but we still got him. So, if it's really a big deal, just imagine that we had an extra 6th and drafted this guy there. He was valued there so it's a good pick. In my mind, we got a good center this draft, even if we didn't draft him. We signed him just the same. 
    • That blows my mind too.  You know your system and the skill sets you covet--you have hours of game tape, you interview, you measure, you test, you weigh, you time--and 25% is the bar?  Now, I know some teams only have 2-3 openings some years, but dang.
    • 25% of day 2/3 picks would be phenomenal.   NFL Draft Pick Bust Rate Remains Very High - Daily Norseman Assuming the 30% includes first round picks, and that a draft success means the play spends significant amounts of time playing for the team that drafted him, a 25% success rate for day 2/3 picks would be well above average.
