That said, all Panthers fans should take a moment and realize the Panthers still have at minimum 2 games left in their season, but hopefully will have a  couple more.

Its hard for me to believe our last regular season game is just days away.  Thank goodness we made it to the playoffs or I would really be bummed.

what kind of O line do the Bucs have?

I'm going to say something very unpopular here........but if we don't figure out how to pressure the QB we leave ourselves exposed to be shredded in the secondary.......injuries along with age and lack of speed is catching up with the D line and most importantly the secondary late in the season and hit critical mass starting in the second half of the Giants game.....

Look at the last 6 quarters of how our defense played.........

It going to be like starting over here....

Bucs 27.....gulp!.........Cats 24

The only awful qtr was the final vs the Giants. The Atlanta game was pretty average despite one big play to Jones.

This team will suffer no mental lapse...for two reasons:

1.  Comments by Harper, Coleman, Allen, Rivera and others indicate that the team is refocused and ready to show the world they can be better than they were last Sunday.

2.  The team and coaching staff seemed to be truly touched after returning home from a loss, only to be greeted by tons of fans outside of BOA.  This team truly loves the fans and does not want to let us down.

I expect this team to come out fired up and pissed off.  I expect them to be refocused.  I expect them to play as hard as they ever have before, if not harder, and kick ass.  I expect Cam Newton to solidify his case for the MVP award. 

Panthers - 42

Bucs - 7

We played great defense against the Giants until the final quarter...when our offense stopped pushing the ball and the defense got gassed.  Against the Falcons, we played decent defense most of the game, with the exception of third downs.  Julio in the slot killed us.  Julio in the slot kills everyone.  The guy has 1,700 yard on the season...he didn't just rack up those yards again bad defenses.  He can beat good ones too.

In 15 games, compared to the 15 he played last season, Jones has 23 more catches and 129 more yards. If he gets his average (114+) # of yds. against the Saints, he'll have the #3 season all time for receiving yards. Add another dozen yards and he takes the #2 position after Calvin Johnson (1964 yds. in '12). 

The encouraging part is that we likely won't have to face another receiver (except maybe Gronkowski) that can do to us what Jones did last week. That doesn't mean our pass D doesn't have holes, just that they'll be harder to find going forward.

No, we didn't.  We were bad in the ATL game.  Forget scores.  They dominated time of possession and cruised on us most of the game.

      Kicker

      By TD alt · Posted

      Well, they're both in the same league (if you will). During preseason, Fitz went 3/3 & Sauls went 5/6, but of course Sauls was 4/4 last night (including one 50+). Both were Lou Groza Award finalists. I believe Fitz made two 55+ yarders last season, while Sauls led the nation with three. Fitz was 13/13 (💯) while Sauls was 21/24 (87.5). Fitz was a 3rd-Team AP All-American, while Sauls was a PFF All-American.  Career-wise, Fitz was 58/74 (78.4), while Sauls was 52/64 (81.3). I wish that I could see the attempts and knew the depth of yardage. I wish that we could compare practice kicks during their training camps, but we can't. Maybe someone with a PFF/CFF account can give that Basically it's just a matter of belief I guess. Seeing dude knock down four FGs and go perfect during a pressure-filled game for him is damned impressive if you ask me. I don't believe that Fitzgerald could do that.  That being said, I'd have to know more. I will say that it may be worth mentioning that we seem to like PFF this year and Sauls being a PFF All-American may be notable. Now that being said, the Panthers may not be even considering Sauls.

      Preseason over..2025 predictions

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Ive said it 1000x times on here.  Our 2025 season will be dictated by the first 4 games.  poo the bed there and lose all confidence and momentum, we win 5 games maybe.  Go 2-2, 3-1 we got a look at 7/8 wins

      Preseason over..2025 predictions

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I basically made almost the exact predictions on a phone call with a buddy about 3 weeks ago. I really do expect Evero gone before the seasons end, Young to just not able to get over the hump enough and DC to head into next season on a VERY hot seat.
