Great to see the team get healthy when it matters. I honestly think this is our biggest game of the year - even if we get to the Super Bowl. This will be the game that defines the 2015 Carolina Panthers. Win or lose, this will be a big milestone in the Rivera/Cam era. 

It's the biggest game because it's the next game, and we need to win to get to the SB.  Perhaps this will be a more "epic game" and the toughest match up on the route to the Lombardi, but no, winning the SuperBowl will be a bigger milestone.

Cam says the Panthers have no trick plays for this week, which is likely a trick

Lol. These guys really do ask the dumbest questions, but it's part of their jobs.

Someone asked Ron about this too at the very end of his press conference today.  You've got to watch Ron's face as he answers  "You really think I'd tell you?!?!"... watch too as he shakes his head in  astonishment and laughs in derision as he leaves the room. 

I laughed for about 5 minutes after watching this,

Some honesty from Star Lotulelei on Seattle: “I respect them, but I’m just sick of playing them.”

Exactly how I feel. I didn't want them to beat the Vikings. Not because I'm scared of them, I think we'll have no problems disposing of the trash that flies into Charlotte this week. But because I'm sick of them. They're the luckiest team I've seen play in a long long time and I'd rather see a team like the Zimmer-coached Vikings in it.

I feel that the game this Sunday is enormous from the point of view of legitimizing the team to the outside world.  We are essentially in the same place where we lost last year.  We can get to and lose in the super bowl, and still be considered a success by most.  We'll be viewed as a top tier team, and justify our 15-1 record, especially if we add Arizona to the list of bodies along the way.

If we lose this weekend, we are back to being considered mediocre.  All we'll hear is more "not as good as the 15-1 record, soft schedule, blah blah blah."

I really hope the team feels this way too.

Russell Wilson says Seahawks weren't necessarily staying away from Josh Norman in 1st meeting despite not throwing his way all game.

Pete Carroll said it was by design and they didn't throw his way on purpose, didn't he?
