CHARLOTTE – Inside the Carolina Panthers’ playhouse, today’s secret word is … juice.

"Dude. Juice is a great word,” veteran cornerbackCortland Finnegan said after Sunday’s NFC title romp over the Arizona Cardinals. “I don’t know where the hell you got that from, but it’s juice, man. They got juice here. And it starts with the coach and everything else and works its way down. It’s juice. We’ve got the Juice Brothers over there. “

Juice Brothers?

“Dean Marlowe and Lou Young,” Finnegan said, pointing at the lockers of two young defensive backs. “We call them the Juice Brothers because they bring the juice every week. So, you write ‘the juice’ and it just trickles down to everybody. It’s the Juice Brothers.”

This place is starting to make more sense. Hey, where’s the other Juice Brother?

“It’s Jacked Up Intensity Contagious Energy,” Young said.

It’s been an acronym this whole time? Screw it, I’m not rewriting.

“I want to say Uncle Rome – we call him ‘Unc’, Roman Harper – Unc came up with it,” Young said. “He said ‘Juice Brothers’ and then it just stuck. Yeah, like probably the beginning of the season. The juice is contagious. We bring that juice.”

So Monday through Saturday …

“Monday through Sunday!” said Marlowe, materializing again nearby.

OK, so if you’re not even in uniform Sunday … what is it you do?

Marlowe: “Oh, juice!”

Young: “Juice.”

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

So even though you’re not playing, you’ve bought into this as your role.

“Got to,” Young said.

You’re like the hype men.

“Yeah,” Young said. “And they’re grooming us up, so we’re doing what we’ve got to do.”

Two weeks to the Super Bowl now. Can you sustain the juice that long?

“WHAT?” Marlowe borderline-yelled.

“Yes,” Young said. “Nineteen weeks – the juice is not going to stop. It’s not going to stop.”

 

 

Hahahahahahaha!

Love how the team & especially Rivera gives each & every player including the practice squad an important role to play. How the leaders have embraced that so everyone does too. Can you ever picture Finnegan talking like that in the Titans' locker room? Nope.

    • You making fun of or not realizing how important that actually is leads me to believe you don’t have either of those assets and are subconsciously upset about it, or you’ve never been in a position to be a leader and thus you don’t value good leadership which Bryce oozes with. 
    • I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.
    • The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.
