It's not going to be easy. Their #1 defense is leagues beyond the #2 defense (Seattle?). I think Cam is going to see things he hasn't seen before. However, our coaches have & will have him prepared. Wade Phillips is a heck of a d coordinator but he's not new to the game.

Denver has not faced an offense like Carolina's all season long. 

 

The Panthers have faced offenses like the Broncos offense numerous time, only they don't have to worry about passes over 20 yards. 

 

This won't be a close game.

I'm thinking something like 4-5 interceptions for Manning. This defense is so damn opportunistic, and Manning throws a beautiful duck.

Manning may even get to have a standing ovation as Brock comes in with the game out of reach.

I don't know. The Broncos defense is pretty damn good. Easily the toughest defense we will have faced this season. One of the best overall defense over the last half decade. I don't care what you say. Watch them. They're nasty.

The matchup to watch is their offense vs our defense. If we can get up by a couple scores early, Denver has no way of crawling back into the game with that offense. I'm not predicting a blowout. I think we win 24-13 or so with the game never really in doubt. 

If they double Olsen, and contain Cam then they have a very good shot to win.

Denver has fantastic players at CB and on the d-line. Von Miller is on another level, that guy is a freak. We're going to need to make shutting him down a number one priority. 

The rest of their defense is solid/pretty good but not ALL-Pro level. 

Not turning the ball over, and most importantly capitalizing on drives were we get into the endzone will be absolutely critical for our offense. 

I still maintain it is our defense who needs to give us the clear advantage in this game- i.e. creating turnovers

lol Lots of coffee already? ;)

You brought up Denver's defense's ranking, not their offense. So that's what I posted about.

I said it won't be easy. I didn't say it would be a close game. Or even that they would win.

      The Evolution of the Panthers WR Room from 2023 to 2025

      I'm more impressed with the UDFA that the guys they have drafted in the first the last 2 years. A whole lot of prove it is still needed before any improvement should be talked about seriously.

      PANTHERS @ HURRICANES ROUND 3 GAME 1

      By PantherChris · Posted

      While I don't believe its a must win, (we have been better on the road this post season) it is definitely A NEED TO WIN the longer this series goes the more pronounced the Canes advantage on rest and health will be! If we hold serve at home in games 1 and 2 guaranteeing a 6 game minimum series for them if we lose the road games..... by the game 4 and 5 I expect them to be beat they have played A LOT OF HOCKEY the last three years, they have MINIMAL rest off a more physical than one might have expected series vs the leafs.... you know Tampa took their pound of flesh in round 1 from them. Combine all that with the fact that even though this year's canes squad isn't as talented as last years this IS a better squad than the one they swept last time that had McKenzie Mckeathern on line 1 Turbo with a broken hand a banged uo and eventually concussed Slavin (and even though it was a sweep 6 OTS and 4 1 goal losses is hardly dominant)  This year Bob hasn't been superman (hes probably gonna still have a great save percentage agiast us just a side effect of our style) Thatchuk is maybe 50% (3 game winners agiast us) their defense no longer has Gudas and several other downgrades.  While the Canes have a healthy and performing Svechnikov along with other big guys to counteract florida like Carrier, Jankowski, Robinson.   I by know means think it will happen but I either see this as a low scoring dog fight or a series were the canes surprise and end up dominating.
