No one has given a legit reason why the Broncos would beat us

Everyone picking the Broncos is going off "feeling", or just hate for the panthers. I've seen NFL network, FS1 and ESPN all week and everyone that picked Broncos said something like "I have a feeling Peyton", or "I'm rooting for Peyton" or something of destiny or a fairytale ending.

 

All the guys at NFL films are picking the panthers to win by double digits

You are correct, I am feeling that the picks for Denver are either Peyton nostalgia, former players with more fans/friends on the Broncos staff and team, or unathletic, fat analysts like Peter Schrager with painfully over simplistic narratives like ooh wow that Broncos defense eh?  Ooh yeah defense wins championships keep Newton in the pocket Brady sacked, etc.

Meanwhile, it seems every analyst with a handle on X&O's, whether they are film guys like Greg Cossell or former coaches like Billick, are not only in the Panthers' corner, but are closer to predicting a double score win.

It could certainly happen, but Carolina definitely looks better (or at least equivalent) on paper in almost every way. That said, the game's played on the field... but I believe that the guys are prepped, focused, and ready to steamroll some Broncos on Sunday.

Generally when the number one O and Number one D meet. The D side wins. Tampa vs Raiders. Seahawks vs Denver. Some that I remember. The difference is our Defense isn't a bottom feeding defense and their offense isn't a top tier one either. 

 

I hope it's a blow out. But I don't think their D will let us score often. Not in the beginning at least.

This exactly, Denvers offense is a MAJOR libaliity for them in this game, against this defense.

Carolinas offense is by no means a liability against this Denver d.

We should be able run on Denver's defense rather well. Taking out the fact that I'm a Panthers fan I still think we should win. If I had to bet by picking the winner there is no way in hell I would pick Denver.

How in the world are experts picking against us? They don't even offer good reasons as to why we should lose. It's unfuging believable. I have to wonder if you forced these experts to put money on the game if they would change their tune. It's like when experts came out picking the Jags to beat us. What the fug? Didn't even give good reasons why we should lose. It's Panthers hate. It's hatred toward the South. Or it's inexplicable. The tip is that they don't give good reasons why they are making their pick. They give "I feel a tickle in my balls about Denver" type reasons. Unreal. They should be fired. God I would fire them in a heartbeat for being incompetent.

Denver's own coaching staff and players have to mystified to find themselves in the SB. Denver's team, just on the eyeball test, doesn't appear to have #1 anything. They must have racked up stats against teams that are complete ass. I mean horrible. We've already played and beaten the doors off of a damn slew of teams this season better than Denver.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
