raiders playing in mexico city tomorrow so they'll be on short rest. Panthers with 10 days to get healthy. The biggest threat is the Raiders receivers against our secondary, but I like the Bradberry Cooper matchup. I just worry about Crabtree against Worley. I'm assuming we'll play a lot of cover 2. 

Also, lets not forget this Raiders defense is nothing to write home about. Cam and company can have their way ... could be a high scoring game.

We need a healthy Kalil to get the run game going again and control T.O.P.  Likewise Oakland has a nice interior OL that wear down  defenses, we need Paul Solia, Star, & Love to hold the line of scrimmage. 

 

The key to beating oakland will be synchronized  run blocking.

You talk about how much we need Kalil for our Oline to play well. Then show a gif with Gradkowski in at Center.

 

Just been that type of year.

Not impossible.  Hopefully with extra rest and Oakland coming off a game in Mexico will help.  Im thinking we might pull the upset, which springs us to a 9-7 finish, just not sure that will get us in.


Highly doubt 9-7 is good enough. 10-6 would probably come down to tie breakers

I'd take 9-7 just to have back to back winning seasons

    • Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.
    • A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.    
    • You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
