Voodoo


ItsNotGonnaBeAlright

Recommended Posts

Alright, less than twenty four hours to go before the boys take the field on national television. Must win for the Panthers, at least if all the sentiments I've heard are to be believed.

So, what kind of voodoo are you working to ensure a Panther victory tomorrow night? Me, I'm cracking open a new batch of homemade beer (been holding off intentionally till MNF), making a large batch hot wings (my special cayenne/habanero sauce), and making my own chicago deep dish pizza (double crust pepperoni/sausage/bacon/bell pepper). Last time I put this much effort into my voodoo was MNF against the Bucs. It worked for me then, dammit.

How about you guys?

Well, what's been getting me is that every NFL connected source has been making so much 'hay' over the facts that the Cowpokes haven't had a sack or forced a turnover yet this year. I certainly hope that continues, as well as Romo's struggles, but teams seem to have a facility for getting 'right' when they play us in recent years. The line in my local paper today has the 'Pokes favored by 8 points!

I do believe this is a 'must win' game for us, if we can't circle the wagons and get the job done, against a struggling team at that, then our season is done. That's not being pessimistic, that's beaing realistic.

    • This season is about two things that impact the Ws and Ls 1. Can Young be, or ever  be, a top 15 qb 2. Can Evero be a decent DC  my personal feeling is time may be up for one and the other’s time should’ve been up before season start  regardless of my personal feels, I’m glad football is back and hope to be proved wrong every Sunday 
    • The point was, largely it was cool to be critical of select players all off season (XL) and not be questioned about your fandom, being negative…..but select folks react different if done to Bryce.    and if XL had an army of defenders (which he didn’t) there would be plenty of “derailment” as you say.  But people largely accepted you should be able to be critical of XL. Therefore the good and bad were BOTH largely accepted convo.  I have no clue about your joke analogy.  Racist jokes suck.  Jokes about race can be funny.  I do know some people view it all as the same thing. 
    • I am not sure that would necessarily hold up to a large data sample and some in depth analysis. It's certainly an interesting theory.  IMO(anecdotally), the better backups are usually older backups that were above average NFL starters for long periods of time. That and just guys that are always fringe bottom third starter, top third backups. Flacco, Dalton are current examples of the former. I think guys like Tyrod Taylor and Jacoby Brissett are good examples of the latter.  The issue with Lance/Richardson/Wilson is that they were ultimately big busts. So you have to bank on them being the type of player that can handle that, battle back and make a decent NFL career. I am not sure I would say that is the majority of those type of players. Winston is just a different thing. He is an old school gunslinger that is pretty inflexible when it comes to playing style. If you don't have an old school offense tailored to a Brett Favre type gunslinger AND have a defense elite enough to win when he is turning the ball over like gangbusters.....it's tough for him to consistently win games. It will be damn fun to watch but the W's are gonna be rare.
