We are the perfect trap game for New England

Facts:

Everyone that has a voice in football has written off the Panthers for this game (including most of us on the Huddle).

New England is riding high.

Panthers got embarrassed, this is a game they could make a statement.

This could be a perfect recipe for an upset. Thoughts?

Like I said in the other thread. A lot of people are forgetting how we are driving down the field with relative ease at the beginnings of each game. We fug it up in the red zone and kick field goals. If we can someone score 6 points there instead of 3 early, we might get some momentum and stand a chance.

Anything can happen but I just don't see it.

Cam is clearly fugged up. Shula is Shula. Rivera has possibly lost the locker room. Olsen, KB, Kalil out. Funchess running go routes. Abandoning the run. Missed tackles and assignments on defense.

Oh, and we're going on the road to face arguably the best QB and coach in NFL history.

I'm thinking I might get an early start on the leaves Sunday.

No such thing as a trap game in the NFL. Every team has enough talent to win any given Sunday, and every team knows that.

Fans don't-they think there team has so much talent than others-I'm guilty, I think the Falcons are going to smoke the Bills this Sunday. Bills have a good defense, Falcons can lose the game, don't expect that, but it certainly could happen.

Panthers can win in Foxboro, won't be because Belichick & Co took them lightly.

I am flat out not watching at all. We just got drug by the (formerly) worst team in the NFC South and now we get to face the team that I hate more than ISIS. No thanks. I will pick this up the week after. I actually want to have a working television(home option) and not be imprisoned(bar option) for the rest of the season.

    • Who is comparing the two QB’s as football players? They’re completely different QB’s i said before Baker got here that he could play but the huddle swore up and down he was the worst ever  Bryce very similar right now. Bryce out there with a bunch of guys that’ll be out of the league in a few years minus TMac. And given this thread is about the 4th and 1 play specifically well it was actually TMac that butchered the entire play by running the wrong route 
    • Team goes as the QB goes. It's no wonder we get dogwalked on a regular basis. That's the face of the franchise.
    • Rookie 2nd rounder in his first career game (and a few weeks post punctured lung) gets 6 snaps, is doubled on 5 of them, created a pressure to force a QB scramble on the only one he was singled, and still put a little pressure on one of the doubles which ended up being an INT........... And people look at that as a bad first impression? Even if you wanted to see a better move to beat or get off the double team, just the fact that he's making teams account for him with 2 players on a given snap, is a win for the defense.  It's up to the rest of the defense to make the other team pay for doing so, you can't fault him for that. Seriously, it's like some people are just going to be upset with everything if we're not a SB contender every season and play like it every snap of every game.  I've been screaming it all offseason, we're not a player or two away from being a contender, we're still in the early phase of a re-build, especially if we don't have the QB (spoiler alert, we don't).   Sometimes you just have to see potential and growth from a team at this phase of the process, expecting elite play in week 1 out of guys like Scourton is a picture perfect recipe for ending up upset. If that's what he does in his first game coming off the freak injury and less practice time while recovering, I'm extremely optimistic of what he can turn into with more experience and time to work on his craft.
