Bold Prediction - Panthers beat the Pats

Ladainian Tomlinson think it could happen and I agree. 
 
Panthers put Brady's record-tying day on hold by downing Pats

Tom Brady is one win from tying Brett Favre and Peyton Manning for most wins (186) by a starting quarterback in NFL history. Cam Newton finds his groove and spoils Brady's big day.

My mind's telling me no.....

But my body....my bodys telling me yeeeheeeeheeessssss

As an older guy who has seen more than his share of time on the "playing field," and I ain't talking about a football field, if you get my drift, let me say that, far more often than not, when I've listened to my "body," instead of my mind, things haven't turned out so well. In other words, homer glasses are very similar to beer goggles.

LT also predicted Cam and Tyrod would throw for more combined yards than Drew and Tom week 2 so......

I feel like LT is always pushing the bold prediction agenda, but I kind of like it. Always gives me some strong hope... and then later it's crushed.

All my history of knowing the Panthers tells me this is a Pats blowout of epic proportions. Game might be over before halftime. But deep down I really hope all the obvious signs are wrong and the Panthers pull off a memorable upset

Not only that but this year is a scrap to get .500 year. Funny how no matter what coaches we have its always the same trend.

It’s because Richardson is intimidated by smart, driven football guys. He wants harmony in the front office and locker room over success. Case and point - Dave Gettleman. Gettleman ran the team like a business. He wasn’t overly friendly or polite. He was shrewd and made unpopular decisions in the best interest of the long term of the team. And he won. The panthers had the best run of success in their history under his watch. Now he’s gone and we’re back with good ol boy Hurney running the show, with brain dead Shula still calling plays. The Panthers are about to enter a very dark time that might not end until Richardson is long gone.

Ain't gonna happen but what to look for is more rhythm out of the offense and better play out of Cam. That's what you wanna see, I win is unlikely.  This is the 1st week the offense is in sort of a steady state with who they have.  I expect more cohesion and some of the rust to wear away from Cam....

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
