Official Carolina Panthers at New England Patriots Gameday Thread

 

Two Diametrically opposed teams are featured today. 

 

DEFENSIVE TEAM RANKINGS (YPG)

1. Carolina Panthers

32. New England Patriots

 

OFFENSIVE TEAM RANKINGS (YPG)

1. New England Patriots

28. Carolina Panthers

 

Bill Belichick had a cameo in a dream I had last night. Yes, he was nude and carried a fiddle. He explained to me what the Patriots would do in this game. 

1. Defensively they will sell out completely on the run. He told me they unconcerned about Cam Newton throwing the ball. 

2. Wait for Shula to get frustrated and abandon the run, thinking passing the ball will somehow be better. (it won't). 

3. Panthers are now in a shootout with the Patriots in Foxboro as the Patriots' defense stays fresh from numerous Panthers' 3 and outs. 

4. Third quarter will feature a fresh NE defense and a tired CAR defense. 

5. Ballgame 

 

Prediction - 

Patriots 27

Panthers 13

 

I was horribly wrong last week (as were all of you sons of bitches). Hopefully I am just as wrong today.

Bill Belichick will run circles around our coaches. We'll show some life in the 1st half and keep it close, then Bill will adjust at halftime and it will get ugly. Let's just get through this game with no injuries because this poo is getting ridiculous.

I expected us to lose this game before the season started, but the Pats have looked very beatable this season. They’ve been blown out and barely beat a rookie QB. Their only convincing win comes against the lowly Saints (I know I know). I think we get the upset.

I consider myself to be a realist....and my gut is telling me that the Panthers show up and show out in a big way today.  The team is ready to make a damn statement against a team many think are superbowl contenders.  Cam will have his best game of the season, and will remove the chains from his legs and rip apart the Patriots on the ground.  The defense will hit Brady often, forcing him to make mistakes.  Fug the haters...we will be 3-1 by 4:30 today.

1. Use PA and rollouts to get Cam moving and in rhythm. Use layered routes 

2. Now that defense has worry about PA & QB scrambles the run game continues to gain consistent yardage.

3. Panthers take the lead by end of the half with a  8 min drive & wearing down the Pats defense. 

4. Panthers D is fresh and forces Brady a turnover by the LBs . The offense continues to run the ball and score at will.

5. Gameover suckers 

Panthers 31 - Pats 21 

 

J-Stew 100 yds 1TDs

CMC 100 yds 2TDs

For some reason I could see us bringing them down to our level and winning a very ugly and boring game.  

20-17 Panthers, with a defensive score. Huge win over a top team but still gives us a ton of reason to worry about our offense (putting up just one TD and two FG against the worst D in the league) and the Huddle continues to panic.

    • I personally think Bryce is going to be an extremely good Quarterback for a long time. If you look at modern QB development, it just takes a while. The extreme athletes can get by early, but if you look at the trajectories of guys the last 10 years, were seeing a lot of slow-cooking. Jared Goff, Geno Smith, Baker, Sam Darnold, Trevor Lawrence. The list is long.  The guys that were truly special from Day 1 is an extremely short list. The list of things that college quarterbacks are responsible for gets shorter by the day with the transfer portal, and the college offenses. The list of things that NFL Quarterbacks are responsible for seems to get longer and longer each season.  I saw an interview the other day in which a rookie quarterback and center were calling plays for the offense.  I can't remember the team or the Quarterback, but I definitely remember the clip. It takes time, even for the smartest and most gifted, and the reality is, we have no idea how good or bad the coaching may be until we hear things we aren't supposed to hear anyway.  Bryce isn't perfect, but I saw in another thread, his biggest struggle is risk/reward. That is something I only expect him to improve upon. His adjustments, ability to read a defense, and execution have been extremely good considering our rosters in his tenure here. Our offensive personnel and coaching were both so poor his rookie year that I'm not sure it's fair to properly evaluate that at all. Since that time, all we've seen from him is growth and progress. 
    • Not really.  The run defense has been solid except for the opening game and New England.  We shut Arizona's run game down, but early turnovers hurt.  And of course, we shut out Atlanta.    
    • True, Bryce having a weaker arm wouldn’t be a big deal if it was paired with… Great accuracy, ball placement, etc. But it’s not.  Bryce has consistently done 2 things all 3 seasons.  One of the lowest completion % in the NFL each year,  one of the highest bad throws % in the NFL.    Then you can get into his unwillingness to stress a D and how that has allowed safeties and DBs  cheat coverage making the small ball so many QBs enjoy a tougher task.
