That Packers #26th ranked Defense...

They are amoung one of the worst ranked defenses we have faced in the league. We “should” be able to move the ball on offense. They let Cleveland hang 21 points and take them into OT today.

However we will almost certainly be facing Aaron Rodgers returning from his IR hiatus. Our Defense will need to get to him early and keep him out of rhythm. 

Also, I kinda wish Tony Romo would call this game with Rodgers returning. We would be hearing PTSD flashbacks live on air from when we took Romo out of the Thanksgiving game in ‘15.

If Rodgers is %100 he will torch this secondary with ease, he will remind everyone why he’s the best QB in football.

 

This is the only game remaining in the schedule I’m not confident in what so ever 

I'm worried that the Packers will be very rejuvenated.   They are still a big long shot for the playoffs but they have met their goal of being 7-6 when Rodgers returns.  If he's back we will need our best effort to win.  This defense's performance against Brees this year does not have me optimistic for their ability to stop Rodgers.

A good Panthers team should always be feared in December, the way they stifled an elite Minnesota team today who would've had at least 2 more touchdowns w/o the defense showing up I'm not worried about the last 3 games, they'll take care of business at the stadium and they probably don't even need to beat Atlanta to make the playoffs, but will go for the w anyway to get the division crown (N.O. has to lose another game for that to happen of course).

Weren’t you one of those that said Carolina would lose 38-10 to the Vikings?

Actually we played Brees very well. It seems like people forget the punt return fumble, punter turning the ball over, Peppers penalty and Matt Kalils 30 yards of Face Mask penalties and Funchess stone hands in that game.

those plays,.. the game was a lot closer than the score.

    • We were very banged up going into that Rams game. Our second best player (Horn), our best safety, and both starting ILBs were out. I feel like our defense has really been impressive considering a year ago. If our offense learns how to be balanced like they were against the Rams, we can honestly beat anyone. Those losses to the Saints and 49ers may have been what we needed to figure out that when we depend too much on either running exclusively or passing exclusively that we are no good. That Rams game showed what we can do when we are in sync offensively and it was so much fun to watch. If that offense shows up this week then go ahead and cancel your plans the second weekend in January as you will have a game to watch.
    • and we won a game in the playoffs.....where our leading receiver was Fozzy Whitaker w/ just 39 rec yards.  That feels like a 2025 Panthers type winning setup. 
    • Yep, the board has amnesia to the weekly swings and declarations made.  The same cast of characters has been talked about vastly different repetitively and you only have to go back as far as the game before the last one....and just keep repeating that pattern largely backwards.  I personally feel confident that this team is not bad and it is not good.  And while that is nice to get back to be out of the literal dumpster......I don't view this team as an average team w/ a puncher's chance.  All average teams are of different molds.  We are more the, if a really good team plays bad, you will lose to us variety.  We aren't bad enough where you can get away with a bad day vs us anymore.
