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.

      Panthers Preseason

      Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By CRA · Posted

      A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
