If you're too lazy to click  heres a summary:

- Cowboys still lead the all time series 9 wins - 4 losses 

- Both our offense and defense team stats from last year are very simular 

- We both have significant O-line players out for this game, and we both have a notable defender out on a suspension 

- They think their defense is vastly improved/better

- Admitted they dont have the best WR situation

- Admitted we vastly improved our WR situation

Some quotes from the comments section: 

"A loss would be hugely disappointing. With as injured as their O line is, if this defense is even average we should be able to shut them down."

"Guys this will not be a road game at all. We will have more fans as them"

"Their godawful O-line against our new and improved D-line is a matchup I really want to see. We could make Cam's life really suck."

"Poe and Short concern me the most. Connor has struggled against power and Looney isn't Fredbeard. If they push the line of scrimmage and let Kuechly get going downhill, could be a long day for Zeke."

"I love opening on the road. Pressure is 100% on the Panthers to hold serve—"

"Panthers fans are being extremely arrogant and really downplaying our defense and receivers in their forum"

"I'm in the foothills of NC, can't stand Newton."

Dallas will only have one starter from the offensive line out next Sunday, Travis Frederick.

Tyron Smith, Connor Williams, Zack Martin, and La'el Collins have been cleared. Smith had a good training camp/preseason and Martin only had a bruised knee.

Can’t wait for Moton and Daryl to stonewall their Dline and peak Cam Newton slice up their terrible secondary through the air.

Front Seven has been monstrous against the run in preseason. Should easily shut down Zeke and force Dak to pass. While he’s a better passer than given credit (much like Cam), he’s not in elite tier yet and our defense should be able to handle him.

Curtis Samuel will be going off as long as the Panthers play him. Our receivers, CMC, and Norv Turner is gonna be so fun to watch.

Cam plays like he has all preseason (which basically looked like a continuation from his performance against the Saints in the playoffs) he’ll easily be bringing up an easy dub at home.

Even with our OLine being what it is....the panthers are not a good matchup for them. 

I think they struggle to put together drives and I think Cam/Norv find their rhythm. I’m not sure if they have an answer for CMC on a Texas route and I also think our WR’s win more often than not against them also. Olsen eats all day as well  

 

I think Panthers grind them down and pull away 24-13

I think the coaching in this game is more interesting than the personnel.

Jason Garrett played under Norv Turner and Dallas' current offense is actually a variation of what Norv did in Dallas in the 90s. Student vs. teach matchups are always fun.

Kris Richard is being groomed to take over Dallas' defense and when he was in Seattle, the Panthers and Seahawks made for good games.

It should be an entertaining matchup, one way or the other.

They sound kinda misinformed about our oline situation. They might not have a clue about Moton or how bad Matt was, or how huge it would be if D. Williams plays. 

Well, heck most Panthers fans probably aren't informed about our Oline given the huge swing in the situation today....

So we worry about a rookie in Conner Williams and Martin on a bum knee? Nah I think our front 7 can handle that. Then u have to make sure a wr will get open that quick.

 

Lol, it was just a clarification. Nothing more, nothing less.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
