RB Adrian Peterson (ankle, shoulder, knee) is expected to play today, but WR Jamison Crowder (ankle) and RB Chris Thompson (rib, knee) are expected to be out, sources say. WR Paul Richardson (shoulder, knee) is a game-time decision.

 

 

Crowder is out.

RB Thompson is sometimes their leading receiver.

Even if Richardson plays he is banged up.

 

Panthers got this.

We should have this

But after watching us nip out a record FG to out gun Eli, this will be closer than we think.

 

Expect to get a big lead, then them come charging for a come back in the 2nd half with us holding on for the W

I don't remember the last panther lead I could relax with.

yep, we'll get up  by 10 or so in the first half, then lose the lead in the 4th quarter playing conservative, then we'll squeeze out an ugly win via a miracle run by Cam or a 67 yard FG by Gano, and there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth in the Huddle for the next week, and people will start threads like "people, people please!  We're 4-1, not 1-4",  to no avail.

Yea, agree. I’d love to see that pass get fixed this week but Alex smith won’t make that easy. Jordan Reed will prob catch 8 balls for 100 knowing how we cover TEs. Hopefully that is all of he damage. I seriously doubt That their run game breaks 50 total yards without Thompson; he is the only one that could hurt our D. AP isn’t the type of back that gives our team trouble.

Well what’s the alternative? Wins are wins and we have a tendency to get leads ands come away with the W.

 

the alternative? Play from behind? Start the game behind a few scores leading to disappointment and failed comebacks?

 

bitch please

 

ill take leads and ugly wins any day of the week.

As long as Rivera is the HC. I have zero faith in this team "having it."

      In all honesty, he should probably get that checked out. It might be (Arnold Schwarzenegger voice) "a tuuumaaa"

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I've seen the comp a few times, and I feel there is a lot to it. Our situation is a lot like Kansas City was pre-Mahomes (without the HOF HC) Whether you like them or not, D&D are building something here.  They had a strong draft.  The team is slowly coming together, developing some identity, and has some decent blue chip parts.  Brown, Horn, McMillan, and a good OL situation that we should keep fortifying every year.  It's not much yet, but growing.    Bryce is in that Alex Smith spot.  A top draft pick, has never been overly impressive, but you can win games when he's safe with the ball.  You're not winning because of him - maybe once in a blue moon.  From time to time he's shown the ability to orchestrate some plays and lead drives.  I just don't see anything that is like - "oh snap, yeah don't let him go, he's ours".  He'll make a solid/good throw every now and again, but man, it is a struggle a lot of the time to watch.  Some terrible performances to speak of, heck he's already been benched once during year 2.      He should in no way preclude you from flirting with what else is out there.  This is not a marriage.  If you're in position (or trade range) for a guy you REALLY like come draft day, you shoot your shot. If we are in the draft process, and suddenly realize QB3-4 is a guy we really like, that's when you make a modest jump from like 16 to 11 or something like that.  Just like the Bills did for Allen, like the Chiefs did for Mahomes.  This is nothing magical that plants this franchise savior title on them, this is not some stupid trade-- it's an easy trade up to get a guy you like w/a big ceiling.  It's all player dependent and coaching/development driven.  If we don't like a QB, by all means fortify the front-7, get an awesome OLB or ILB prospect.   But we're on year 3, you kind of know what you're getting at this point.  Mostly sub-200 yard performances, low YPA, bad technique, poor mechanics, some decent stuff sprinkled in, but some bad turnover heavy ones that kill the team's momentum.  Again, run with him if there's no complete disaster that happens the remainder of the season, but don't close the door on something better just because of the investment or debatable performances.
