Aints' Davenport Injured

Quote
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Saints first-round DE Marcus Davenport is expected to miss "about a month" with a toe injury.
The 14th overall pick in April, Davenport was injured on the final play of the win over the Vikings this past Sunday night. Rotating in with Alex Okafor and Cameron Jordan, Davenport has four sacks through seven games. It's an obvious hit to the depth up front with the Rams coming to town this week. Oct 31 - 1:13 PM

 

Not a game changing loss for them but significant nonetheless, as they have very little depth behind him. Especially considering their upcoming schedule:

vs Rams

at Bengals 

vs Eagles

vs Falcons

at Cowboys

at Bucs

 

I can't see them getting out of that better than 3-2, and possibly worse.

 

We really need to take care of business in our upcoming games:

vs Bucs

at Steelers

at Lions

vs Seahawks

at Bucs

at Browns

 

Should not lose more than one of those (most likely Steelers if any). Good opportunity to make up some ground on the Aints and possibly surpass them. Most think the division comes down to our meetings in week 15 and 17 but I think this upcoming stretch of game is more important. If we can come out ahead here all we'll need to do is beat the Aints at home and the division is ours, regardless of what happens week 17.

I agree we shouldn't lose more than one, but don't sleep on the Seahawks.  They always play us very well and they've looked much better than expected this season.

Plus Russell Wilson is the luckiest QB in the world when he plays us.

I miss that rivalry at its peak.  I hated when we lost, but the games were always some of the best of the season due to the combination of young, athletic QBs + great defenses.

Damn I had forgotten that they're playing the Eagles, Falcons, AND Rams at home. What a draw. At least we get to host Seattle. 

And they got Steelers at home we have to go to Pissburgh on a short week...

Saints gonna take L's vs. LA, Cincy, Philly, and ATL. Maybe even Cowboys.

We're gonna beat TB, DET, SEA, TB, and CLE. Maybe even Pitt.

We're in good shape right now, Saints injuries or not.

So Saints are gonna go on a 4-5 game skid here, while the Panthers continue to string together wins?

Why?

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
