I agree, with this game you have to look at the intangibles.

A. Cockiness- The broom and wine incident. It just never ends well for the team that does stuff like that to the other team they are about to play.  Havent seen it since Norman left...

B. Just the law of probabilities, it’s hard enough to beat a team twice. Three times? Ok, lightning in a bottle, a 4th though?! I’m sorry, but the probabilities aren’t in the Saints favor on that one.        In high school, for a math experiment,  i flipped a coin 50 times...at one point i hit 9 tails in a row...

C. Motivation- This team feels motivated and Rivera loves the underdog role. Hence the shirt he wore about only having a 5% chance to make the playoffs, he’s been talking about that all week.   Motivation and Rivera do not belong in the same sentence.

D. The elements- We will be the 3rd consecutive road game on a chilly Charlotte night against a Saints team that has been playing suspect the last few weeks to say the least.   Unless its snowing...like 8 inches, (measurment with significance) this will not be a factor...if so...we have a hell of a run game.

Agian, on paper yes technically they definitely have the upper hand, but the Panthers have the intangibles in spades on this game. We are winning...Expect an azz whoppin....but on any givin Sunday we can win...if we can pull it off...i'll even be more pissed at Rivera...

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
