Official LA Rams at Carolina Panthers Gameday Thread!

Welcome to the official thread of the LA Rams at Carolina Panthers Gameday. 

Today, our beloved Panthers will finally show us what they have had planned all offseason. 

No excuses! They are healthy and know exactly what to expect in all facets of the game today.

Keys to Panthers Victory:

  • Pressure Goff, then pressure him some more. Goff's QBR dips drastically when under duress. The Panthers will need to lean on their young pass rush to keep constant pressure throughout the game. 
  • Run the damn ball. The absolute best way to keep Cam Newton healthy today is to control the game on the ground. I suspect CMC and even Scarlett will have a great game. 
  • Don't shut it down, Ron. A 4th quarter lead is meaningless against this team. Pretend you are down three until the very end. 

 

As a reminder, please try to keep reactionary threads ( FIRE RON!!!!!) off the forum. This thread is for general banter. You are free to create new threads on actual topics.

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
