Game 1 is upon us. 

The rosters are set. It is go time. 

Las Vegas Raiders (0-0) at Carolina Panthers (0-0)

The Carolina Panthers will host the Las Vegas Raiders in what has to be the most mysterious opening game in Carolina Panthers history. Will they be good? Will they be bad? Will they be horrible? Who knows?

But what do you know about the Raiders? What are their season expectations? 

If you check out the Raider Forums you can see what is on the minds of Raider fans. This includes their projected depth chart.

I think it’ll be very tough to take anything away from this game as the Raiders are a big wildcard too. Either way hoping we start off the season on a good note with a big win and Teddy showing a full command of Brady’s offense. Any positives at all on the other side of the ball will be considered a bonus to me.
 

My prediction: extremely sloppy game with both teams scoring in the 30s, Panthers come out on top.

I know a great deal.

The game will take place on sunday sept 11 at 1pm EST. It will be played at Bank of America stadium. Each team will field a roster of 53 players who have been less thoroughly evaluated in the offseason than prior professional rosters. I know the stadium is open air and the field will be 100 yards long from endzone to endzone. 

I know the national anthem will be played before the game. Some players will kneel, others will not. People will get nearly as upset over this one way or the other as they did when someone stole their ice cream cone in kindergarten. They should probably focus their angst more on the final score, which will almost certainly involve one team scoring more points than the other.

Oh and the officials will wear striped uniforms that make them look like zebras. The only true consensus among fans will be that they are universally incompetent. In the case of Jerome Boger, we will all be right.

Beyond that I would be hard pressed to say.

Raiders -2.5 was the last line I saw.

Brandon Parker (reserve OT, #75) is a facebook friend of mine---they are feeling good, just do not know what to expect.  He is happy that he did not have to purchase 30-40 tickets.  He is a good guy--played at A&T, his father played at UNC and for the Steelers.  I coached with him when Brandon was our tee-boy--along with my son (ball boy).  Father a minister--great family.  Basically, however, he is not a trash talker and he would not say much regardless, but he did say that they have peeked at LSU and Baylor film---

      interesting podcast. Did my best to summarize  1  none understand why rico isnt getting 100% of snaps 2  dalton  is seasoned veteran  and for this game, could he more of a challenge for bills than young   Better arm and   Familiar with  mcdermott defense.  Has seen everything    Impressed with Tet  and Panthers do not have bad receivers and impressed by size  3  not impressed with bills passed game and Allen is being held back because of it. bills do not seem to have a consistent vertical  passing game  as in past.   No intermediate More Short passes for YAC and that hurts Allen    Could be to control pace and tempo of the game given the bills defensive weaknesses    Need intermediate to stretch zone defenses  4 bills have several returning from DL from suspension this game on defense that could help  5  atlanta beat bills offense by  blitzing  and played ton of man coverage.   No structured intermediate passing game for bills   Bills had no answer for atlanta defense either blitzes and man to man coverage    Rushed 5 or more on over 30% if Allen’s drop backs  6  compliments the panthers defense   Up and coming but has issues. Last in pressure on qb   Last in DVOA and coverage of TEs

      REPORT: Bryce Young ankle injury is “just a one-week injury”

      By Super Grateful · Posted

      jesus christ, what weird subforum did I stumble upon where people are talking like Dalton is this incredible back up that is going to throw for 400 yards and 4 TD's like we haven't seen him in this role before, and that there is this master plan to fake Bryce's high ankle sprain in order to bench him during a winning season with favorable stats?

      REPORT: Bryce Young ankle injury is “just a one-week injury”

      By strato · Posted

      It is strange, but no less surreal than him being the 1.1 in the NFL draft.  If I were in the situation the team is in, I would be Not want to aggravate that injury and would be overly cautious. He needs to be fully healthy so he can properly evaluated in these games that are coming up.  They see Dalton in practice, they saw the film from Sunday. Maybe he has looked good enough that they think a side benefit to the caution is getting to look at the offense with a different guy running it.    The worst thing that could come out of it is Bryce is hampered the rest of the season
