Official Raiders at Panthers Gameday thread!

Recommended Posts

Here it is boys and girls. The first gameday thread of 2020. Not long ago, we weren't even sure this would happen. Look at us. Hey, look at us. 

 

Today our beloved Carolina Panthers host the Los Ange, err, Oaklan, errr..... Las Vegas Raiders? 

 

Las Vegas Raiders at Carolina Panthers

TV: CBS

 

Keys to a Carolina Panthers victory

  • Strike first, Strike Hard, No Mercy, Sir! The Panthers at this point are a complete unknown. Use that to your advantage. Come out aggressive and unafraid of mistakes because hell we are all expecting them anyways. 
  • Pressure Carr, watch him crumble. This is a make or break season for Carr. More and more he looks like his older brother. Shake his confidence early and often. Brian Burns could very well make a huge difference in this game. 
  • It's Teddy Time. Teddy Bridgewater has had a long comeback to a starting role in this league. Do not leave him on an island for 5 seconds while this makeshift offensive lines tries to protect him. Do him a huge favor and get the ball out quickly. Fans may not like the "dink and dunk" offense, but building Teddy's confidence is so much more important. 

 

Lastly, lets have a fun game with zero injuries. 

 

LETS GET IT ON.

Could Rhule and company have picked a worse year to start their rookie season? Guess it had to begin sometime so why not now. Nobody is expecting much from us early in this season, winning against the Raiders could really boost everyone’s confidence. 
 

We have plenty of talent on offense, minus the o-line as usual. Should be able to score. Defense has talent, if our front 7 can get pressure the corners won’t look like straight up trash. 
 

Will come down to a fourth quarter late score...

Damn...something came up an I cannot watch the game live.  Just signed up for a free trial of game pass so can watch later.

I think Teddy will do very well.  He makes quick decisions and is accurate...just what the doctor ordered.  Offense will keep us in this game.

 

GO PANTHERS!!!

    • You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.
    • I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.
    • Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
