Carolina Panthers vs Arizona Cardinals


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Time to start talking about the Panthers next opponent. 

 

The Cardinals were one quarter away from joining the 3-0 club Sunday. Instead, they became a part of the blown fourth-quarter lead club.

The Cardinals led the winless Lions, 23-20, entering the fourth quarter. But Detroit hit two field goals, including one as time expired, to snap its 11-game losing streak.

Still, Arizona (2-1) has put together a solid open to the season, knocking off San Francisco and Washington before the heartbreaker against Detroit.

 

The Panthers open up 3 point underdogs to the Cardinals. 

 

What are your thoughts on this game?

Not impressed with their 2-1 start. 

I am, Kyler Murray and Hopkins are deadly together. Their defense leaves a lot to be desired. But their offense, sans their mediocre O-Line is damn good. Kyler Murray's running ability in the open field is quite disgusting. When he came out, I wanted us to trade Cam for him straight up. But ya know, it is what it is.

Not saying it won’t be a challenge for us but their schedule hasn’t been that tough thus far.

San Fran was mostly healthy when they played them and San Fran lost. I dunno. It’s about on the same level as the Panthers schedule. I think Detroit is better than their record. 

Detroit just broke an 11 game losing streak in the 4th quarter. They can’t be much better than us.

This game is going to be a lot tougher than the Chargers potentially. Teddy needs to come out of his shell because I think this could turn ugly. But I said that about the last 3 games and they were all close. So what do I know?

Kyler Murray has been throwing a lot of interception these last few games. So possibly the Cardinals will beat themselves.

Good friend of mine I watch a lot of football with is a big Cardinals fan so he gave me a pretty good lowdown on the team.

He's high on Kyler but says he along with the team make a lot of mistakes and bad penalties. Kyler has 5 INTs to 4 TDs right now. Says his scrambling ability is keeping them in games - should be a big problem for the Panthers. Will probably need to put Chinn or Thompson on him as a spy. Should expect him to have at least 1-2 turnovers. If Kyler plays a mistake free game, Panthers have no chance.

Defense is banged up and not very good. He said even without CMC the Panthers should be able to score. Said their top pick Simmons has looked lost in the first few games and gave up some big plays in his first few games. He's moving to safety to account for some injuries, but also because they don't really know where to put him.

Said he thinks the Cardinals will win but says it's probably a tossup.

Yeah, Simmons is just too raw. It's almost like Drafting a QB at this point, I wanted him and believe he's going to be good, but man. 

If we see Burns/Brown play well again, Cards are in for some poo. If Burns and Brown revert back to just being okay, yeah. Cards should win it.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
