I hope after Rod called out the officiating that we are fired up Sunday. I don't want to give then any momentum. 

Dunno if you got to see his interview but he said he didn’t tell his guys about his issues with the refs. But I think they are feeling it. Both teams are tired. The question is will the preds go Pekka. Rod basically nixed Slavin already but with Lajoie’s play last night I actually think that’s the least of our worries. I have no doubt we play Mrazek and honestly I think he’s  gonna be on point. If we can win Sunday and close this out in 5 that would be a huge win.

Yeah, I don't want this to stretch, especially with how Nashville is starting to lean goon on us.

Wow actually reversed a call for us. Sucks that the refs had to be called out in order to do their job right.

I doubt getting called out bothered them.  Game 3 gave Nashville a home win in front of their crowd, it means Carolina wont advance in Nashville and will most likely get to celebrate at home.

Thats just good TV scheduling bud.

celebrating at home or away doesn't really matter. It's been like this since the beginning of hockey playoffs.

Youre right in that it doesn't matter to the team.  They'd much rather have a sweep.  Bad officiating is extending series. Benefits somebody.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Icege · Posted

      WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.

      Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.

      In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
