I'm not digging a short week to prepare for the Wildcat

you better hope that ronnie brown is healthy....seriously.

ronnie brown is a huge part of their offense.

no ronnie brown means that they have to make adjustments.

what tapes are the panthers going to be watching to prepare?

no ronnie means the dolphins make adjustments to their game plan.

how do you think the panthers will do at anticipating these adjustments?

this weekend could be huge. if we pull off a win and the giants finally get another win (i don't like anyone going up against the giants after a 4 game losing streak followed by a bye) we are looking at a 5-5 record shared by both teams.

that very much puts us back in wild card contention.

This is starting to remind me of every year when Fox's panthers miss the playoffs they almost make it every time only to fall short every time. Massive amounts of injuries give Fox built-in excuses combined with almost making it despite those setbacks means Fox still has a job this offseason. Get prepared for another let down.

Another thing is that Miami beat the Bucs the old fashioned way after Ronnie went down. Henne threw a critical interception, and came back and led the game winning drive. That's not something that a bad QB is able to do. He shook it off and did his job like nothing happened. It was good to see Carolina step it up against the Birds, but Miami is better than their record indicates. With or without Ronnie, it will be a hell of a game.

Carolina's keys to winning are to make Henne throw by shutting down Ricky Williams. Also, to throw against Miami's secondary.

Are you serious? You think that massive amounts of injuries we sustain, and still almost make the playoffs are not a result of Fox and his coaching? Give Fox some credit you can blame him for maybe one loss this year but our players have to make plays, that is what they are paid to do. Give Fox credit for sticking with Delhomme he was right all along that he gives us the best chance to win. Looks like Panther's are finally hitting their stride and that is the best time to do it is in the second half of the season. The one thing that does worry me is the rash or injuries we are sustaining to our pro bowl players, but Fox can't help that we have to play through it and try to make the playoffs.

haven't expected much since then.

If you look back at my posts (in other threads) you will realize I actually like Fox and defend him all the time. But I also see a team that every year they face a tough schedule it seems have a laugable amount of injuries that tend to come up and I think it is a bit of a coincedence. Wether that is because of conditioning or just plan bad luck or more senister a consipiracy to cover up his weaknesses IDK and neither do you.

    • Yeah, I've been torn up all week about this. And I'm going to be honest, you and I don't know poo about what is going on with the team. Are they losing the locker room? Not seeing anything from the players about that, just seeing it on forums like this. Are they concerned? Yeah, I'd think that would be a reasonable assumption. Are they rallying around Bryce? Yeah, that I'm seeing from the stuff we see of the players. Is some of it a bit drummed up, quite possibly. Is some of it genuine care and belief in their teammate, yeah most definitely. What is Morgan going to do? Hell, that was just week 1. And week one is often a liar. Once in a while it tells the truth (and that sure was an ugly one to tell last Sunday). Most often, it's just what it is. Half the teams that played in week one lost. Straight down the middle. Sometimes it was a close game, sometimes it was a blowout. We got punched in the face, had our lunch money stolen and Jacksonville kissed our girlfriend.  Me, I saw a team that wasn't up to speed yet. We were playing like this was the fourth pre-season game like we used to have. We're going to learn a lot about Bryce, this team, our coaching and team management after this week's game. It's against the Cardinals, a team that has always been one of those benchmarks for it. Beat them and good things happen (remember that killer game Julius Peppers had against them), lose and it often starts the fast slide to the bottom again (sadly, that playoff game with Jake...). Right now, the Cardinals have their Bryce Young, except their guy still has a better PR department. They have a meh-ish defense. They have a star WR that is underperforming and was possibly over-drafted. They don't have many stars to speak of and dwell around 3rd-4th place in their division on a regular basis. In other words, they are pretty much on par with us. And they are a forgotten team as well, playing games in obscurity. So, yeah, we're going to learn the tale of the season this weekend. And honestly, if we lose like we just did or worse, and I was Dan Morgan, I'd be working on polishing up that resume`. 
    • Lol I don’t understand why everyone is liking that post and quoting it, it’s from last season. Did I miss something? 
    • At this point, I don't want anymore fools gold from Young. He either needs to be in the MVP conversation  (lol) or I want to get blown out every game until he is off the team. Our front office just isn't bright enough to handle anything in between.
