Pivotal Game on a short week

I am very wary of this game on Thursday. It has the potential to either make or break the season. The past couple weeks, the Panthers have seen an increasing number of injuries, some top players out for the season (Davis, Gross). A number of others have missed significant time (Godfrey, Muhammad, Hoover, Rosario). Is this injury trend going to continue, especially because of the short week?

If the Panthers can get through this game injury free and manage to WIN, I would be excited about the rest of the season. But I have this worry, that with the trend we've seen recently about injuries, might catch up to the restless Panthers. Here's to an injury free game!

Injuries happen and you can't predict them or avoid them. Many are fluke plays like Gross's injury on Sunday. Short weeks don't cause them. All we can do is try and create whatever depth we can and hope guys step up to fill the holes when players go down. We have a chance to win the next 3 games and get above 500. Hopefully we don't have any more season ending injuries but the bottom line is that's football.

Its a short week for them too. They are facing injuries to key players as well. If they (the team) want it bad enough..........they will go take it. The Phins want it...........I assure you, and they aren't gonna give it to us. We are gonna have to take every game from here on out by desire, force of will, and the determination to dictate the game to every foe .........every game if we want to be successful. We have to set the level of intensity. If they match it.........we take it up two nothces. Its all about heart from here on out. That and the coaches have to start playing and planning to win, and stop playing not to lose. We have to bury our opponents. We've been in position to do that, but we decided to play prevent defense, and offense. Attack damnit........ATTACK!!!!!c!

Two 4-5 teams with great running games, decent defenses, critical injuries and unfamiliar with each other. We need the win a bit more than them I'd say(seeing as he NFCS is NO's) and we have home field advantage. This will be a game where the little things count. ST and turnovers will determine the winner.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
