this is a trap game if I've ever seen one

Thursday night/short week (check)

away game (check)

Houston team who no one believes in but has been competitive their first two games (check)

Starting a rookie QB who we don't have much film on (check)

 

The panthers should win this game, that being said we have really left off the gas peddle in both our first two games. If we show up and do that for four quarters in Houston I could totally see Houston winning a low scoring slugfest and us all standing there scratching our nuts

i can also see the Panthers blow out the Texans....and we'll still stand there scratching our nuts because that's how we roll here at the Huddle.  🙃

Yes but I don’t think Rhule will allow players to underestimate their opponent.

In the pressers the players are saying the right things.  Snow was up all night Sunday.  

They seem all business.

Houston is NOT as bad as team as everyone says.  Probably 7 win team if Watson played.  They have some O weapons if Davis has time to get it to them and Ingram can run the ball.

We showed a lot of tape against the Saints so now everyone has something to study.

We should beat this team but....

Any given Thursday.

Saints wasn’t a trap game. We were at home and they were favored. Houston with their backup QB is a great example of a trap game.

I like the Thursday night game because it’s fun to watch and then potentially have a nice wide open Sunday. Being on the road for a Thursday night game is tough for the team. It was an older article but one I read had Thursday night home teams winning at an over 62% win rate versus over 56% normal home team win rate.

Maybe you don’t recall our last on the road Thursday night game but I do and it weren’t pretty. I’d be happy with any type of win and then a nice long break. 

I remember.  

It's all good.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce

      Yea Bryce was definitely a top half qb the second half of last season but I'm not sure Canales is 100% sold on him.  Like I've said in another post I think that's part of why we talked to so many South Carolina players in the draft process.  I think they are doing early due diligence on Sellers just in case.
