Ok this is getting out of control

Regardless of what the media said, NFL coaches took notice.  The saints beatdown was a statement game and NFL coaches on our schedule are looking at that tape trying figure out how to run the ball and slow that rush.

Sam is going to get blitzed a lot more going forward.    

This is playing out better than  some of us hoped.  We hoped to beat the saints...not give Payton the worst offensive performance of his tenure.  If you want to believe that Burns and Reddick beat those pro-bowl OTs because they had a different center, or coaches were out (not the OL coach btw), thats fine.  We'll  get to see the show again this season.

Has the media jumped the shark with the Panthers?  And I thought we were getting ahead of ourselves!  Apparently Panthers fever is contagious.

"Carolina could cruise to 8-0 start and contend with Tampa for divisional crown"

"Believe it or not, there’s an excellent chance for the Panthers to be the last undefeated team standing in the NFL within the next few weeks."

"An 8-0 start for the Panthers isn’t beyond the realm of possibility."

I think it has more to do with the schedule. Panthers play poo teams until the second half of the season.

Lots of story lines in Carolina

1.  Darnold reclamation project

2.  Phil Snow mystical defense

3.  CMC looks all world

4.  Burns looks elite

5.  Brady is a young guy who will get HC consideration

6.  Rhule has crazy contract given to him by richest owner in the league.

 

We keep winning and they’ll keep writing.  Especially if Panthers beat “America’s Team”.  Schedule lines up favorably on paper.  Enjoy the ride.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
