Person says the Panthers will win this one

I initially liked the Giants here before diving deeper into Mayfield’s Week 2 numbers. Basically, Mayfield was unbeatable in Week 2 games in Cleveland. Granted, he didn’t exactly beat up on great teams, but the Giants don’t fall into that category, either. Barkley will get his yards, but the Panthers will get to Daniel Jones, who was pressured on 18 of his 26 dropbacks against the Titans. On offense, Mayfield gets over his first-half yips from last week and Ben McAdoo remembers to give the ball to McCaffrey and wins his revenge game against the team he coached from his slicked-back hair days. Panthers 24, Giants 20.

As tthe game, I'm comfortable with the notion that Mayfield should look better this game.

Far less comfortable that we'll see improvement from the defense.

I think Baker will be more comfortable simply because he will be facing lesser talent on the DL.  Will he play good? Who knows.  Gunslingers can go both ways.  But I think we will have opportunties for big plays in the pass game. 

really hope we see something better from McAdoo though in terms of gameplan.  We need more CMC and he has to get away from being so stuck on the same formations.  NFL Sirius was talking about that other night about how McAdoo has always been too fixated on his 11 personnel looks and it is going to limit CMC.   Not limit the ability to give him touches but from an actual production stand point.   This team is going to have to be balanced or even leaned toward the O this year to win games.

If we figure out how to stop the run we could blow them out.

Yeah, I don't have much faith in this defense unfortunately. I can see us getting the W but it may not be pretty.

we don't have the bodies to stop the run IMO without compromising our coverage.  But this is a game we likely could afford to do that.

If we jump out to a 14-0 lead or something like that we could neutralize their run game a bit.

Well that settles it

I’m not confident we could even win this game if the Giants plane got rerouted to Iceland and we had to play the Little Giants from the kids movie.
