Okay, this day has been down right scarey.

At lunch my wife and I were talking football. She wanted to know who was playing today and who to root for. It's rare to watch football on Sunday and it not be the Panthers so my wife, who loves the Panthers but really could care less about about the NFL until the playoffs, wanted to know some information about the game she "had" to watch.

During the dicussion I made some predictions. I picked NO over ATL, PHI over NYG, PIT over DAL and BAL over WAS. I also made some predictions about tomorrow's game but more on that in a little while.

Before the games started, I turned the channel to one of the Sunday Ticket Channels and pressed the menu button. (For those who do not know, Direct TV has a interactive menu with Sunday Ticket that gives you scores, standings and stats.) One of the thing I always love to do is take the trivia quiz. For the first time ever I got all five questions correct. Good start to the afternoon.

Then the Falcons and Giants lost. I was so happy. My wife laughed at me and said "Lucky Guesses."

As we were watching the Steelers and Cowboys play I was getting really pissed. I truely hate the Cowboys and throught my luck that helped in my two early game picks had died. Then suddenly the game took a turn and Pittburgh scored a feild goal.

My wife chuckled and said "Too little too late, no way they are going to win this game." I imediately replied and said " Watch, they are going to hold Dallas to a three and out and then score a TD to tie the game."

Sure enough, Pittsburgh did just that. Then before they kicked off I turned to my wife and said "Pittsburgh is going to win the game. Watch, the Steelers are going to get a INT for a TD. Just watch and see."

My wife rolled her eyes and chuckled a litte again. Then it happened. It was like I was in that new Adam Sandler movie and everthing I said was coming true. Steelers get the pick-6 and win the game. My wife could barely take it. She hates it when I am right and even more so when it proves her wrong.

As of right now the Ravens are beating the 'Skins 14-0 at the half.

So hopefully my powers last longer than just this Sunday. If they do, the Panthers will win tomorrow 24-14. DeAngelo will have a spot light game getting close to if not over 200 yards and Peppers will come up big with 3 sacks. That was my prediction at lunch today. So far so good.

      I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
