Panthers vs. Colts superbowl?

I call it.

I know, i know, i'm jumping the gun a little. But seriously, that presents an interesting matchup... how do you think we'd fare against them? I'd imagine a game very similar to the one we played against the Broncos... not in the final score so much as matchups and strategies.

It would be interesting, but no way Indy makes it to the SB. yeah they have won the last oh what 8/9 games they have played, but im pretty sure they havent blown opponents out the way we have, Cincy doesnt count haha.

Defense would be the key in this game and I dont see them stopping our run game....If they did Smith would make some key plays (as always.)

But if our DT's arent 100% getting pressure in Mannings face would be hard and they could just burn Lucas all day.

I can see the colts going all the way. I see them beating the titans as well as the steelers.

Our run game would gash them like nobody's business... 'finesse' doesn't work on double trouble. I think they'd try a denver-esque tactic of stacking the box early to force us to pass, and then smitty would have a hayday. and like the broncs, they'd be pass-happy all day long, and the game would be decided by whether or not our pass D could step up to the plate.

I think we'd win it.

Is this something that you and "Chucky" discussed at McDonalds? You're on a roll this morning.

Agreed. For some reason I've been thinking both the Panthers and Colts would end up in the SB. It does seem unlikely, because the Colts don't have the best playoff track record, other than the SB year of course. But I think this year's team is different. As for the Panthers, I'm a complete homer, so I'm just assuming they'll go all the way. :ihih:

    • It’s a fan message board. Fans are going to debate players. Especially the QB. I hope no one is genuinely upset about any of the dialogue on here. 
    • Teddy Bridgewater was a check down QB….saying that doesn’t mean that he literally can’t and won’t throw downfield in a season.  Bryce Young was never drafted to be big armed downfield passer.  I don’t get those out defending him when it’s pointed out that he just  isn’t that.   And finding a game or two where he goes downfield doesn’t change much.  Because all QBs eventually go downfield.  Just like a Delhomme or Favre will play it safe in some random games.  Doesn’t mean they aren’t gunslingers that got gambling in their DNA. 
    • Yeah, Fitzgerald was smart to sign with the panthers--not sure how many NFL teams were in the Market....I was surprised to see Morgan re-sign Tuttle and Ray--even if Ray's contract is completely unguaranteed--but with Brown, Wharton, Brown III, Robinson, Cam Jackson--maybe Crumedy--Tuttle could be excellent depth--but at DE, not DT, imo.  Once again, it appears that Morgan may have found UDFAs who have a shot making the team--last year, there were 2 who contributed in a meaningful way.  This year, I see CBs Thornton and Reid with a legitimate shot to make the roster.  I also think LB Nomura has a legit shot (Morgan has to love this guy) as well as LB Bam Martin Smith from USC.  Finally, I think one of the safeties will stick. In all, I expect 1-2 CBs, 1 LB, 1 S, 1 OL, 1 K to make this team. Predictions:   CBs Thornton and Reid make the 53-man roster.  LB Tuasivi Nomura makes the 53-man roster as a ST ace and ILB depth OL Michael Tarquin may make the roster to groom as a potential RT replacement for Moton.  Moton, BC, and Nijman are on expiring contracts.  While I like what I am hearing about Kandra, the OG room is very crowded.  Lewis, Hunt, Zavala, Kingston--but he could compete for the 4th G job. S:  Trevian Thomas, Isaac Gifford are probably the front runners, but Jack Henderson from Minnesota might be able to win a S spot as well.  I expect all three will not make the 53, but the darkhorse name to watch is Henderson. Henderson's Pro day: Minnesota DB Jack Henderson had arguably the BEST overall workout of any Safety in this entire draft: 40yd. 4.47 vertical. 40” Broad. 10’8” Shuttle. 4.15 3cone. 6.70 Bench. 12
