There's a few things that need to happen:

1. Turnovers - Run D isn't going to magically play better and so this is the alternative 

2. Run the Ball - For all the talk about the Eagles D, they did give up 160+ rushing yards against the Ravens last game. If there's a time to attempt a new Double Trouble with Hubbard and Brooks, this is the game. Also, Young may need to use his legs more to pick up yards. Basically, we're trying to outpossess the Eagles to limit exposing our run D as much as we can.

3. Breakout game - If we're passing, then XL/JT/Coker are going to need a breakout game. If BY can play as he has been recently, those balls better be caught.

No matter what happens, I'm just hoping for another solid, promising performance from Bryce against the #1 defense. If he throws 1-2 TD without any INTs or big mistakes then we know this is the real Bryce. They will probably be up 1-2 scores early and I hope he just doesn't try to be the hero and make silly mistakes and it ruins his confidence again.

If he is so fragile that one bad game ruins his confidence, then he is not the QB we need.

That's like, your opinion,  man. 

I know you’re referencing Lebowski, but who has fuged up bigger in a crucial situation than Chuba this year? No one. We’re not counting Bryce early in the year bc we were not in a position to win those games.

It it was a playoff game, it would be the worst play in franchise history over Kasey’s fugup in SB 38

I have no idea how we’d keep it close 

We can’t stop the run and that’s what the Eagles do best 

on the other side of the ball they have a great defense at all levels and we have the worst group of pass catchers in the league 

Exactly it.

Panthers have gotten better, but we're simply at too much of a scheme and talent disadvantage.  What we do worst (defend the run) is what we the Eagles are best at (run the ball).  We also don't have an obvious weakness or advantage that we can depend on.  Eagles have the defensive line to bottle our run game and none of our WRs can win on an island vs their CBs.  

This is the kind of game where it will be really difficult to blame the HC for how things go.  Obviously try not to lose by 50, but I'm just not sure you can reasonably expect us to keep this game close.

I just don't care. The game NEVER should have came down to the overtime period. 

You focus on what you want. 

It means nothing.

Bingo this sht is spot on, turnovers if not us running the ball effectively will do wonders and Bryce scurrying around keeping us moving forward even for a couple yards on 2&10 making 3&6 a very obtainable down and distance.

But number 3 would really move the needle for me if anyone of the three can have a breakout game vs this defense it could propel their development towards being a force for next season.

I had to quote p claw because below because he fuged up once literally once but Eddy P fuged up twice in the same game those kicks were probably more of a problem then Chubbas fumble honestly you understand a RB will fumble selectively with the amount of carriers he typically gets. But your kicker is supposed to do his job when given opportunity if he misses one ok but we definitely expect him to hit a dam 38 yarder hit that game ovaaa  he fuged us way harder then Chubba if you put it into football perspective

But it did.  And that play was the backbreaker.

it doesn’t matter what any fan really focuses on, but it does mean something for Chuba. Hope he learns from it.

You do it to well. Wouldn't want to put you out of work. 

Chubba feels terrible about it. 

It doesn't even get rated at all ass any worse play in the history of the Panthers.

+13.5 is wild. I think we cover that.

Still suspect a double digit loss.

I think its moved to 12.5 now. But I agree. I think it depends on whether or not they keep the foot on the gas. Obviously I hope for a win, but I just can't see it. This is absolutely our worst matchup this season. This will be the game that makes us go defense first round (and almost every other round) if we weren't already. Honestly I am starting to think they draft graham. I think Dan will fall in love with him.

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      By Icege · Posted

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
