Athletics’ vic Tafur, picks Panthers to win Sunday

His write up pretty much says it all 

Arizona Cardinals(-4.5) at Carolina Panthers | 1 p.m. ET Sunday, Fox

Sucker. Me. You. Anybody talking up the Panthers and Bryce Young last week. Ooof, he was terrible. Two interceptions, two fumbles and a plethora of off-target throws. Worse, you can tell the Cowboys had no fear going against him. I can almost hear Micah Parsons telling his teammates, “This guy isn’t beating us.” Especially when he had to throw and was sacked six times in the second half. The Cardinals do not have a big pass rush, but Baron Browning is making an impact since coming over in a trade with Denver. The linebacker ranks 15th in pressure rate in the last five weeks at 15.4 percent. The wildly inconsistent Cardinals are in the playoff race, ran all over the Patriots last week and the Panthers are a little soft in that regard. … Yeah, there is plenty of room to jump back on the Panthers bandwagon and we’re begrudgingly hopping on — only because my hands wouldn’t work to pick the Cardinals as a road favorite.

The pick: Panthers

you'll have more fun at Carowinds, it's just 20 minutes south of BoA

Nahhh. I live out of state now and visiting for Christmas.  Got to go when you can for some of us. Last home game I went too was when we beat Lions in 19 degree weather. Vikings overtime loss before that one. Keep Pounding.

Good for you !

it is really  hard to watch this team at the stadium  in the Tepper era

a couple of down years with JR lead to better things 

bad years with Tepper, well, resulting in abysmal record and a team full of ‘just a guy’

…but, even the down years, time with friends and the other team had stars  …saw some great ones

i wish you a big time and fun with friends and or family

    • But that's the point, if the locker room feels that way, then you're going to upset them by still keeping Bryce around and playing him over the Top 10 pick, as opposed to bringing in a vet to start until the rookie is ready. Again, it goes one of 3 ways... 1. Bryce plays well enough to earn an extension 2. Bryce still sucks and we draft his replacement who starts Week 1 with a new QB as his backup 3. Bryce still sucks, we draft his replacement in the 1st, but they start the season backing up a new vet QB who was brought in to be his mentor. With an OUTSIDE chance at a 4th option where Bryce plays well enough to convince the team to let him play out the 5th year option and then make a decision.  Which I can't see it happening, but there is still a non zero chance of that happening I guess. The only way we draft a QB next year and still have Bryce on the roster, is if we're taking someone in the middle rounds hoping to develop them as a long term backup to Bryce.
    • I hear you. But I am not absolving Legette just because he is from my neck of the woods or anything else.  Tge comment was more about the fans uneven application of blame.  I do agree that there is a noticeable disconnect between him and the QB and that he might do better with a more polished and capable delivery man.  Abd don’t feel that they used XL right, or at least how I expected it to look.  And that could be a function of a reticent WB that shies away from that style of attack. I mean it was either him or Canales that pretty much eliminated downfield from the playbook - even while we see guys running free at times. It Could work if they commit to it.  Whoever isn’t committing. 
    • Lot of passion there.  Look, if Bryce plays down to the level that we feel the need to draft a QB high, you don’t think the locker room might be ready for anything that helps them win?   There are s lot of angles to this that could come into play depending on what happens this year.
