Godfrey better have his head on a swivel

The three biggest factors in this game (coming from a Cards fan) are:

1) Can the Panthers front four get pressure

If you guys are forced to blitz Warner will make you pay. It is his best attribute, but if you get pressure with your linemen he will continually throw into double coverage until you make him pay

2) The weather. Warner sucks in bad weather, plain and simple. If it rains the game almost isn't worth watching. The only thing I can hope for is that our players are pumped, both lines are healthy and Whiz's trickery can overcome the odds.

3)Can the Cards run with remote success? If the answer to this question is yes it will be a very tough game for you guys.

4) Can the Cards slow down your running attack? If the Redbirds can force Jake to beat them then I like our chances. Hopefully DRC will hold Smith to less than 70yds and a TD. He has proven himself to be the best up-and-coming CB in the game right now (5picks in the last 5 games) and I cant wait for this matchup. I guess this was two things, but what can you expect from a Cardinal fan?

    • Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.
    • I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
