What I expect this Sunday...


PantherBrew

Recommended Posts

I expect the offensive line to have its best game of the season, by far. I see many of you guys are predicting 'career day' for Pep, and it may happen.

These guys are pros, however almost all of them also have big time egos, and Jordan Gross has been listening to people talk about Peppers all year, especially this week. And I know Jordan has gotten off to a slow start (partially because his knee), but I really don't think Pep will get any sacks off Gross, maybe some close hits but no sacks. Let's not forget, Jordan is no slouch by any means, and he will be just as motivated as Pep this week.

But there is no doubt that Pep will be moving around if he is not getting by Gross, and he will probably find more success on the right side of the offense. With that said, dont expect much of Goodson on offense, I think Fox will have some big boys in the backfield helping on chips and blitz pickups.

One thing we must do, an absolute must is... running screen plays and draws on plays when we expect them to blitz, especially towards Pep because is going to be flying around, going deep in the back field to get a sack. One thing that is undeniable, and maybe not possible anymore, but when the Panther rushing attack was at its best, we were getting 1st downs on 3rd and longs on draw plays.

I think the team that has at least two big Defense/Special teams play and doesn't make retarded mistakes, wins.

We will win Sunday. 20-10

I can buy into that.

I think the Bears defense is going to end up looking like ours has the past few games. Really good at first, but it will slowly wear down because of their horrible offense play (led by Todd Collins).

Peppers, though, may not always be on Gross. In fact, I doubt he'll line up from him more than ten times during the game. He's going to put himself across from Schwartz, and try to beat us on the right hand side. (Atleast, if I was the defensive coordinator, that's exactly what I would do, because seriously? Which match-up do you like better? Gross vs. Peppers or Schwartz vs. Peppers?)

I think our TEs are going to get utilized a load. Drawing the linebackers out, so that guys like Urlacher can't stack up in the box.

I think Carolina wins 24-9.

I remember everytime peppers was supposed to have a career day against every backup scrub tackle we played...then we'd see him get pwned by a TE or ferociously manhandled by third string talent. Bears fans are gonna be in for a small taste of frustration...

I have been surprised, regardless of stats Peppers has brought his A game every week thus far.

for some reason i think the score will be 24-10 Bears...with Hester returning 1 all the way to the house on ST...i know baker is great but he wont be able to to give us good field position based on where we go 3 and out from...i think pep will either cause a fumble he returns for a TD or someone else will...and Forte will score the other TD...i think will will strike first with a great long drive ending in a field goal...making it 3-0...the pep TD happens after a 3 and out caused by our D puts us back on O...making it 3-7...bad kick return...3 and out..punt..than the hester td..than forte td...now 3-21..we score again on a goodson KOF return for 6:cornut:

    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset. 
    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…
