We're going to run the ball and beat the Rams on Sunday.

Assuming D. Will is back.

After this past Sunday's passing explosion what are the chances that the Rams are going to continue stacking the box on us?

Sure maybe they think it was a fluke, and they may still want to test us, but if that coach has any common sense, no way is he going to look at a tape where we threw for 308 yards and completely ignore the passing. If they do, I say bring it on.

But my gut tells me some teams, especially teams like the Rams are going to back off a bit now. That's gotta open up our run game. I see them trying a couple of times in the first quarter, but if Montana Moore pulls a repeat and burns them again over a few plays, they will back off for the remainder of the game. That's the first and most important thing. We need to come out passing in the first quarter and re-establish a continuation in our passing thread.

Which brings up the next point. Not wanting to get too far ahead, but this is going to be the key to winning other games going forward. I'm going to give Fox some credit this year and say he has tried a lot of new things with a lot of different personnel. And if we can get that run game going, and continue mixing things up it's going to continue giving other teams a bit of a headache trying to prepare for us.

If the run works this weekend and we win, we'll be yet a completely different team the week after. If we shuffle personnel around some more, it's going to make it even harder for teams to figure us out. We are in a good position of showing different faces and different strategies just about every Sunday keeping the element of surprise on our side. This team's new found flexibility just may be its biggest weapon.

Montana Moore, LOL.. I bet I know whose jock strap you wish you could be

How did I know there would be at least one guy that would read that sentence and that's all he would read. CLT Panther, your originality and humor is out of this world. Have you tried Letterman?

Second reply and the thread is already at risk of being de-railed.

You obivously have not researched the Rams very well ...

We play press man corner on the outside as the majority set ...

According to Stats, LLC, opposing QB's are completing less than 38% of attempts against our corners Fletcher and Bartell when in man ...

I'm just not seeing Matt Moore as the one to buck this trend. He might find better success against our zone blitzes ...

Good luck ....

Fletcher and Bartell? I'm not knocking the corners cuz I've never even heard of them...

But no-name corners vs our no-name recievers...

Our win against the 49ers gave me hope, but this Sunday is going to be a tough test for panthers for sure.

Here's to a good game with no injuries!

Now carry in with your condescending posts!

Nothing condescending. I am concerned deeply about playing the 80's 49'ers led by Montana Moore!

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
