Final Game Day thread Panthers @ Falcons


Squirrel

Recommended Posts

While the Falcons have clinched a playoff spot, home field advantage is still at stake with a win today.

New Orleans could get home field if Atlanta loses, so there is no way the Falcons are going to rest starters or back off.

For all you fantasy geeks, the Panthers have never been able to stop Michael Turner and Roddy White has his way most of the time as well. Playing the Falcons defense, or anyone's defense for that matter, against the Panthers will get you some points today as well.

Meanwhile, the John Fox coaching staff and the team are probably happy this has all come to an end and they (the team and the coaches) will likely be as loose as we've seen them in years. Who knows, Carolina might score 17 today.

Panthers win 20-17 on a last second FG, this is the players SB. Nothing to lose, they will go ALL OUT. A chance to put a dent into ATL's home field? Division rival? its going to be a hard fought game. One thing is, Fox has never beaten Mike Smith and Matt Ryan at home. 0-2

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
