Yeah the Jets are definitely better than their record suggests and the Panthers seem to play so much worse on the road than at home. I'm definitely not going into the game overconfident. Hopefully with the way our run defense has been, we can clamp down their offense and put ourselves in good position for the win. I think it'll boil down to whether we beat ourselves. < 2 turnovers = Panthers win

While we could certainly lose to them, they are really not better than their record suggest.  They have the worst sack ratio in the league. They have the worst passing stats in the league.  They can run the ball, but at least on paper, they should be a good match for us as our run defense is good while our pass defense is not.

Well, Justin Fields is fuging terrible. I have literally been telling people this since his 2nd year in the NFL. 

I will never understand how people don't see it.

They ride Tyrod and they actually could win a few games.

Totally agree.  I would take Young 100x over before I selected Fields.  He looked totally lost yesterday.  Curt Warner was going off on him. He has no sense of timing with his receiver.  He waited several times instead of throwing the ball where the receiver is supposed to be.  He waited until the receiver made his cut and the DB was able to recover and defend the pass.

He's the reason why Denver has 9 sacks yesterday.

I hope they switch to Tyrod after our game.

Fields can run around and make things happen. Of course, those things are not always good things. My hope is we get the 9 sacks, -10 yards passing version of Fields, and not the 1 that rushed for 1000 yards as a qb.

I would wager odds highly favor we see neither of those guys Sunday.   Those are sort of the extreme ends of the Fields spectrum. 

Fields accounted for 300+ total yards vs Dallas, 260 + vs Steelers, 300+ vs Phins.  Over 200 passing in those 3.   

Broncos likely are the actual #1 D in the NFL to date as they are #2 in yards and #2 in pts

It would be very Panthers to go up there and get absolutely boat raced and provide them with their 1st win.

Or fug something up and blow a close one at the last minute. 
To me that is even more Panthers.

He cannot abuse Jackson if he doesn't play. 

Felt like just the other week Jackson was everyones favorite new corner and the best Morgan move….

life changes quick.

He has his limits. He is good but not good enough for receivers of Pickens skill level. I knew that and Evero should have known that.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
