CHFF: Cats hitting the NYG at the right time?

There may be nothing to it, but it's an interesting theory:

But here’s the most encouraging part for Carolina fans: the Panthers are rising rapidly – especially in their production on the ground – just as the Giants are showing weaknesses offensively.

As we noted Monday, the Giants have averaged just 94.3 YPG on the ground in their last three outings. The Panthers have averaged 187.0 YPG over the same three weeks – and two of their opponents are possible playoff teams (Atlanta, Tampa). Go back four weeks (to include the Lions), and the Panthers average 206.3 YPG on the ground.

As long as we clinch a playoff spot I am good. I do think it is ironic that we are catching NYG the same time (week 16) that the Giants played NE last year.

That game gave them the ins and outs of beating the Patriots and paid off in the Super Bowl.

Fox is pretty good at not losing to the same team twice in a season.

We win this weekend and TB loses. We should be fine.

Go Panthers

I think you have throw out the Lions game because lets face it everyone is having there way on the ground with them and to tell you the truth I don't know how much to look at Monday's game. It was just one week where it seemed everything went right for us. It was the best game I have watch in sometime but I think we need to hold up before we crown our running game. I hope and pray that this success continues but I'm not so sure it can. Eventually teams are going to come up with a way to slow it down and I haven't seen enough out of Jake lately to have to win it on his own.

Stop it. We play Denver this week. People say the Panthers players should not look ahead everyone is doing the same thing. GEEZ

Well it's not like we're going to have any effect on how the Panthers do this Sunday aside from showing up at the stadium and cheering them on...

What happened toTampa was having Kalil and Otah back and our receivers blocking very well. Add to that the fact that Williams and Stewart broke a number of tackles and that is the formula for a big running night on anyone. This was no fluke or a bad game by Tampa. We beat them in the trenches and wore them out on both sides of the ball. If we can play with that kind of intensity the rest of the way we should be able to play with anyone.

      Not looking good for TB. Buffalo and Habs fans are the worst so I will be cheering for the meteor.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By frankw · Posted

      Arguing about who had what and who did what with more is just going to end in the same charades. If we're going to waste a lot of hot air arguing then make it about something that cannot be denied. What you are seeing with your own two eyes. Cam Newton was a tremendously talented athlete albeit flawed in fundamental aspects. And although he played poorly in and lost a Super Bowl you cannot deny him that more often than not through his prime his teammates knew they could count on him to hold up his end of the bargain usually and be a key driving force for keeping them in games. Giving his defense much needed rest and motivation in wanting to match his grit as a competitor. That aspect is just not there with Bryce Young. Yeah he's dumped on the Falcons in a dome twice but what about his other 44 games? When has the Panthers defense the last three years ever looked at their starting quarterback and thought to themselves "man I'm so glad he's my QB"?

      Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.
