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.

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
