Panthers vs Bengals (Don't get too excited)

[DickolausJ]

Think of the Bengals as last years Panthers. Their starting QB actually retired instead of choosing to stay on the team because the Bengals wouldn't trade him stating that "Cincinnati is where quarterback careers go to die." They traded their number one receiver who had been disgruntled with the team for some time.

No one can believe Marvin Lewis is still around and is by all accounts is a lame duck coach just waiting to get fired.

The team won 4 games last year and so far in the preseason they have lost both of their games to scores of:

34-3 and 27-7...ewww

If you also look at the Giants team we played I can point to some glaring negative omens for that team as well.

I have optimism for the Panthers in the future. I think our team will only get better as the season goes on. Just take this game with a grain of salt, and don't look to deep into it if we crush the Bengals.

Look at it as a good game for Newton to get more reps and get more comfortable with the offense; and for the DTs, WRs and CBs to continue to improve.

Let's just have some long sustaining drives with good 3rd down efficiency.

So if we lose to the bengals, then we can all go ape poo?

My concern in this game is for our defense... not Cam or our offense.

If we let them get more than 10 points on us before the start of the 4th quarter, we have serious... serious problems on the D side of the ball.

And if our D is garbage, it doesn't matter if Newton was throwing like Tom Brady and running like Vick... we aren't gonna win games.

I am under the impression that the default reaction of most Huddlers is bat poo insanity and overreaction.

Its the 3rd Preseason game. Both teams are trying to win and bounce back from tough losses to raise the spirits of the club.

While this game isn't as serious as a regular season game and no one will tell you it is both clubs really want a W.

I'm expecting the Panthers to take it.

this.

i already pointed this out in another thread. the defense will be the reason Carolina will or won't win games...too much pressure will be put on cam (or Clausen) to carry the team if the defense doesn't produce.
