I like it. The thing on ESPN is now "Cam will be faced with rookie reality".....hmmm....I though he was supposed to face that last week, and in the preseason.

Our offense is going to be the thing keeping us in games this season, which feels soooo weird after the Fox defensive era, but I like it. Our DB's (mainly CB's) need to make a few good plays and we will be in the game.

It kinda feels like we're the "bad guys."

"Oh, those pesky Panthers are showing signs of having a legitimate QB who can make things happen for them? It's OK. Our heroes in Green Bay will show them who's boss!!! slurp slurp slurp"

Cam will be faced with another challenge. This is good. Either he goes out and tears it up the whole/most of the game or he has a bad game that he can learn from. Either way, against one of the better defenses in the NFL, it is a good thing.

LOL at this thread.

Yeah, we're all just silly. LOLZ!!!! I mean, why the fug would fans actually stay somewhat optimistic about going into a game with the defending Super Bowl champions? What we should do is just admit and accept defeat now so we can either be less-pissed if we lose or pleasantly surprised if we win. That's always a great theory.

Thank you for your valuable contribution to this thread, kind sir.

So take the points.

I have modest expectations for this one. I want to see a competitive game, a steady performance by Cam, a running game, competent D and maybe some Steve Smith magic.

Not saying it's impossible, but a win would be a ten gallon hat-full of gravy.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.

      Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.

      Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
