CBS video preview: Panthers vs GB. No chance to keep it close. (video)

[Happy Panther]

We were supposed to get wrecked by Arizona, it wasn't even supposed to be close. I like these predictions from the "experts."

We were supposed to lose by 7...

That's right about the AZ game.

Last time I checked I think GB was favored by 11.5. If it's that close, then we can play with anyone.

I believe the line started at 10 inflated due to the Cam hype. Lots of smart money went on the pack to cover.

Packers (-10) over PANTHERS

I watched that Cards-Panthers game pretty closely last week and came away convinced that those are two of the five worst teams in the league: Arizona's secondary would have been the single worst thing I witnessed on Sunday if not for the final episode of Entourage, and Carolina was such a mess defensively that it made Kevin Kolb look somewhat competent (making matters worse, the Panthers lost Jon Beason for the season). But because they played each other, it seems like bettors mistakenly came away thinking, "Arizona might be back with Kolb!" and "Carolina's offense is gonna be exciting this year with Cam Newton and Steve Smith!" which is why both of their Week 2 lines landed three points too low. You'll see.

Ha ha. Two man rush. Ha ha. Yes. Cam for 15 yards. Good to see thay did not intirely fire dan rather. They moved him to sports! Dude with the stach, is the Alan Combs of sports.

Yep. Arizona tried blitzing and got burned. Green Bay has a couple of studs in the middle. If we don't get the run game going this could be a 3 interception day for Green Bay. Arizona has probably the worse secondary in the league. Smith was beating Richard Marshal for Christs sake.

You act as if Smitty hasn't beat the brakes off of Woodson before. I still put my money on Smitty against any corner in the league. I'm hoping the Packers feel arrogant enough to play him 1 on 1.
