More like.... Lame Gabbert. amiright/.???

Will probably be one more piece of evidence we made the right choice. I was so scared all the way up to the draft we were gonna take Gabbert...I would've been happy about ANY of the popular choices except Gabbert or Bowers..

Charles Johnson & Greg Hardy will welcome him with open arms.

It will be Gabbert vs Panthers D and Newton vs Jaguars D. Neither guy plays Safety last I checked.

[Shufdog]

No, it's the Panthers vs. Jags.

He'll throw for 400 as well with Pugh starting at safety...

No, I think it will be the Panthers D vs. Maurice Jones-Drew most likely.

I'm thrilled that Gabbert will be starting. He is no threat, but our defense is constantly scaring me. One minute we can't stop the run, and the next a reciever is streaking to the end zone with no one around. Anything can happen when you have busted coverage, or failed blitzes. Even so, I have such a low opinion of Gabbert's abilty that I am expecting a solid win by more than 7 points.

MJD is on a pitch count where Del Rio doesn't want him going over 25 carries in a game and our backup sucks.

[Zithers]

I'm worried about their ball control offense but that's it. If we can manage to stop the run or get a quick two-score lead like last week, we'll likely win. Only way we won't is if Gabbert somehow becomes Cam-esque and throws bombs for 400 yards which I doubt will happen.

There must not be anything going on in the NFL right now. I'm watching NFL Network, and nothing else has come across the ticker on the bottom of the screen except Breaking News: Blaine Gabbert will start against Cam Newton and the Panthers.

Hell they're talking about it right now.

Gabbert = canon fooder for Panthers DEs
