A few thoughts everyone should remember about Sunday

I think above everything else, we all know that our team, even without 52 and 58, generally has more talent around the board on offense and defense. But I think that if we are going to win this must-win game..the Cats should remember the following:

1. I know he hasn't so far, but Cam is getting more hype in the past 3 days than he has since the season started...he needs to keep his head on straight and keep being the composed QB we know he is. Don't eat up the hype too much!!

2. If we can run the football so Cam doesn't have to throw the ball 50 times, we will WIN...there just isn't any stopping this offense if it's balanced..especially if we can get it in to the fuging endzone.

aaannndd 3. This team is going to have a gameplan. They've seen the film of Cam lighting up 2 teams now, at the end of the day, they are going to focus in on how to keep him from scorching them in any way possible. Also, they are going to find out how to beat this defense

I have a feeling that Gabbert isn't going to come out and try to beat Carolina deep, if they can get MJD some solid carries and get the short passing game going, they might be able to drive down the field rather easily.

I think this game is going to be a shootout..so let's hope Carolina brings a better gun.

You should have told him this before he just discounted every Elite QB in the NFL in a very slick way: "This is no HOF league" ;)

Cam's going to be cool and poised, but I get the sense he's not the type to be afraid to tell Brady...."You're my hero, and I respect you, but I'm going to kick your ass, not kiss it"

Cam doesn't crave the spotlight, but he doesn't shy away from it either. I know it's weird for us to have a leader like this...but yeah, he's going to end up a little on the cocky side. I can already see that in him. Wait until he strings 3 wins back to back.

You think he has haters now? Just wait.

That is a fact. Right now, Cam is getting a lot of praise. After he wins several in a row then eventually has a subpar game (for him), the haters will be out in full force ripping him. Jealousy is pathetic, but jealousy is building in people right now with Cam, just like last year.

You mean the Jags coaching staff didn't take the week off???

Damn it.

Would be awesome if we win man. Can't wait to watch espn after we win a game.

Let me go ahead and recap it for u ahead of time... Cam throws for over 400 again, we get the W, D did well in shutting down MJD... Running game coming along, but still not where we want it.

BUT it will be said that we played a rookie QB, with no real threats other than MJD... And the real test as to whether we're pretenders or contenders will be the following week against Breezy and the Saints. We'll always be the under dog against premier teams and rightfully so.

If you've been a fan for more than 2 seconds than you already know that historically speaking, we exceed expectations by a lot when playing that role.

Either way we're gonna do big things this year! Quote me on it...

    • except for Bryce.  Chandler don't want nothing to do with that man  
    • Witnessing and FEELING the NFL bend us over and grab our ankles in Super Bowl 50 in real-time…  that was the turning point for me.  I have not viewed the NFL, or pro sports for that matter, the same, ever since.  Look at the NBA.  You’re talking about astronomical odds for the #1 pick on the teams in the back-end of it.  The Mavericks mysteriously and inexplicably out of nowhere trade their franchise players - one of the biggest stars in the league, and an international superstar…  and of all places, to the LA Lakers, with LeBron.  They get back an oft-injured Anthony Davis.  Their team, including Davis, end up getting injured to the point they barely have enough healthy players to play games as the year goes on.  Their GM takes a ton of heat and never really offers a reasonable, not plausible explanation as to why they did the trade in the first place.  He also states that they never took any calls from any other teams, they never fielded any other offers for Luka, and they didn’t even take the offer elsewhere to see what other teams offered.  Absolutely no due diligence.  Now ask yourself, why would a team do that?  Not just in sports, why would any business do such a thing?  Not maximizing your return?  Not doing due diligence?  Fast forward a couple months…  the GM has been lambasted, ridiculed, and belittled the entire time since.  The lottery comes around, and the Mavs, who were just in the NBA Finals the year before, barely miss the playoffs due to all of their injuries.  Davis, Kyrie Irving, etc., all their best players were injured.  They had the smallest mathematical chance at getting the #1 pick.  Guess who got the #1 pick? The Mavericks.  So this plays out like the NBA asked the Mavs to do them a solid.  One of their blue-blood, prestigious, big market franchises needed a bump with LeBron getting older.  LA throws together a garbage package, sending them an aging star and some garbage picks for one of the biggest stars and historically one of the most incredible offensive players in NBA history, and the NBA ensures the Mavs will beat powerball odds and get the #1 pick, when it just so happens that Cooper Flagg, projected to be a generational talent, is coming out in the draft.  You scratch our back, we’ll scratch yours. Also, who got the #2 pick?  The Spurs.  A year after obtaining the #1 pick to acquire another touted generational talent in Wembanyama, after a 20+ year run as one of the most successful NBA dynasties in history.  They suddenly have their first bad year, get the #1 pick ahead of us, the Hornets (after wallowing in mediocrity for decades), and get Wemby, and now get the #2 pick the following year.     There was talk here earlier in the offseason about things lining up for us to go to the Super Bowl this year, and at the time, I half jokingly said I could see it, as the patsy for Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson’s redemption arc.  Again, after all of the poo that happened in Super Bowl 50, then watching the refs stand by idly over the next two years while week after week our opponents took cheap shot after illegal cheap shot on our once-in-a-lifetime talent in Cam Newton…  that poo took a lot of the heart out of it for me.  I’ve said for years, if big money involved, corruption is inherent.  There’s no way around it.  I’ve accepted that every professional sport is influenced by the money.  And storylines bring big money.  It has become purely entertainment with a small pinch of competition.  At least the WWE tells you exactly what they are, and thus, you can enjoy it for what it is.  The NFL and NBA specifically, specialize in crushing the hearts of fans who believe it’s still real and untainted.  fug Goodell and Silver.
