Fowler picks Panthers in an upset

Recommended Posts

Seems he went 15-3 in the last 18 games picking against us. He is stepping out on a limb.

Because the best Second City alums have always been masters of improvisation, and the Panthers will have to do exactly the same thing in Chicago Sunday to come away with an upset victory.

There will be a moment or two that all hinges on improv -- what Cam Newton while being chased on the full run by Julius Peppers, or what Jay Cutler does when he sees a small window that might open for a 50-yard pass or might close for an interception.

I think these teams have similar talent levels, so a couple of snap decisions will make the difference.

Uncertain defense, weak secondary, unpredictable QB performance, strong linebacker core, devastated by injuries....just to name a few.

Oh definitely, I agree with you totally, just thought it was funny. The battle will be won up front for sure though.

It seems to me that every time a game is predicted to be close it isnt and when predicted to be a laugher well it isnt. So with that logic in place i see one of two things happening either we blow the doors off the bears or.... well i guess i just see one thing happening! :)

Besides last year when the Panthers were inept, when the Bears play the Panthers, it tends to be close games. But who doesn't remember some times where Steve Smith has torched their secondary. I expect to see that again, especially with a guy like Cam who can throw it down the entire damn field with a flick of the wrist.

Unfortunatley for you Dimbee, Cam had an average game last week so he'll be hungry. Olsen will be hungry. Rivera will be extra hungry.

C.Harris will be tweeting from the sideline and count Peppers in if he feels like it.

    • My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again. 
    • Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise
    • Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
