I'm predicting a win versus Chicago

As some of you may know if you've seen me post before, I'm very straight up. I tell it like it is. I predicted a loss against Arizona and a loss against Green Bay. Of course those games were closer than I anticipated, but I call them like I see them.

This week, now with Cam having a win under his belt, goes to Chicago where his head coach used to play and coach. Besides last years debacle, Carolina and Chicago tend to play close games. It's becoming sort of a rivalry. I'm picking Carolina to win this game because I predict a shootout and I don't think Chicago could win if it comes to that. Chicago's O-Line is putrid so I expect at least a sack from Charles Johnson and Greg Hardy. The LB's might get in on the fun too. 5 sacks on Cutler would be great to see.

On Defense, Carolina's secondary is ripe to be torn apart. I expect a couple of long TD passes from Cutler. But I also expect a few errant throws and possible INTs. Chicago does have a defense that could contain Cam Newton. Julius Peppers will no doubt grab a sack on Newton but who else can bring down Cam 1v1 on their defense? It'll be close, but Carolina wins a shootout.

Carolina 31

Chicago 27

Henry Melton. He was a RB in college now playing DT. He brings it.......and since he was a running back at Texas he is a lot more athletic than your standard NFL DTs. He also leads the team in sacks.

Wouldn't be surprised if you hear his name more than Peppers' on Sunday.

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
