Bright Spots


Happy Panther

Recommended Posts

Now that Panther nation is finally comfortable with getting mad at losses, here are the bright spots i saw

1) Deangelo's Run - He didn't have much beyond that but this run was great. He was cornered at about the 20 yard line and juked twice to sneak down the line. Came right at me too in the end zone. Crowd was pumped.

2) Smith's TD - Classic escapism by Newton and a great catch to keep smith on pace to break the single season record.

3) Newton Scramble's for 3 yards - He knew exactly where the first down marker was and made a cut inside that really no other QB will make in the league today.

4) Charles Johnson #95 - Got the call as the last guy out of the tunnel and made plays all day

5) James Anderson #50 - Did anyone see the play where he saw something on offense and started going crazy? First he touched both shoulders then he scraped his chest - all signals to the defense. Anyone have a clue what these signals mean? Then he ran right to the ball to make a tackle for a loss.

Others?

I think he was wiping his chest, as in, "wiping" off the original blitz call. Then Brees countered, then he called the blitz back on.

He was turning on beast mode for that play using the swag Cam gave him

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
