Looks like we get to face another rookie QB in two weeks (well, third since we got Dalton in the pre-season but whatever).

Hopefully Cam will ball early which forces Ponder to win with his arm instead of letting AP run all over us.

Now we just need Matt Hasselbeck to get benched or hurt for Jake Locker...

That's the game you pick? One where the other running back is one of the best in the league and can single handidly dominate a game? One where their best strength is matched up against our biggest weakness?

They might rename the stadium after the day AP has.

I retract my win.....dang.

Steve Hutchinson will make Fua his little bitch boy and AP will rush for 298.

Any team with a pulse, a running back, and an offensive line scares the bejesus out of me.

Our defense is on the level of a mediocre SEC team right now.

TRD is right. Panthers are gonna have to go up big early to avoid getting thrashed by by Peterson. I could easily see him having 120 yards and 3 touchdowns.

I do think we'll beat the Skins this Sunday.

secondary isn't bad, the LBs are playing average, but the DTackles are terrible. I find it hard to believe that there aren't better players available than Fua/McClain

The only games we can win now are versus rookie QBs? Man has the tune changed around here in the past 2 or 3 weeks. After the Jags game the NFL was officially put on notice and now we look foward to games where rookies are starting for any chnace of a 'W'. I'm certainly glad work has been too busy lately for me to watch the bandwagon fall apart week-by-week.

I'm available. Been making sales calls for the last 14 years, but I can slap on the pads and take up a double team.

      Yea when teams see a gun charge they rightly pause but this seems like a big misunderstanding.

      Sorry man you lost me at "Teppers have evolved as owners". Limped into playoffs at 8-9 not even above .500 Tepper is trash as an owner bro and that's not even a discussion at this point. 37-83 w/l ratio. Nuff said.... Morgan tho, he's cooking and it ain't cuz of Teppers leadership

      D-Mo on FA & some of my general thoughts

      By TD alt · Posted

      After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...
