I was seeing if if was supposed to rain this weekend, I went to weather.com and was surprised to see a picture of the Panthers on there. :blink: Anyways, we're number 10 on the list with our first game against the Bucs.

]#10: Carolina at Tampa Bay {September 9}

Let's begin by giving a shout-out to playing in September heat. There is no outdoor stadium that has to deal with the early-season heat and humidity like Raymond James Stadium, as you can see in the fast facts above.

September lies on the back end of Florida's "wet season", marked by slow-moving afternoon thunderstorms. There's also the fact that September is the heart of the hurricane season. Even an unnamed, slow-moving, disorganized, tropical system can spread heavy rain into the Sunshine State.

More often, it's Florida's trademark summer heat and humidity that takes its toll. While players have been through the drudgery of slogging through training camp in the heat, a September afternoon game in Tampa, when players aren't yet used to playing all 60 minutes of a game, can be challenging.

At least the schedule provided one small break, this divisional battle starts at 4:15 pm ET, pushing the fatiguing second half well past peak heating of the day.

      When we have everyone playing like they should, we can win the Cup. That has been the biggest problem when we get to the playoffs, but this year seems to be fixed mostly. We could have had multiple if we had done this in the past.

      Here we go Bryce Stan’s you should love this. Hell it may be one of you.  It has every cliche excuse and then some.  Unintentionally hilarious my limit was reached when he said Bryce had it hard because four play callers.

      JJ & Luke, episode 8

      By csx · Posted

      Luke goes in to the specifics of what he looked to accomplish in joint practices.  Basically they may work with someone on the opposing team to stress something they feel is a weakness in their own game in a different way that can be done with someone they are familiar with. That they can have predetermined stresses but since neither wants to get injured and it has absolutely no bearing on anything there is not the level of concern that would be in a preseason game.  He would also even chat with opposing OC.   It seems like an interesting nuance among the vets and savy pros.
