Dearest Ron Rivera,

Dear Ron,

If I were to circle one game the rest of the season that would piss off Big Cat more than any other to lose, it would be this week at home against John Fox.

Considering the strained relationship between these two during Fox's final year here, I think it is safe to say this is a must win game for you personally.

If you win, you just might buy yourself another year with more improvement this season.

If you lose, don't unpack anything else. Its a waste of energy.

Love,

Zod

Dear God. If Denver beats us or even worse blows us up big time, Rivera may be fired that night.

Lots of Panther fans are going to be in reality check mode a week from today.

Don't get me wrong, I loved the win yesterday but we beat a bad team and we have a legitimate SB contender and Peyton Manning rolling in here next week. Oh, and I almost forgot, a former coach who probably wants to score as many points as possible out of spite.

I don't think that you can assume that anyone would blow us out. After all the two supposed hottest teams in the NFL right now, the Falcons and Bears both escaped with a gift game handed to them at the end. Otherwise we pretty much controlled them throughout and beat both of them for 58 minutes. We can play close with anyone this year. Whether we can pull it out in the end is another matter.

We've already taken two "SB contenders" down to the wire this season. I'd say we're more than capable of beating Denver.

EDIT: looks like panthers55 beat me to it.

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
