This week John Fox and the Broncos come to town for a 1pm matchup. The Huddle continues its 9th season of putting on a donation tailgate with all proceeds going to Toys for Tots at the end of the year. Members of the Huddle have donated well over $20,000 and over 600 bikes to Toys for Tots over the years. Every single game over 8 seasons have been sponsored by posters and companies alike and this year is fully sponsored as well. Posters or companies sponsor all the food and non-alcoholic drinks and fans come and partake while leaving a donation in the bucket. 100% of all monies used to purchase bikes donated to Toys for Tots at stadium.

This weeks sponsor is poster Argus Plexus. Please thank him for his generosity because with sponsors it makes the whole day go easier.

The menu this week will be catered from Joel's Pizzeria 5668 International Dr. Suite A Charlotte, NC 28270. The food will be various NY style pizzas, several different kinds of pasta trays, garlic cheese bread, and 150 wings various styles as well as other sides. Please leave a good donation this is incredible food as much as you want delivered hot and fresh from his restaurant. He will go into work at 8am to prepare this food for us and deliver it hot out of the oven his restaurant is 10 minutes from downtown. You can't get food like this in the stadium period.

Here is the usual info, and any other questions about the tailgate please direct to this thread:

Where? WE HAVE A NEW LOCATION THIS YEAR DUE TO DEMOLITION OF THE OLD LOT. WE ARE LOCATED AT A LARGE LOT AT THE INTERSECTION OF TRYON, 3RD ST, AND CHURCH. WE WILL HAVE TENTS WITH A HUDDLE BANNER ON IT. Basically if you walk into the lot from Tryon St, you will run right into us.

What? Lots of good food and non-alcoholic drinks. BYOB if you want to drink your own booze. Tents for rain or for shade provided as well as chairs for people that need them.

When? We start at 8am Sunday. Get there early for the good food and to hang out with other Panthers fans like yourself.

Who? During the course of the day from 6am, usually 50-70 people pass through. You never know who will show up and opposing fans are certainly welcome. If you have no other place to tailgate and want to maximize the gameday experience this certainly kicks ass over just pulling your car up to the stadium an hour before and walking in. You'll get better food here than any heat lamped fries or pretzels you'll get in the stadium and have a good time tailgating no matter what the score is for the game.

Any other questions this is the thread to ask in.

Mix em a little stronger that day guys. Pop a few extra caps. Don't let the delicious grub and sweater scenery deter some serious noise for this game. If huddle-gates could have a theme (and I think they all should) this week should be NOT PEYTON PLACE with a strong emphasis to be uncharicteristically loud in "appreciation" for a HOFer who made it back ..er whatever.

Owner of restaurant is getting in early sunday at 8am to start making the food at his restaurant and delivering it personally at 11am to our tailgate spot. Last time he did this it was a huge hit most of the food was gone. It's a lot of variety and something for everyone unlimited.

Please don't just try to slink in with a few $1's and eat 3 plates of food. One pasta dish would be at his restaurant like $10 and this is several different ones, unlimited pizza, garlic bread, and wings plus other sides.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
