Next Up: @ San Diego


Recommended Posts

This Sunday our Carolina Panthers take on the 5-8 San Diego Chargers. Many of us Huddlers, myself included, will be in attendance this weekend representing the Huddle.

Admittedly I haven't watched a single Chargers game this year other than when Peyton Manning and the Broncos staged one of the best comebacks of the season.

What can we expect from the Chargers? What are the keys to the game? Hopefully our starters that were out this previous game are back on the field and in the mix.

I know Ryan Mathews has struggled this year as has Rivers. They also are coming off of a big win after defeating the Steelers in Pittsburgh 34-24. I think we need to continue to pressure the QB and stop the run first and foremost on defense. Rivers does have some decent targets at his disposal and I'm always at least somewhat worried about our secondary.

I think Cam continues his mistake-free play this weekend and the running game contributes as well. However, this team seems to let me down time and time again after a big win and this time they are playing in another timezone which could be problematic. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Prediction? 23-17 Carolina.

A lot of people thought the KC game was a gimme as well. San Diego jumped up quickly on Pittsburgh last week and manged to hold on. Also , say what you want about Norv T. and Phillip Rivers, in the month of December they are money. Total team effort I think we come out with the win.

    • Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game
    • I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country. 
    • Certainly not going to miss his constant whiffs on sacks and tackles.
