Recommended Posts

nah we are gonna beat the seahawks.

retooled front 7 is going to make lynch a non factor forcing way too much on wilson to pull it out

I sure hope so. That oline ain't no joke though. Wilson should have a similar "slump" like Cam did as will Kap, Luck and Bob. NFL defenses are just too good to let the same trick beat them over and over. The players have to elevate their game. Cam has been working very hard on the fundamentals, footwork, awareness, timing etc. this is why Mr Newton will have the better season.

cam's "slump" had nothing to do with there being tape on newton, it all had to do with running a gimmicky offense that resulted in negative yardage running plays, slow developing plays in the backfield and one of the worst Olines in the league.

Yeah it seems so silly that teams can study individual players tendencies, habits and tells. I'm sure those guys are just drawing plays in the dirt with a stick. Not to discount chuds horrific play selection the first half of the year, to dismiss a NFL defensive coordinators ability to take tape on a player and come up with a scheme to stop him is ridiculous.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
