Official Panthers at Eagles Gameday Thread


Zod

Recommended Posts

Wanted to add a big day for Gettis as well to Zod's list.

 

Also, wanted to ask, has Rivera said how long the starters will play tonight?  I figure the whole first quarter, but I hadn't heard him address it anywhere this week.

 

Last year I believe they played into the second quarter as well. Third game they played the entire first half.

Leave Vick alone, destroy Foles (why there is competiton here, I dunno).

 

Really liked watching Barner last game. Give him the bulk of the carries, and no fumbles.

 

I don't know if Smitty is going to be playing, but I would rather have him coach up the WR's on the sideline. The more time Cam can spend with the other WR's the better.

 

More Josh Norman! I hope he has another great game. I want to believe that he can be a solid corner for this team, and consistency seems to be the thing holding him back.

 

Playcalling, coaching, time management, all that jazz. There can't be anymore little mistakes that occur. That is what preseason is for though, to get all the kinks and small things sorted. Regardless, Rivera and team did well last game, and I want to see a continuation of that.

I want a win. 

 

all our players are fueled by the sense of victory. we need to win all preseason games to build the momentum for season opener.

 

i know cam was rusty for the first game but i want to see him have a better game today. I want AE and gettis to catch more. 

 

i also want josh to int another one.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
