'twas just nights before football

It's almost football season.....

Twas just nights before football, and all through the city

Every fan was dreaming of Kuechly and Smitty.

Their glass mugs were chilled in the freezer with care

Knowing that beer would soon be poured there.

The players were waiting anxiously for the start of game day

They'd been improving all summer, it was nearly time to play.

The mistakes of years past, had served as motivation,

And now they were ready to release devastation.

Ron was sitting in his office, making his final tweaks,

To get the perfect defense he so desperately seeks.

And Shula was thinking of all the weapons defenses would have to fear,

Knowing this would be far better than his time a Buccaneer.

Cam Newton was loading his mental chamber, staring in the mirror,

Looking at the face that all defenses would soon fear.

With Tedd Ginn and Smitty, Olsen and Dwill,

Cam knew that under his leadership, they could score at will.

When suddenly from a nearby hotel, a loud sound did blare,

It was little Russell Wilson awaking a nightmare.

He had dreamed of the Kraken, Star and CJ

It scared him to his very core, he did not want to stay.

While he was looking for flight back to Seattle, Coach Carol ran to his side

But instead of words of wisdom, he asked the diminutive man to hide.

For while he was resting, Petey had the same dream,

And was sobbing to himself when he heard little Russell's scream.

Pete know that last year was lucky, merely a fluke,

There was no way Marshawn was running against TD, Beason and Luke.

And while all the pundits on the TV were expecting Seattle to cruise,

Pete knew in his heart, that his Seahawks would surely lose.

Carol hugged his quarterback before he left, and kissed his cheek goodbye,

To leave back to his bedroom suite, and have a final cry.

The score was no longer his focus, he wanted merely to survive,

To keep the score close, and leave Carolina alive.

For years the Panthers have been down,heartbreak and postgame cries,

But soon all football fans will witness Carolina rise.

Betting against our Panthers, would be nothing short of treason....

Happy football to all, and to all a good season.

    • Seems to me that the Bucs have less fight in them now than they had in week 16. The real test is going to be if the Panthers can sustain focus and discipline throughout. With the Bucs being at home, maybe that gives them a little boost of confidence and energy.  Wouldn’t it be something if for ONCE the Panthers came out and dominated from the opening snap and just took this shook Bucs team to task?  If the Panthers see-saw form follows, we are in line for the W. Hard to say we have momentum but we do have a pretty clear pattern of following a loss with a win.  I’m going to say 24-16 Panthers!!
    • When Parcell’s said Bryce better “walk on water”…..the implied concern wasn’t that the tiny QB could survive being hit.  It was acknowledging he would have to be extremely special to overcome the handicaps he would face at this level.  Which he isn’t and can’t.  which isn’t just being hit.  It’s being able to play in an NFL pocket and make NFL throws from it….and that ultimately is Bryce’s problem.  He doesn’t play well from a NFL pocket and can’t make all the throws as needed.  He can’t see as others can.  Which impacts the throws he does and doesn’t take.  It also impacts him bailing and killing plays and turning them into scrambles/dead plays 
    • 9:30 kick off here in Scotland, which is better than the 01:20 early hours of Monday that I feared. Will definitely be watching, but probably wouldn't if it had been 0120 as I need to be up for work at 05:45. Falcons Saints is 6pm on the Sunday so will watch that too if it becomes relevant
