Panthers will win Sunday

Recommended Posts

Thats right boys and girls, the Panthers are going to win on Sunday.

 

You all know that I have been a Shula critic from day 1, but did you know that Shula from time to time actually does put together a nice game? It is those games that keeps the fans scratching their heads and wondering if there is hope. It is like a CIA torture tactic. Break them down almost completely, but then offer them a candy bar.

 

Flash back to 1998. High hopes are made for the Buccaneers who had a good 1997 season and look to improve on it. However, the Bucs lost the first two games of the season, scoring only an average of 11 points. But then, BAM, they host the Chicago Bears at home and Shula puts up 27 points and a victory.

 

I expect to see a competent offense on Sunday moving the ball. I expect a few long plays for touchdowns that will have the fans thinkging maybe, just maybe, this team finally has it together. Maybe Rivera is a good head coach afterall. Maybe we were all wrong about him.

 

It will be a nice sentiment going into the bye week.

You have been up too late Zod.

 

I will be at the stadium and in my heart, would love for the Panthers to win.

 

Sadly, I see Giants  38, Panthers 20.

 

...particularly sad as I'm staying over in Charlotte Sunday, which means, all I'll hear are Giants fans.

 

The only hope is the Manning is not a mobile QB; but, the receivers for the Giants will tear up that secondary.

Do we get to use the 98 Bucs defense?

it would be nice, but i just don't see it happening. they score too much and we're allergic to it this year.

 

i fully expect rivera to say in his pressure today that he doesn't see the sense in having a high scoring offense because the other team is just going to score as well and then everyone just gets tired. 

 

and then sunday the game plan will be to philosophically prove that you can win a game by keeping your score low....meanwhile the giants drop 50 on us.

    • I am high, but that’s besides the point! The blue line is not good right now. I’ve said it all year. I don’t think this group meshes well. Slaven has been just OK Niki up and down Miller up and down ghost and Walker have been your most consistent guys. Maybe it comes together more towards the playoffs
    • I was expecting to see more cap room moves by now, which may be to suggest that we are not going to be that aggressive.  I have mixed emotions about that (because I think we have 3 needs on D and 3 needs on O--starters).  If you look to the draft for 3 starters, that is ambitious.  We need 6
    • Yeah we shouldn’t be competing with teams, bidding wise, to sign a WR. There will be one for us and our budget.  I keep saying, how many balls will there be to go around anyway? One thing good I will say for this offense is the ball has been spread around at times. Seems like I remember seeing a large number of guys have caught passes in a game. Or been targeted at least. 3 RBs 4 or 5 WRs 2-3 TEs type of stat lines. 10-11 guys.  Not every week but that happens.    As far as WR in general, we need the smaller agile and quicker component to compliment what is there. After that it should be about depth, having good backups for the starters so we can run things consistently still, if a guy is out for a week or two. That is especially important in game where you have to finish the game with who you made active.
