Official Panthers - Falcons Gameday Thread

Today the Panthers have a chance to solidify their post season hunt status when facing the Atlanta Falcons. We all know that division games are the most important on the schedule, and today is no different.

 

Expect a tough physical game with a result within a single score.

 

 

On TV: FOX

 

Radio: 1110 WBT

 

I will be tweeting pics and observations from the sidelines starting at 11:30. Follow @CarolinaHuddle

 

 

Keys to Panthers Victory:

 

- Take Tony Gonzalez out of the game, force other players to make plays.

- Rattle Matt Ryan early. His confidence is at an all time low.

- Continue targeting Tedd Ginn deep. Just by trying the deep ball the short pass to Jonathan Stewart out of the backfield is more likely to succeed

 

Prediction: Panthers 20 - Falcons 13.

    • Its possible. Given the higher value and longer expected career length of WR vs. RB I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't pushing to play WR himself, but honestly Samuel would've probably been best used as a Deebo type of player - essentially a RB/WR hybrid. And yeah, drafting him right after CMC was head scratching and I said so at the time. Like, why did we just draft a poor man's version of CMC right after drafting CMC. I said the same when we drafted Funchess. Why did we just draft a poor man's version of KB when we just spent a 1st rounder on KB last year?
    • Samuel was definitely a 'tweener.   I would argue he would have had a better career as a RB in the NFL, especially as the 3rd down back.  He was projected to be a better RB than WR at the next level by many draft gurus.  Your right though, he was a poor man's CMC and the reason we opted to make him a WR because CMC was eating up the RB reps.
    • You're arguing against posts that haven't even been made. Roughly half the thread is people arguing it's a good move and the other half is people saying he's a mid-level starter who isn't worth carrying this type of cap impact. I don't think I've seen a single person saying he's a below average QB at best and that's why you're backpedaling. First it was "terrible", now it's "below average at best". Mischaracterizing others' arguments doesn't make yours stronger.
