I live in the Bay Area. If you said that, you would be what one would call 'the exception to the rule' ;-)

Haha, I live in NC. Panthers are my #2 team so I know what they are about.

I still feel like the 49ers are a better team, but I'm pretty certain ya'll will get the win on Sunday. The 9ers have won 5 in a row, we are due for a loss.

I didn't necessarily mean stack the box when I said "sell out against the run." Thomas Davis is good in coverage, and so is Keek. Blackburn is better tackling. I think our front 4 can handle any team's traditional rushing attack. Selling out against the run to me means a QB spy with the occasional blitz from the safety position or corner back position. If we can't stop the run this way, then I say we stack the box--"show our hand," so to speak.

If Kaep throws for 220+, but the run game doesn't do jack, then I am perfectly OK with that. I don't think throwing for 220+ is enough by itself though to win the game.

As far as Cam's flashes of being raw, he definitely has that reputation. Against Atlanta, he was sailing passes. It should be noted that the two picks he had was partially the receivers' fault: Ginn could have swatted the ball away, and Smith completely quit on the route. If Cam can control his jitters, I don't think he has any turnovers. Even if he does have one, we have proven this year we can still maintain our confidence and pull out the win.

The first int was all on cam, ginn has a step on his man, superior speed and all the are to the right of the hashes to work with. Cam just needed to put it in that area and let ginn run under it. Instead he throw it behind ginn so the db was in perfect position to grab it.

Sure Cam was on the run, but he should make that throw.

So have they. They played two good teams and got beat down..not just lost but beat down.....by BOTH of them

 

Yes 2 playoff contending teams beat us at 60% health. Awesome observation. I'm sure you also noticed that the score of the shehawks game was 7-3 until the 4th quarter...Oh and that the colts had the daunting task of stoping a SF offense that was without Crabtree, Manningham, VERNON DAVIS and Patrick Willis.

 

I don't like to make excuses but when people who didn't even watch the games point out that we got "whooped" by the Colts and shehawks it's hard not to say something.

every team can make the health excuse.  We played a DT at guard last week.   Our stud TE has to wear a boot after every game b/c he plays on a bad wheel.  We already have several starters on IR.  We just got our best RB activated for the first time last week.

 

all that poo, and it has been a good year for us based on how hammered this franchise has been w/ injuries in recent history.....so playing the injury card to this fanbase doesn't work.

We outplayed the Seahawks and they were a lucky fumble away from getting beat. That same Seahawks team whopped your ass like their 6 yo little brother.

Lol, ok. So what will you say after y'all lose sunday? "This can't be right?! we did better vs the seahawks than the Niners...How did they beat us!?!?!"

 

Stop worrying about, and basing everything off Seattle. They have nothing to do with the Panthers @ 49ers Sunday afternoon.

all that matters is how two teams matchup.....

 

our matchup suggests a low scoring game that comes down to which QB makes the most plays IMO.....or avoids the most mistakes.

Hey fellas, 49er fan here, about the board over there, a lot of the posters may be some **** talkers, but I think that a lot of them are just being facetious, can't take it too seriously, some of them, of course, are acting stupidly. (But some Carolina posters are also acting silly...)

 

My honest take on the game is that Carolina is a really strong defensive team, but with your decimated OL and the other "advantages" that a team gets from being at home, bye week, activating talented players, will be too much and we'll get the win.

 

In the last couple of weeks, we are going to have activated: Aldon Smith, Mario Manningham, Tank Carradine, Quinton Dial and Eric Wright to plug in as needed; they are all going to be incredibly fresh.

 

I get what guys are saying about the bye week not being a huge advantage, but what I can tell you right now is that this bye week could NOT have come at a better time for us. Several guys had ticky tack injuries that are going to be able to heal up 100% with that extra time off, and guys that we have recently activated will get 2 full weeks of practice time and conditioning to get up to speed. In our situation, the bye week is a huge advantage. Whether the extra game planning really means anything is a question though.

 

I simply don't see how your O is going to move around on our D, we had 2 bad games very early in the season that are now skewing stats for us, we are among the top Ds in the league again at this point.

 

At the same time, SF's O is going to have a hard time against your front 7, but I believe that with a healthy and talented OL, Kap and Gore will be able to move it modestly enough on the ground to let Vernon, Q and Mario get going.

 

My prediction is 21-13 Niners.

 

 

Interesting.

 

Predictions I do not due in an shape or form.  But from reading and watching games, I would say that neither of theses teams are outstanding on offense. If you stop Kp from running your offense stalls. Its really that simple.  As far as people being"activated, I would not expect Smith to play this weekend. With Felony weapon charges and 2 DUI's I see the NFL stepping in and handing down some suspension soon. 

 

Yes you have a top rated defense, however, they are not the #2 defense in the league.

 

I see this game being a very big defensive battle with whom ever makes the most mistakes loses.

      Panthers coverage efficiency

      By NAS · Posted

      Call me crazy but if you’re in the bottom 7 in efficiency using Zone 84% of the time why not try something else? You paid Jaycee top 5 CB money use him more effectively. Zone is only efficient if you can generate a good pass rush to force a QB into mistakes otherwise you will get picked apart

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.
