Carolina Panthers at San Francisco 49ers

 

The Panthers have won nine of their last 12 games, but the knock on Carolina? They haven't beaten anyone of note. We don't buy it. The Panthers have scored 30-plus points per game during a four-tilt win streak, and Cam Newton is playing the best football of his career. His 120.4 passer rating on third downs points to Newton making critical throws from the pocket, and he's one reason we're all aflutter for Sunday:

Saying this could be 2013 game of the year.

A part of me is scared due to years of being a Panther fan and withstanding the most emotional abuse I've ever encountered in sports. I just want to go toe to toe with the defending NFC champs. The other part though... WANTS TO fuging GOML THEM! Let's get this W!

    • no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.
    • Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
