Panthers future Thanksgiving/Christmas Games


Recommended Posts

What do you guys think happens first? We play on Thanksgiving either against Dallas or Detroit (or get the late game in the future) or we play one of the "Christmas Games" like in the past the NFL would have a Saturday day or night game in the week leading up to christmas with no NCAA games on (I see that isn't the case this year but hoping they bring it back in the future) or do we sometime play on Christmas day.

 

With the team getting better and being a national spectacle I'm hoping we land one of these games in the future.

I believe we have played the Sat night Christmas game before. A loss to Dallas in 07. A T day game would be fun.

we will never play in the late game ... if you notice Dallas and Detroit always play against 1 AFC team and 1 NFC team ... so the late game will always be AFC vs AFC ... that makes it 3 NFC and 3 AFC teams to play on Thanksgiving

There have been plenty of AFC vs NFC latr games recently. 49ers vs Ravens in 2011. In 2008 it was 2 NFC teams.

    • And that makes you right. 
    • Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious. 
    • We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
