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.

    • Jeremy Fowler draft intel on the Panthers: “Carolina was high on Proctor. If he somehow slipped to 19, he was a viable option.” “Caleb Lomu was on the Panthers short list too.” “Panthers weren’t totally comfortable with Stowers there at 49.”   https://x.com/panthersontap/status/2049827264972353727?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
