Today the Panthers try to clinch their first winning season in five years. With another win against the Bucs they are assured at least a 9 win season. The Bucs have won three straight and could upset the Panthers. Overall it should be another hard fought football game at The Bank.

 

Where: Bank of America Stadium

 

When: 1:00

 

On TV: FOX

 

On Radio: 1110 WBT

 

On Twitter: Follow @CarolinaHuddle for observations from the sidelines.

 

 

Keys to a Panthers Victory:

 

- Find their run game. The Panthers rushing attack has all but vanished as of late. They will need a solid ground game if they have aspirations to last into January. Kenjon Barner may get extra carries due to injuries.

 

- Prevent the long ball. The Bucs surely say how the Panthers were gashed on long passes last week. Look for them to try to take advantage early and often.

 

- Stay Focused. The Panthers are surely looking ahead to a huge matchup next week against New Orleans. It will be a challenge for them to focus on this week's less than stellar opponent. Trap Game? Yep.

It's the next game, so it's the biggest game of the year. If the team remembers that they should win this. Still think it will be close.

I really wish we could put 35+ on the Bucs to build confidence going into the Taints game.

I wish Big Money was playing.     I really do.     I also hope Shula is prepared to utilize the dinks and dunks to help Cam out with the intense pressure he is sure to be under from the Bucs pass rush. 

 

 

9-3 sounds pretty dang good though.     Would love it if Cam and our rag tag Panthers have the longest win streak in franchise history today.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
