Official Panthers - Buccaneers Gameday Thread


Zod

Recommended Posts

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.

    • He’s kind of overrated to be honest. Never really felt like a true #1 or elevated his play to become a guy the defense really has to worry about. 
    • I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
