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.

    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
    • Theilen is about to retire. I dont care about him sticking around. Lets say you did and he retires at the end of the year. Now that connection is gone next year and it's just another excuse for regression that was just held off. 
    • Short term is the key point. Those first two games without him where pretty bad. They still aren't back to where they were offensively but they are getting better. Hopefully Tet continues to improve and Coker eventually returns - and stays healthy.
