Official Panthers - Saints Gameday Thread


Zod

Recommended Posts

Fellow Huddlers,

 

The day has arrived. Tonight the Panthers have the chance to claim the lead in the race for the NFC South Title.

 

The vibe down here in New Orleans is very energetic. I talked more crap last night with the locals than any time in recent memory. Expect the home crowd to be rowdy and noisy from the first whistle.

 

When: 8:20pm

 

Where: Superdome

 

On TV: NBC

 

I will be on the field and tweeting from the sidelines. Follow @Carolinahuddle

 

Keys to a Panthers Victory:

 

- Score early. While the crowd will be noisy, they are easily deflated with an early lead.

- Hope for a Deangelo repeat performance. Deangelo usually does well in the Superdome.

- Get Physical with Jimmy Graham. His worst performances have been when physically harassed all game long. It is worth a penalty.

It has been a long week waiting for this game. Really, a long two weeks. This is the biggest game we've had in years and with 12.5 hours to go I'm bursting with excitement.

David Carr was the only "expert" to pick the Panthers on Gameday Morning unless you count Sterling Sharpe who picked the Saints as a reverse jinx for the Panthers.

Can't wait for the game cause I think we got this on lockdown.

I've been up since 5:30am and I tossed and turned all night.  Way too pumped up for today.  I've already had an "ice up son" cupcake for breakfast that my Saints fan wife bought yesterday.  Pretty big of her considering I told her I wouldn't share a bed with her this weekend (I'm in the basement).  

 

The Roaring Riot will be 70+ deep at Dilworth Neighborhood Grille tonight if you're looking for some good fans to watch it with.  

 

I'm going to pop four advil, blow the leaves off the yard, and then start drinking. 

 

Go Panthers!  

 

Panthers - 27

Saints - 24

    • It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.   
    • We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.
    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
