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

    • I love this draft because they picked the right OL.  It is possible that we have 2 rookies starting on the OL.  I would take Utah's Lomu as well, but for those who think you find the OL in free agency and not the draft, here is all I have to say:  We cannot give $110m to the 5 starting OL.  We need an infusion of youth on the OL as well.  If Ickey returns and can play, I imagine that he takes over for Hunt at RG--in 2027 or so.  Currently, our 2 guards and right tackle make up over 20% of the total cap.  We have to add 2 starters, but if Cade Mays was too pricey at around (anticipated) $8m, then we plan to draft a C, it seems. I think we draft an OT and C now because we will need a G or 2 and a RT soon.  While they were good in 2026, they were not elite.  For that kind of $$, we need elite.  Is starting a rookie LT and C ideal?  Nope.  But if we can get better than Nijman and Mays, we should be OK. I think we will pick up an ILB in free agency and add an ILB.  Who we draft (Mike or Will) will depend on who we sign.  Rodriguez is a favorite of mine, but if Golday is there, Morgan is going to take him.  Morgan will love him. I do not think we need to overpopulate the edge position right now because we have 1 edge returning from injury (Jones II), one rookie from last year ready to step up and could be really good (Scourton), and another who could be ready to step into the situational pass rusher role (Princely).  2 hold the edge very well and if we had a situational pass rusher to join Princely, we could be much better. I think rookies at Edge tend to jump considerably from their rookie seasons to years 2 and 3.  (Charles Johnson, Mike Rucker, and Greg Hardy were that way-and all became very good in time. Safety seems omitted, but we shall see.  That could be another free agent acquisition.
    • Id like Evans from Duke in the draft as a shooter for the second unit. And probably a more athletic big to replace all, he's good but doesn't really fit the style. White, Evans, green, Williams and center tbd is a pretty good second unit
