Official Panthers - Saints Gameday Thread


Zod

Recommended Posts

Today the Panthers have a chance to take control of the NFC South and clinch their first playoff birth since 2008.

 

After their shellacking 2 weeks ago in New Orleans, the Panthers are primed for revenge. The Saints are 3-4 on the road this season and very beatable.

 

When: 1:00

 

Where: Bank of America Stadium

 

TV: FOX

 

Radio: 1110 WBT

 

Twitter: Follow @CarolinaHuddle for tweets from the sidelines.

 

 

Keys to a Panthers victory:

 

- Long sustained rushing drives featuring Mike Tolbert.

- Win the turnover battle. The field and ball will be wet, a good opportunity for a hungry defense.

- Get physical. The Saints lose their luster in matches that take a more physical tone. Speed is their game, not toughness.

 

Prediction:

 

Panthers 24

Saints 13

    • I don't believe it's as easy as saying that anyone believes that Rico had the 10th best day on offense. Grades are done in a vacuum inasmuch as they can be. By their very nature, skill positions are always going to account for more "production" in reference to stats, and RBs perhaps even more than WRs because they touch the ball more. You can't look at PFF's grading system, or any football grading/grading system (like perhaps Football Outsiders or Next Gen Stats), so simplistically. If a player has an excellent day, relative to his position, relative to his assignments, and relative to his number of snaps, then he should be graded highly. It's up to the reader (or the analyst, if you will) to put what you're seeing into context, and that's not only in relation to the grades, but the general situation (like whether a player is playing injured, who they're playing with or against---the general situation). Even the fact that (presumably) PFF or news outlets put out a list of the highest and lowest grades, that doesn't mean that said players were the most impactful of the day, it just means that they did or didn't do their job the best, based upon a certain set of parameters. PFF is a part of life for football analysts, talking heads, execs, coaches, players, and even fans (even if indirectly), all to varying degrees. It is a tool that is used by all 32 teams. Obviously it's not viewed so dismissively by franchises as a whole. Execs obviously don't look at it as a bunch of bozos making sh¡t up on the fly. Fans can berate it or swear by it, but it isn't going anywhere.  The only thing that I can tell you is that perspective and context matters.
    • Im not big in to PFF but their guys were raving about his blocking along with our other skill players in the run game. https://youtu.be/D4kL_N97cFQ?si=sJWSZCUA1bj5otyx
