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 think the player matters a lot(in regards to price specifically). Parsons will likely end up being worth the price because he is unquestionably elite. Burns obviously hasn't been until this year because he isn't a consistently elite pass rusher. He is too easy to shut down with just a single blocker.  Guys like Parsons and Garrett that you have to plan your entire blocking scheme around make everyone on the defense better. Truth be told, that isn't Burns on his current line, it's Dexter Lawrence. But, as you pointed out, situations still matter. Joe Burrow may be a truly elite QB but that doesn't matter a lot when he can't stay healthy or the overall team isn't good. Ask Matt Stafford about that in Detroit.   The Panthers aren't in a position to be liquidating the extremely valuable draft picks we have. Our roster is still a bottom 5 overall NFL roster.
    • I don't hate KK. The Canes overpaid and he's enjoying the benefits.  Anyone who assumed he was going to turn into an excellent player based on what the Canes paid him weren't paying attention. Sure, I wish he was much more physical, he's a big guy, and that's really all I was hoping for when he came to Carolina. Danault is better in the FO circle, better defensively and better down the middle, but it's a moot point now.
