Saints move to 4pm

I suppose this was done to have them playing at the same time as Arizona.  The good news is that as long as we win I do not have to lower myself to rooting for Tampa Bay.

 

I also noticed that the Green Bay/Chicago game was moved as well (not sure why), and the Philly/Dallas game is now in prime time.

 

That means the FOX 1pm games are our game along with two worthless games in Det/Min and NYG/Wsh.  In all likelihood our game will be televised everywhere but those four markets so most of the nation will get to see us clinch the division and a week off.  Very happy that I should be able to watch the game from the comfort of my living room!

Yes, the bye scares me as well, but this year we went to Arizona after a bye who has proven to be a worthy opponent with a very stout defense. 

 

All things considered, I would take my chances to get Smitty healthy and play a home game versus going on the road to Philly or Chicago/GB.

Panthers better not fug this up. Ending the season on a sour note could be a big blow to this team's confidence in the playoffs and we need a BYE so everyone can get healthy. I'm still a little troubled on how this team performs after a BYE.

We also played at Arizona after the bye this season. That's a tough test but I am more confident, despite the Titans debacle, for us after a bye in the playoffs at home.

Still gotta beat the Falcons without Steve though. Anyone have news on Stew?

I made a thread about it a few months ago, but according to the stats - the 3 games after BYES under Rivera/Cam have been three of their worst games collectively. The Titans game Cam's rookie year has been one of the few times the Panthers have just flat out got their asses beat since Rivera took over. I think the score was like 40-3.

...  according to the stats, it was not very likely for us to play in the post-season after a 1-3 start.......

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
