Official Panthers - Falcons Gameday Thread

Recommended Posts

Today the Carolina Panthers have the opportunity to win the NFC South and clinch a first round playoff bye. This would leave them only two games from the Superbowl. Pretty amazing!

 

But first, the Falcons will do their best to stop that from happening.

 

Where: Georgia Dome

 

When: 1:00

 

On TV: FOX

 

On Radio: 1110WBT

 

Twitter: Follow @CarolinaHuddle , I will be tweeting from the sidelines and press conferences.

 

Keys to a Panthers Victory

 

- Get started early. A few early scores and the dome will empty of Falcons fans. The fan base is demoralized and need a knockout punch.

- Show killer instinct. Do not let a last second throw from Matt Ryan win this game. Atlanta gave San Fran all they could handle, today is far from a given.

- Showcase Cam. Cam always plays great in Atlanta. Let him be the gun slinger that he is. Slowing the game down too much works against his abilities.

We don't want to go into the playoffs with a loss, need to win this game to keep the winning momentum strong. I think the players will be pumped up knowing what's on the line for them. I haven't been this anxious for a Panther game in many years. Let's spank this team and go into the playoffs with a head of steam big Panthers!!

Really can't wait!!!

 

I think everyone knows they will pass more to Tony G and it will make our plan easier. That said, we can't sleep on these dirty birds as they are hungry about this victory.

 

As I see from interviews of Panthers players, they also know how important it is and we are also eager to win it.

 

And we will.

 

Sorry Tony, we will ruin your farewell game.

I want Williams and Tolbert to rule, over and over.  Will be tough as Falcons will stack the box making Cam throw without Smith.  Olsen should have a big day.

 

I would like a big lead and us taking starters out of the game after the 3rd qtr.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
