Official Panthers - Falcons Gameday Thread


Zod

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.

    • Me and you clearly have different definitions of production. If you remove the 2023 season where Thielen had just over 1k yards he is 43rd on our all time receivers list just ahead of Jonathan Mingo. And before you ask why would we remove that season? Well a couple reasons. For one thing we won a whopping 2 games. And for the biggest. Thielen was 14th in targets in 2023. We absolutely force fed him the ball all season and finished with the 32nd passing offense. For comparison sake 33 year old Jerricho Cotchery eclipsed over 1k total yards in just 2 more games and with 67 less targets than Thielen did in that 2023 season. He has above average hands. That's it. We overpaid him because we were desperate and overvalued him. That's the reality no matter how many times you or anyone else wants to quote me and get defensive about it.
    • He's played great and it was a win-win (rare free agent) for both parties.  One of the points is he hasn't made enough difference to "waste" 35 million on. Another point is by the time Panthers are hitting their prime, he would have taken snaps away from young WRs/TEs/RBs. "Thus" in the long term, hurting the teams new future "window."  But I dare think of the monkey poo of a offense the Panthers had without him the past 2 years. Lack of talent leads to many problems, including paying a 35 year old to be somewhat respectable. Hes one of few that cared enough and made a effort. Plus you know he's done great stuff in many other ways for the team, community juggernaut, leadership, etc.  Judgement is for AT and his 3 year panther career!!
    • But it has gotten a little wacky. RBs-https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/contracts/_/position/rb     A couple months ago iggles made Bark the highest guaranteed RB, jeanty was until then. That's what matters the guarantee. A rookie never played a down was the leader, until iggles howie made things right.  If a safety gets drafted in the top 8 or so, he would have the highest money too or very close to it.    Add in TEs and C too.    Even with the fixed %, the numbers are getting too much for a player that's not proven themselves.     Plus anytime a QB is drafted it screws up the contracts for players around and if next year a punter gets drafted at the same 90th spot, they want the same contract with the 5.7% increase. Teams would be laughing.    Its just reached this point. Another 10 years and I bet the vets will be crying.
