Official Panthers - 49ers Playoff Gameday Thread


Zod

Recommended Posts

The day has arrived!

 

Today the Carolina Panthers host the San Francisco 49ers in their first playoff game since the 2008 season. They face a tough San Francisco team, the winner moves on to Seattle.

 

When: 1:00

 

TV: FOX

 

Radio: 1110WBT

 

Twitter: Follow @CarolinaHuddle for tweets from the sidelines starting at noon.

 

Keys to a Panthers Victory:

 

- Brandon Lafell must show up. We will need a tall possession receiver today against the physical San Fran defense.

- Contain Kaepernick in the pocket. His legs are more dangerous in keeping plays alive than his mediocre passing ability.

- Defensive points. If the defense can score or at least give the Panthers the ball inside the ten, we win.

 

 

Prediction

 

Niners - 13

Panthers - 24

    • I love college football and generally enjoy it even more than the NFL but it is undeniably a mess right now with this NIL and transfer portal stuff and the whole ND thing is just beyond absurd. I know NFL fans bitched about the Pats for years and then the Chiefs for years about how they got special treatment but honestly most of that was just about the media and announcers dick riding them and a perceived friendly call here and there. They didn't get to not have to play in a conference, have their own special individual rep to lobby in their behalf when no other team does, nor literally get special clauses just for them to create a different standard for qualifying for the playoffs. And ND fans really have the nerve to take about a bias against ND? Well, no poo. If you don't hate ND you're not paying any attention.
    • This 100 percent. Really, it comes down to defense more than anything else. We have a bit of tape on NO's rookie QB now and that gives us something to work with. He was an unknown quotient the first time around and our defense still had not gelled the way it has now. And our offensive line has to be in push mode for most of this game. Road graders over turnstiles. The Saints know their season is over, if their defense is hit with body blows early and often in the game, then at halftime, many of their starters will be thinking of winter vacation plans and checking with their agents to see about free agent possibilities. 
    • Renfrow is only getting targeted with catches he is just simply unable to make. He is getting the AT balls. He is not a contested catch WR. Horn is more valuable in our offense because he adds an element that doesn't really exist with our other WR's. He is a speedy, agile guy that we can use to get a lot of YAC on these screens and glorified running plays. So he has tremendous value in that role. As a pure WR he is clearly not as refined as Renfrow.  Renfrow also isn't nearly as good as Coker at most aspects of his role.  He is on the bench because he is a redundant, less useful player in some regards. Especially when we don't have a "point guard" at QB like we were supposed to. Bryce doesn't exactly spread the ball around and definitely not efficiently.
