Carolina -1 vs. Philly

But still the talking heads on ESPN radio are already pretty much calling Philly as a Super Bowl contender...

They are IMO but so are the Panthers. Also, given that our starting lineup had almost no changes, we should be playing at mid-season form sooner than any other team. I really think we'll start off the season very strong.

Plus they may just be getting Westbrook back and he'll probably be rusty for the first few weeks of the season. To me, he's the key to that offense, not McNabb. So that should help us, but overall I still expect a hard fought game and I'm thinking it's about 50/50 we come out with a W.

I agree, that's just what the talking heads are saying. I think we are contenders, but we aren't getting any love from the media in that respect, not an easy one, but obtainable. It's why you play the games out...

I make it a point not to listen to anything those guys say. They make picks every week and they go around .500 or worse, without even picking against the spread. A blind monkey throwing darts at a board will give you about the same results as most of those idiots.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
