Riverboat Ron's Revenge - Panthers Week Thread

The NFL has moved the game to 4:05 per Ian Rappaport.

What a great opportunity for Ron and his team to celebrate after the game. With the Ravens - NYG game at 1pm, if NYG loses, the game will be for the NFC East championship.

Regardless of who is at qb, we ought to have the upper hand to win this game. But can we PLEASE stop spotting teams double digit leads. In our 15 games, only 4 have we not been down by double digits at half. That's the biggest key to the game, and I believe that is on the Offense and Defensive Coordinators. Their opening schemes have not been good at all.

As for Carolina, they won't be an easy win, and I hope our team doesn't take them lightly (they obviously shouldn't). In Carolina's last 4 games, they demolished Detroit, lost by a point to Minnesota after leading into the 4th quarter, lost to Denver (so they aren't consistent), and lost by 8 to GB. They have young talent and can easily upset the WFT's NFC East coronation if the WFT doesn't bring it's best 60 minutes of football.

What are your biggest concerns about the Carolina team? (leave DH's struggles in his thread please)

Re: Riverboat Ron's Revenge - Panthers Week Thread

Teddy Bridgewater has had a huge issue with not being able to finish drives, and funbling in the red zone. Last game he fumbled both on the goal line and the 5 yard-line going in to score.

Our red zone defense is the best in the NFL.

We'll shut them down, even if Christian McCaff comes back. It's on our offense to score enough to win.

Please be ready, Alex.

Re: Riverboat Ron's Revenge - Panthers Week Thread

Our QB situation is obviously a huge concern. What if Alex isn't ready to go? We'll know more this week about DH's status but right now it's hard to imagine he will be able to play.

This was reportedly done to give Haskins ample time to recover from his late Saturday night pre-Panthers game party.

Logan Thomas/Gibson/McKissic/Barber Wildcat attack!

No way the Panthers can prepare for that.

Re: Riverboat Ron's Revenge - Panthers Week Thread

Key is our D and irrespective of whether McCaffrey plays, we have to contain the Panthers O and allow our O to not be chasing TD's. Their D isn't too hot, but likewise not to be taken lightly. We have to establish the running game and not rely on passing. Their OL is a bit banged up so hopefully we can get a lot of pressure on Bridgewater.

I think if we control the clock in this one we can win by at least 7.

Re: Riverboat Ron's Revenge - Panthers Week Thread

I'm starting the Taylor Heinicke bandwagon.

If Alex can't go, we trust in Taylor. Check out the videos in the Haskins thread.

Looks like he's thrown a total of 58 career passes in the NFL, with 1 TD and 3 INTs. I'm not sure I can get on that wagon...

1 career start with Panthers:

36-58, 62%
320 yards
1 TD
3 INT
5 runs for 31 yards



Looks better than Haskins to me.

Ok, if you say so...

I'm not sure that is ascertainable from one start. Looks like he was replaced in that game by Kyle Allen, and hasn't started a game since.

He was injured and went on IR. Both Rivera and Turner should know what he can do so that might be a bonus but remember that Rivera gave up a draft pick for Allen instead of getting Heinicke.
