I got a taste for blown saves
Tom had a double digit yard run against that Broncos D, imagine what Cam will do

The Broncos could shut down the entire Panthers offense and would still lose because Cam would have 100 yards and 2 TDs.

e: I'm not optimstic but I also don't think it'll be the blow out everyone is so eager to see

The Carolina Panthers dominated the Cardinals for all four quarters, winning 49 to 15 and advancing to Super Bowl 50.

However, that didn't stop a couple of loyal fans from coming to the airport to show their support. Die-hard fans DJ Michael Gonzales and Ana Rojas were the only supporters to show up, but you can tell the players appreciated it.

Phoenix sports haven't seen a championship since 2001 so fans don't realize they're supposed to welcome teams back.

One of the funniest posters in GIP.

Just not intentionally.

That seemed sketchy to me, so I went back and read the article again. Apparently the airport they landed at is deep in the heart of Cowboys country. It really isn't that surprising that only both Cardinals fans were present there for what is basically a visiting team.

Of course.

Is there a prop bet for most yardage lost in a sack? Because I can totally see Cam taking one of his 3 spin moves going backwards 15 yard loss sacks in this game. It might be lock of the night.

concussed in the first game, hated by Fox.

injury led to a QB parade involving Jimmy Clausen, Tony Pike, Brian St Pierre, and Armanti Edwards.

Led to the number 1 overall pick that Marty Hurney had tried to trade for Jimmy Clausen to Arizona, but had been denied.

Denver defense is still scary as hell, probably on par with some really loving great ones from history. Its loaded top to bottom.

I hate hearing people write this game off already because I could see it being tighter than a fishes rear end in a top hat.

I guess it all depends on how well philips can adjust to Shulas weird running schemes and utilisation of max protect in certain situations.

I just hope kurt coleman shows up in the good way where his free wheeling wild man act ends in interceptions and not touchdowns.

I think worst case scenario the Panthers offense will gently caress up less than the Broncos will.

Kurt Coleman has had a very good year and fits in very well with what the Panthers want to do and this Panthers fan is very happy he's under team control for loving peanuts in 2016.

Panthers secondary coaches and schemes have to be the best in the NFL. Kurt Coleman might have been the biggest pro bowl snub this year (seriously), they got Mike loving Mitchell 25 million after a year, Captain Munnerlyn 5 million a year, Josh Norman is an all pro, and Cortland Finnegan came off his couch 7 weeks ago and isn't even a liability.

They are incredible.

Yeah, it kind of feels like people are overreacting to Carolina destroying Arizona and just assuming Denver can't hang. I like the Panthers' chances, don't get me wrong, but I don't see it being a repeat of 2013.

Don't forget Robert McClain, another off-the-couch guy who has been getting picked on by opposing QBs but somehow hasn't been a total disaster.

I mean it's because they basically have two three safeties playing linebacker who are also incredible against the run

I kinda feel that their offense is too mediocre to have much chance against our defense, but I also feel there defense is good enough to keep it close enough that they could bullshit a win in. I figure the Panthers are way more complete though and should win outside of that.
