Panthers vs Bucs Game Day Open Thread

Carolina Panthers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Oct 18, 2009 1:00 PM EDT


Are you ready for some football!

I know that's the MNF football slogan but I'm feeling stoked like its Monday Night and my team is playing. I admit it could just be left over euphoria from yesterdays GT victory over VT. Woooo Whoooooo! Is there anyone else happy with yesterday's NCAAF results? But I digress.

So I'm obviously bullish on the Panthers today against their division rival. It's time to even the division record and exit the NFC South basement. It's more a Buccaneer kind of place.

If I had to pick one key to the game for the Panthers its obviously turnovers. The Panthers have not played error free ball yet in 2009, with QB Jake Delhomme carrying a five game INT streak. I'm thinking he breaks it today.

Panthers win, Saints and Falcons lose. Its in the script! I'll stop now before I really jinx us.

This is now an Open Thread & Roll Call!

Go Panthers!

Roll Call (def) The act of commenting on a open blog thread simply to indicate you exist, even if you have never done so before (which makes you a lurker) Ex: "Jaxon here, from Charleston, SC; lurker since 2008; the Bucs suck!

Reject your lurker status, answer the roll call today!

I'm in DC this weekend so i have to go to a bar to watch the game....

but ill be back after. Hopefully since the bucs season isn’t going well, we can take any advantage the home field crowd may give out of it quick and see a complete solid performance.

GO PANTHERS!!!!!

Gotta give credit to Tampa, they’re playing hard after an equally tough start to the season.

However I think we’re playing a little harder..

True, burt the QB should provide you with the opportunity to win a game and not be a detriment to the team. 10 INT for the year so far and cannot get the ball to one of our best players in SS consistently.

by Davejinxer on Oct 18, 2009 3:37 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

It’s football.. Interceptions happen to everyone… Just Delhomme more than most recently… Most important thing is to make the rest of this game count.

Smith has been covered all game.

If he forces the ball, we blame him. When he doesn’t force the ball we blame him?

Jake is definately responsible for some of those INTs, but at least 3 of those 10 are dumb luck.

Talib has had Smitty’s number today.

We must be able to do something besides run the ball to be competitve every Sunday. This conversation is naught in your mind, however many others believe this is a problem that needs to be resolved for the good of the team.

Of course we need to address the situation in the offseason, when it's appropriate.

I don’t advocate benching our starting QB for a backup when the game is tied though.

Because Delhomme hit King for a TD, the special teams let a TD return, and Delhomme threw an INT. There’s more than one man on this football team, I’m sorry.

if we tackle on ST or if Delhomme doesn’t throw a pick 6.

Moore could be the answer…we don’t know. But Jake Delhomme is not the answer and is now just more of an enigma. Tampa Bay is horrible and they are keeping it close with a QB with his 3rd start.

Smith was shut down with no other receiving threat.. Moose caught some but he’s hardly considered a passing threat anymore… Great blocking thought… The rest of the receivers rest in obscurity for now.

Fox gives Jake no confidence vote on last drive

Fox’s refusal to let Jake throw on the last drive says volumes. Moore might not set the world on fire. However, I doubt Moore would put our backs against the wall like Jake has done consistently for the past 12 months or so.

Does anyone honestly think Moore will be worse than Jake? I’d hate to think what Jake’s QB rating is after today. If something isn’t working (i.e. Jake), you should try something else.

Gotta say though, the O-line and Double Trouble’s performance on that last drive was inspiring. I guess the Bucs just got more “We were physically dominated.” film room fodder for next year.

WIN!

Two weeks in a row we beat two pitiful teams. This is like winning an ugly woman contest, what have you really achived. The team as a whole is very talented but we are tied to a post called Delhomme and until we get free from that post we are only going to beat losing teams.

That could work...

against the Bucs. A better team, they have to be able to pass the ball.

67 yards for Jake- almost none for smith. 1 td and 2 int’s make it a 42.2 rating game.
Terrible!

The stubborness of Fox and the fact that Jake was paid alot of money to remain the starter after a horrible playoff game is why he is still under center.

Anyone saying that Moore could not do any better, I again say give the man a chance.

Fox will say Jake had a bad day to have a bad day and everyone needs to improve..blah blah blah.

I am pesimistic because I’m staring at the stats and facts and don’t buy into blind loyalty except when it comes to family.

 I want the team to have the best chance to win.
