First Panther Victory of 2011 Doesn't Move the Needle

….hopefully this team will only employ the cardiac cats mentality when necessary, and not embody it every game.

My concern now, is not that he had a bad game. But rather that he had many horrible throws without anyone even pressuring him. I just hope he’s not one of those guys who you never know what extreme to expect week to week.

If we want to call ourselves a good team, then we need to come away with a ‘W’ in these kinds of games. All teams get them. The Steelers didn’t so much beat the Colts last night… they merely survived – and I feel kind of similar about the Panthers yesterday. That being said, I was happy to see how passionate the players looked to be on defense. Some signs of life – even from our rookie DTs.

Every team wants to get better each week. It’s a whole lot easier to do that if you can come away with victories – no matter how you get ’em.

My cautions hope for a nice Clemson season and the absolute choke-job by the Braves in the wild card race have me stressed enough already without a return of the Cardiac Cats…ugh. Win however you can, though.

its hard to see more than 7 wins without being a bit too optimistic. any predictions now of 8 wins or more would involve faith that we are going to beat a few playoff caliber teams the rest of the way

other than the fact that Cam can lead his team back from a slight deficit. It was, no doubt, an encouraging sign, but the weather stole a sizable amount of reality away from the game as a whole. For the most part, you don’t see games under inclement conditions to that degree very often. The point, yard, and stat totals would have been higher(not necessarily better) under normal field conditions and this would have given us a better opportunity to assess the team’s(especially Cam) progress. Let’s hope this week’s game against the Bears is played under more ideal weather conditions so that we can more easily gauge how well this team(Cam) is developing.

Yea i am not worried at all about Cam after yesterday’s performance. Other than Jstew and the one good Olsen TD, the offense as a whole played like dog crap. Cam was inaccurate, the times he was accurate receivers dropped the passes and it was a hot mess on the offensive side. D carried this team yesterday.

Believe it or not Im glad cam played the way he did today. Yes that sounds crazy, but think about it. If Cam passed for 400-500 yds again, that spotlight would have got brighter and brighter and he would have ridicoulos expectations. I think the bubble would have busted and Cam wouod have had crashed and have a meltdown day and who knows what would have happened.

Cam’s vanilla performance yesterday wad just what he needed. He played very boring yet alright football, had no disasters and won the game. Now the media this week can cool off with the Cam love, and give Cam a mental break from the Christ like comparisons he has got the last 2 weeks and he can get his focus back.
