Carolina = Smoke and Mirrors

Cam has never been in this environment before. I predict a deer in the headlights performance much like Kaeps first time.

i agree.

Carolina is rooting for Detroit on Sunday, no doubt.

No idea why.. they were down 38-3 at Lambeau before McCarthy pulled all the starters.

The Panthers are pretty much screwed no matter what.

Every game from here on out is prime time. We know how the hawks play in prime time.

Technically no.. as the NFC CG is at Noon PT

But if you mean "game everyone will be watching" .. then yes.

Why is there such a need to shit all over the Panthers or any other team?

I just see it as the cost of living the good life.

Reminds me of some of our fans around the time of the Holmgren Superbowl run in the mid-2000's. They tended to quiet down around the Mora era, now the good times are flowing again.

Everyone pissed and moaned "no one wants the south", but that's not true. Carolina wanted it and went and took it, on the road, playing good defense and running the ball. As a football fan, I loved it.

I definitely think there's overconfidence from some in here. Wouldn't be surprised if the Panthers gave us a game. St. Louis did for a while, as did the Cardinals until we pulled clear. I mean, who have we beaten really impressively over our six win streak? Kap and a reeling 49ers? Stanton? Lindley? Sanchez? Hill?

I'm not trying to say we're not a good team, I think we are, and on our day we're the best. But I can get why the Packers/Cowboys/Lions and even Panthers think they can beat us. Because they should be the toughest opponents we've faced in a while.
