Arizona Cardinals @ Carolina Panthers Pre Game Thread. 12/15/24-12/21/24

Couldn’t tell who was worse yesterday? Rush or Young? Young takes way too many sacks and his numbers look decent but most of the damage was during garbage time. Empty Calories.

But he will look like a world beater against us. The Cardinal way.

All the screen passes yesterday gave me flashbacks to the Kingsbury era

Me too! Just when the nightmares were fading….

Sad, but all too true.

I only saw the highlights but one thing again is it shows the value of having a good team, especially defense, around you.

Bo Nix was for much of the game yesterday plain awful, 3 picks 2 more dropped, I think he fumbled too. The Colts lost a TD because Taylor dropped the ball before he crossed the goalline. But when the game was on the line and the Colts needed a score they drew up a trick play, backwards pass to the WR who threw it back to Richardson, the LB for the Broncos read the play picked it off(recorded as a fumble) and ran it back for a game sealing TD.

Young just never gets that chance if he plays as poorly as Nix did, they get blown out. That's the curse of being drafted by a really bad team, you don't get to be a game manager early in your career.

What I saw of Young he's improved but he still has issues throws into coverage too much and is loose with the ball in the pocket. the key is going to be stopping their run game and make Bryce beat us.

They had one busted play TD where the defense thought Young was going to get sacked, he got away and completed an 83 yard TD otherwise they really struggled

Some injury updates from Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon (both to us reporters and
@BurnsAndGambo):- Max Melton "is going to end up OK."- Trey Benson is still being evaluated- Mack Wilson Sr. is doing OK and is in good spirits

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I don’t buy this. Players have pride. They don’t want to be embarrassed in front of millions of fans and media.

Right. They won’t tank. I think you only see tanking in the nfl for QBs.

NFL Playoff Picture 2024: Updated AFC and NFC Standings, bracket, tiebreakers for Week 15

The Bills, Texans and Chiefs have clinched their divisions, the Lions, Steelers, Vikings and Eagles have clinched playoff berths, and eight more playoff spots are up for grabs.

www.nbcsports.com

OUTSIDE LOOKING IN

8. Seattle Seahawks (8-6): Didn’t look like a playoff team in Sunday night’s loss to the Packers.

9. Arizona Cardinals (7-7): Staying alive in the NFC West.

Cards pushed down another rung on the ladder with Atlanta victory over Las Vegas on MNF.

the only thing we have going for us is carolina playing for the #1 draft pick - same thing we had going for us against new england - these teams don't want to win anything but the golden ticket - im just sayin

we would literally have to beat ourselves and turn it into some type of undeniable emotional victory for the panthers - which isn't beneath us - especially on the road - especially with an early start time

don't "take the spread" is my advice - i don't see this being a cake walk because we're the arizona freakin cardinals and we need something to bitch about on sundays - we need the unnecessary climactic drama that gets the cardio going whle merely sitting on our couch

After a 4-turnover performance yesterday against the Cowboys, there is rumor the Panthers will consider benching QB Bryce Young, again, in favor of Andy Dalton.Prior to joining Carolina, Dalton spent time with the Bengals, Cowboys, Bears, and Saints. And, in each of those stints, he's lost to the Cardinals at least once. He has a career record of 1-5 against the redbirds.Dalton has thrown more INT's (9) than TD's (7) over their last 3 meetings.

If we get beat by a 37 year old Dalton throwing to a 35 year old Adam Thielen, this site might quite literally blow up!

Dalton is totally a capable QB and his history proves that. I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. However the Panthers are a bad team as a whole their record is what it is for a reason.

That's my point, they are bad and if those two single handedly beat us with that bad team around them, it'll be 100% Darkside in here.

I don't see it happening though.

Chuck Harris is a supreme jackass.

Where did he get this from?

It would not surprise me at all. It would indicate they have given up on Bryce and are eyeing a QB in next year’s draft pool.

In regards to the site blowing up if we lose I think it doesn't matter who plays QB for Carolina. It will all be about hating our players either way.

And who in this upcoming draft class is a better QB prospect coming out of college than Young was two years ago?

This 2025 QB class sucks, IMHO.
