PantherDave Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Who knows, but it's the re-match I wanted, because the reg season game at Chi-Town was by far the flattest the Cat's have been in years much less a single game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menudo Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Personally, I simply don't see the Panthers losing to the Bears. 17-3 Panthers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursa Majoris Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Bears will edge this one 20 - 13. Carolina just put 23 points past the worst Giants performance I can recall seeing. They ain't Indy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Gonna be a rough-n-tumble game. 17-10 Bears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goopster24 Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 I don't get why people are so high on the Panthers against the Bears. The Bears destroyed them; the Panthers couldn't block our front four at all. They got Foster now which sorta worries me now but it isn't anything we haven't faced before. I think the Panthers are a solid team but the Bears have a better defense and a decent offense now with Grossman at the helm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Swerski Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Given that Carolina's defense just comletely shut down the Giants, I don't like the Bears' chances. I hate to say it, but all of Chicago will realize that Rex Grossman isn't the answer next weekend: CAR 16, CHI 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooGie Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 (edited) I'm happy about this win, but it's bitter sweet. I'm not happy about CAR only getting 23 points against this NYG DEF. Foster will not be able to run against this CHI D. Smith will be the key. He had 169 yrds last time these teams met up, but no TD's. If he scores once, they coulda won that game. Smith has to score in this game, and i think he will. Also, Foster needs to have a big time role in the passing game. Quick dump offs need to make up for the lack of a running game, that I'm sure CHI will shut down. On the other side, I'll put this D against any QB, especially Grossman. CAR will have to stop Jones/Peterson/Benson, and i think they will, based on their performance today against Tiki. It'll either be a close game, or CHI will route CAR. CAR will not win handily, but I think they will win. If Foster can run, and CHI can run: CAR 17 CHI 14 If Foster cannot run and CHI cannot run: CAR 13 CHI 10 in OT If CHI can run, and Foster cannot: CAR 10 CHI 21 there you have it. edit: and by foster running, i mean also help in the quick dump passing game. i think Running is the key in this game, and if Grossman has to pass, CAR will cause those turnovers that will allow the win.

They are a more experienced team and I usually favor the experienced team. That said though, the Bears defense was the reason why the Panthers were so flat. It'll be hard to match that performance no doubt, but Panthers couldn't do too much against a depleted Giants defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooGie Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Bears 20 Panthers 6 1254591[/snapback] that's funny. Tiki and Eli couldn't score a thing against them, and Grossman will do better? heh...funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantherDave Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Let's see #1 DT vs #3 DT Panther's best road team in NFC @ 7-2(but one one of the 2 was to Chi) Panthers #2 in NFL in Take-aways (Chi is good as well maybe #1?) Panthers have PO experince and are battle tested-Bears had a Bye to prepare. There are some more we could dredge up, but I have utmost respect for the Bears, and this is going to be a awesome game-period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantherRage Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 The Panthers showed today that they are able to step it up in the playoffs and completely dominated the Giants. They made Eli look silly today and they will continue to play well next week. The guys want redemption against the Bears and they will have it next week. We will defeat the Bears. You can count on it. 20 - 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What game did you watch? 1254647[/snapback] well, i think he was stating how 5 turnovers and still only 23 points. a 23 point victory is huge though, but shoulda been bigger.
