No doubt somebody is going to say that the Panthers (2-7) “are only one game out of second place!” and that silly person should be hung under a Banyon tree.

Newsy Notes:

-Oh Glory Be! The Commies are the subject of yet another investigation. Lil Danny Liar Face (I came up with that one all by meself) has now dragged the league and Goodell into the hot miasmatic mess that is this franchise! The sun shines a bit brighter today. (there was no mention of this on NFL.com’s front page. huh)

-It Gets Worse: Rumor has it out Vegas way that both Waller and Renfrow are being thrown on IR. The poor get poorer.

-So Many Buses: Pete Carroll was talking about how Geno and the OC are actually on the same page and that the former ‘doesn’t question everything’. I guess this also involved wearing a wristband of plays. Old Petey giving us a bit of insight on how things were while twisting the knife at the same time. Well done.

To The Game!

Falcons/Panthers:

-Apparently Hurricane Whatever is gonna make the field a slippery track so I’m thinking both squadoos stick the passing game even further down their back pockets.

-Didn’t these teams just play? Why yes, and they racked up 71 points between them so there’s a glimmer of hope.

-P.J. Walker, who threw for 317 yards in that game is the starter again but maybe not in the 2nd half if he struggles?

-Remember all those “Thunder and Lightning” backfields from back in the day? Well, Atlanta (third in rushing) with Patterson, Allgeier and Huntley (the lightest guy weighs 220) feature a “Fuck It, We’re Thunder X3, What Are You Gonna Do About It?” backfield.

-They all might have a day, what with Carolina being on short rest after getting gashed by Mojo Mixon.

Enjoy.
