Yea but Cam Newton has a passer rating of 88.1, and has thrown the same number of TDs as INTs in his last two games !

That is so awesome I don't need to mention his 61.7 % completion rate.

2 games left at home = at least 2 more wins

I didn't mean Carolina although I see how that could come across that way. Seattle beat up on us about the same time in the season that Dallas did and the sky did not fall. If memeory serves me, we did not clinch HFA that game and it was a huge loss. We will come out strong vs Carolina, I have no doubt. I think we'll split with them and get the 2 seed. STL and TB don't have a whole lot to play for at this point.

A night time game in the dome against a division foe that's running it's mouth, Drew quiets his doubters Saints win 38-14

Since drafting Cam Newton the Panthers have always been hot and cold, remember when they won 5 of their last 6 last season. Now they've won their last 8. A blowout in the Dome is exactly what they need to cool down the pot.

And don't forget about the heavy dose of pouting we will see from Cam on Sunday night.

That's always a possibility with Cam. He seems to have his emotions under check for the time being, but he hasn't experienced any real adversity as of late.

Heard an interesting perspective on Saints/Panthers by a local sportstalk yesterday ... they were talking about how the Saints were more a finesse team, how the Panthers were basically a smash mouth team designed for a certain amount of success that typically crashes hard ... they're 'hard crash' being this weekend in the Mercedes Benz Dome,

sure i think the saints have the hardest road to the playoff of any team. not one push over since the bye week really.

I get it.

The Panthers are having an "our turn" moment. It's a strong feeling.

If we can tuck a pass or interception this week… well… it will have been better than last week.

Its ok for Panthers fans to get the "our turn" feeling...
My brow goes up when our fans have an "its their turn feeling".
