Ok..On to The Panthers

I saw in the Patriots game Rankins holding his wrist late in the game...I'm guess it's not serious?

I'll wager anything you want.

They're already talking an extension with Drew... 4 years - 100 Million; if I remember correctly...

Just making sure. You are willing to bet that Drew Brees will be on an NFL roster next season other than the Saints, right?

That was a year old tweet by the idiot LaCanfora that was absolutely wrong even back then.

3rd and 9 from the 18 with 20 seconds left in the 2nd quarter. No timeouts. Brady dropped back, scrambled and rushed for 8 yards coming up short of the first down with about 15 seconds left and the clock ticking. Brady immediately got up and started signaling for the field goal team who was ready. The field goal unit quickly but smoothly lined up, the center snapped the ball with a couple of seconds on the clock and Gostkowski made a 28-yard field goal as time expired. Business as usual.

If you're like me, you watched this happen and thought two things as Brady ran off the field and the clock ticked down:

#1. They are absolutely going to get this off in time and make this.

#2. Most teams would not.

Not because their kicker isn't good or their quarterback can't scramble. Becuase they're not prepared.

This isn't an issue of talent. This is an issue of desire. The desire to be ready for what can happen. To have thought about it. To acknowledge the situation. And to execute when you know it's time. It's the edge that wins. Granted, when both sides are equally prepared, the more talented side wins. But in a great many cases, I've found the other side doesn't prepare. They don't put the work in to win.

The great news is anyone can prepare. I don't have to be able to throw a football like Tom Brady to prepare. And neither do you.

It's Cam's legs I'm worried about. If you are struggling to play zone defense correctly, the last thing you want to see is a dual-threat QB. Cam could see the broken zone and run for an easy 15 yards and not even need to risk a throw.

Didn't he tweak his ankle last week? In theory, he should be just a little bit slower...
