1st game of the year so both teams will be trying to find out what works and what doesn't. 1st games are pretty sloppy and a mistake here and there can cost you a game.

Carolina probably wants this game more than we do, or at least we're probably taking it for granted that they're an inferior team. I believe Payton used to comment on these types of games saying "don't eat the cheese".

If Carolina could pick a week to beat us, it would be week 1 of the new season.

I still think we'll probably win, but an upset isn't out of the question.
