Speaker 1: Hey, guys. This week on the group chat, we are
Speaker 1: crowning a homecoming King. Ross Cockell's guy they really trust
Speaker 1: and are counting on. So he stepped in there and
Speaker 1: I thought played extremely well against that Houston offense and
Speaker 1: obviously had the big play right. And then we are
Speaker 1: previewing the game against the Jacksonville Jaguars right here at
Speaker 1: Bank of America Stadiums. And even when you're playing Jacksonville,
Speaker 1: there's something that's kind of There's been a lot of
Speaker 1: cool games against Jacksonville over the years. We have that
Speaker 1: and so much more, including a special guest you do
Speaker 1: not want to miss. You've been added to the group
Speaker 1: chat with your friends. Caroline can, Max Sensen, and Will
Speaker 1: Brian guys were here. We didn't forget about the group chat.
Speaker 1: We just wanted you to wait. You know, great things
Speaker 1: are worth waiting for. And we're one day late with
Speaker 1: a group chat. And one person noticed, I didn't think
Speaker 1: you're going to reveal that it was just one. It
Speaker 1: was just one. But we all start somewhere and we're
Speaker 1: going to celebrate that one person that was asking, yeah,
Speaker 1: shout out to you, so thank you. You're actually the
Speaker 1: president of the group he's now. Congratulations for recognizing that
Speaker 1: we are a day late on this. But sometimes life
Speaker 1: just gets a little headtick around here, and we've been
Speaker 1: running around. So it's like my dad when I'm late
Speaker 1: on the snap counts. He calls and leaves the messages
Speaker 1: when the snap counts art up because he wants to
Speaker 1: know what the snap counts are. My dad wanted to
Speaker 1: know where the vlog had been. This was weeks ago.
Speaker 1: He called. My dad's a big Texter and he always
Speaker 1: sends emojis with those text messages. But he called and said,
Speaker 1: you know, I've I've missed your videos. Where's the vlog? Said?
Speaker 1: I know, Dad, but we got him one. If you
Speaker 1: haven't seen the blog yet, there's my shameless plug to
Speaker 1: go watch. The can came from Houston, but Houston. That
Speaker 1: was fun and started out a little rocky, but thankfully
Speaker 1: it ended like it did in Arizona. Your Panthers are
Speaker 1: two and two, and we have to follow up something
Speaker 1: from last week. We nominated a homecoming court, so now
Speaker 1: we must crown our homecoming king, the biggest honor that
Speaker 1: anyone on this football roster could possibly get. Here we
Speaker 1: go aside from a thumbs up your We did start
Speaker 1: a lot of words. Yeah, yeah, I'm just hey, I'm
Speaker 1: just trying to give give some shout out, give some awards.
Speaker 1: We did start a new segment sidebar, We started a
Speaker 1: new segment called the Weekly because it comes out weekly.
Speaker 1: It's pretty creative. But Bill and I are back with
Speaker 1: our daily esque type video and we hand out these
Speaker 1: amazingly cheap thumbs up trophies. If you haven't seen it,
Speaker 1: go to Twitter, my Twitter or Bill's panther. Bill Uh,
Speaker 1: just I think it's you know, you know where those
Speaker 1: trophies came from a couple of years ago. Our department
Speaker 1: for like morale after some games would give we would
Speaker 1: like give it to somebody who had a really good
Speaker 1: game day, like in the digital department. So it was
Speaker 1: like Melissa got like these amazing photos and it was like, Melissa,
Speaker 1: you've you've earned the thumbs up trophy for this week.
Speaker 1: And so it used to be something we would pass
Speaker 1: around Max. How many did you win? I didn't win
Speaker 1: very many, Yeah, because Max would just always every week
Speaker 1: it would deliver. Max always delivered. So it was like
Speaker 1: it would mainly veer towards social We're kind of like,
Speaker 1: you're kind of like Russell Wilson, like you just expected
Speaker 1: to know exactly, Yeah, okay, the Russell Wilson of the
Speaker 1: of the Digital crew, But I do I do remember
Speaker 1: that was that was kind of fun. Everybody had them
Speaker 1: on their desk. Will was really excited when he got one.
Speaker 1: Well because then I almost was like the everyone's like, well,
Speaker 1: all Will is never going to get one because I
Speaker 1: don't do anything on social so Amy just kind of
Speaker 1: gave me a pity one. I got pretty excited about it.
Speaker 1: Participation pretty much. The only one that I've seen around
Speaker 1: the office is Bill Bill Still. Yeah, so that's where
Speaker 1: I got the idea from. I saw that sitting on
Speaker 1: his desk, and I was like, wait, that would be
Speaker 1: a very funny thing. And can you imagine. Greg Van
Speaker 1: wrote in like holding that trophy. You just need to
Speaker 1: go watch it because you'll see how cheap they are
Speaker 1: at the very end of the video. We just got
Speaker 1: these in earlier this week, and let's just say we
Speaker 1: already down one for the count because they're just so
Speaker 1: well made. But that is the weekly Go check that out.
Speaker 1: But let's get back to the homecoming Court. Another award
Speaker 1: second to the thumbs up obviously, but let's go. I
Speaker 1: don't know who wants to go first. Who's on here?
Speaker 1: You can go first, Max, Okay, I am going to
Speaker 1: give mine to Ross Cockrell, who had to step in
Speaker 1: for Dante Jackson and the starting lineup. And when we
Speaker 1: revealed that via the Aactive story, the reaction was pretty
Speaker 1: dire from Panther Nation and we got the KK short,
Speaker 1: the really tough news about KK that he's going on
Speaker 1: season ending I rum but before that, he was questionable
Speaker 1: to that game. So when people saw that both those
Speaker 1: guys were down, as Caroline's mentioning, everybody was just like, well,
Speaker 1: I don't need to watch this anymore. This this is
Speaker 1: an automatic ill um but not so. The D line
Speaker 1: has a lot of depth, and Ross Cockrell's a guy
Speaker 1: they really trust and are counting on. So he stepped
Speaker 1: in there and I thought played extremely well against that
Speaker 1: Houston offense and obviously had the big play right, It
Speaker 1: was that interception when the Texans are trying to run
Speaker 1: that trick play, the wide receiver pass. You know, I
Speaker 1: think people forget they were down at Caroline's eighteen yard
Speaker 1: line for that play. I mean they were in position
Speaker 1: to add points, if not a touchdown. They tried to
Speaker 1: get cute Ross Cockrell knew exactly what was coming. It
Speaker 1: was very similar to what the Giants had tried to
Speaker 1: run against Carolina last year. It was something around Vera
Speaker 1: mentioned during the week of prep. The Texans had shown
Speaker 1: that on tape last year. I think DeAndre Hopkins tried
Speaker 1: the same thing, so they were kind of on high
Speaker 1: alert for that. And you just gotta give Ross a
Speaker 1: ton of credit for not getting fooled, not getting dirty
Speaker 1: eyes as they say, and vacating his own He was
Speaker 1: right there. Hopkins threw it right to him. That was
Speaker 1: the most notable thing DeAndre Hopkins did in that game
Speaker 1: was throwing understand, So some credits a James Bradberry as
Speaker 1: well for locking him down. But a huge play in
Speaker 1: the game. And anytime we're gonna talk about Ross, we're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about his horrific injury last year. That's just
Speaker 1: part of his story now. But what a what a
Speaker 1: special moment for a guy who's come back from a
Speaker 1: lot emotionally and physically to have that kind of game
Speaker 1: when he gets plugged into the starting lineup and make
Speaker 1: that kind of play. It was very cool to see.
Speaker 1: When I think the homecoming King is always a popularity contest,
Speaker 1: and I have not seen this team celebrate the way
Speaker 1: that they did after he got that interception. So he
Speaker 1: was kind of a dark horse for this homecoming King.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. He wasn't in my top. I
Speaker 1: didn't think he made the court. Oh do we need
Speaker 1: to go review out of the stands. He was a
Speaker 1: write in. He was so popular that people just wrote
Speaker 1: him in there. All right, I'll go next to I'm
Speaker 1: going to give mine to a guy that was nominated,
Speaker 1: Mario Addison. He has five and a half sacks on
Speaker 1: this season. That's more than I believe, like some teams
Speaker 1: have as a total. And this will all come in
Speaker 1: two games, right half half a sack in that second game.
Speaker 1: Mario Addison is just a little bit of a dark
Speaker 1: horse name on this defensive line. We've talked about, you know,
Speaker 1: McCoy and Irvin and Brian Burns and all of these
Speaker 1: guys that have been added. But then Mario is just like, man,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna sit over here, my job a little bit.
Speaker 1: And so he got what the Dion Sanders called him.
Speaker 1: If you ball, you get the call, like he's getting
Speaker 1: the attention now, and I love it because he deserves it.
Speaker 1: So he is my homecoming king, doing exactly what you
Speaker 1: need to do to just stay in the running and
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden you break out with really
Speaker 1: these past two games, getting after very shifty quarterbacks. I
Speaker 1: think that's it too, And maybe that's why he's able
Speaker 1: to break through, because he is this guy that maybe
Speaker 1: not everyone's talking about, so he's not getting a lot
Speaker 1: of the attention, but because of his teammates around him,
Speaker 1: he's able to get through there and get the quarterback.
Speaker 1: So congratulations, Mario Addison, You're my homecoming king. Good stuff.
Speaker 1: I'm going with the goat of goats. Yeah all right,
Speaker 1: we haven't mentioned somebody out of goats. He leads the
Speaker 1: NFL and rushing leads the NFL and scrimmage yards has
Speaker 1: literally erased Angela Williams from all of the media. Guide
Speaker 1: you love bringing to Angelo back because it always right.
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, I mean, dude, dude was the entire offense,
Speaker 1: both receiving and rushing and blocking and doing everything of
Speaker 1: the snaps nearly a hundred yards, rushing nearly a hundred yards,
Speaker 1: receiving ten receptions, joined Jim Brown in any number of
Speaker 1: more records of things he's done in the first four games.
Speaker 1: Dude's a beast, and because it's a popularity contest, he wins,
Speaker 1: right because literally all of all of the videos that
Speaker 1: we have of the sideline are just of them watching
Speaker 1: him talking about Christian McCaffrey. Yeah, how great was that
Speaker 1: from the mic up. If you haven't seen it yet,
Speaker 1: check it out. Brian Burns had the wire on and
Speaker 1: he and Kyle Love just like the league. Not to
Speaker 1: mention Kyle Love requesting burgers if you have not seen
Speaker 1: this wire uniqu to go that the defensive line showed
Speaker 1: up on this and gave us so much. Whoever's on
Speaker 1: the other side of this, bring us some choose burgers. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, he is a beast and like even I
Speaker 1: think it's like first run or second run or something.
Speaker 1: He drugged DJ Reader like five yards. This was not
Speaker 1: like a momentum. Oh, I'm still going DJ is just
Speaker 1: going to slow me down. No, all three hundred and
Speaker 1: thirty pounds of DJ Reader was just sliding across the
Speaker 1: turf as Christian McCaffrey work just worked him over and
Speaker 1: got like so more yards. I had to go google
Speaker 1: how much he waged because I'm like, there's no way
Speaker 1: he just did a sled pole here and this is
Speaker 1: what the second or third play of the game. And
Speaker 1: then he keeps doing it and he said after the game,
Speaker 1: this is the best part. In the locker room. He's
Speaker 1: just run his butt off the entire game and he's
Speaker 1: sitting there complaining. He's like, this is the worst part
Speaker 1: of the game, taking off his show pass. He's yelling
Speaker 1: in the locker room, this is the worst part of
Speaker 1: the day. Like having to take him off. He has
Speaker 1: like two or three people in buckling him, like pulling
Speaker 1: the tight jersey off of him. Yeah, he's such a beast.
Speaker 1: But Max question about this though, thirty seven total touches,
Speaker 1: seven carries, The snaps like, don't you think I think
Speaker 1: I think we have to talk about too much for him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think what we have with the most impressive thing
Speaker 1: about Christians performance Sunday wasn't It wasn't type performance where
Speaker 1: he's running for big plays fifty yard run, thirty yard catch,
Speaker 1: and he had to work for every single yard he
Speaker 1: got against the Texans. I mean, he was pretty banged up, bruised,
Speaker 1: up after that game. It was a physically demanding war inside.
Speaker 1: It's what Greg Van Ruin called it. So I thought
Speaker 1: that was one of the most impressive things about Christian
Speaker 1: was that he had he had to fight for every
Speaker 1: yard he got against that Texans defense. There was a
Speaker 1: lot of carnage between the tackles. But to your point, Will,
Speaker 1: I think everyone is very impressed with the production, the
Speaker 1: fact that he carried the offense. They literally hitched their
Speaker 1: wagon to twenty two against the Texans. But the other
Speaker 1: part of this conversation is are they putting too much
Speaker 1: on Christian? Are there concerns long term about having your
Speaker 1: workhorse have to work that hard? Thirty seven touches with
Speaker 1: the most he's ever had in his career. As we said,
Speaker 1: that was a physically demanding game for your star running back.
Speaker 1: So that's another part of this conversation that's that's being
Speaker 1: had right now. Mama says, my mama said, Mama said,
Speaker 1: my mama said, Mama said, listen, what just happened. I
Speaker 1: don't I don't care if you think my boys running
Speaker 1: too much. Listen, I've been training him for this his
Speaker 1: whole life. I do not understand why you think Christian
Speaker 1: hadn't been like he can handle this thirty seven, Hell,
Speaker 1: given forty five, given forty five carries a game. Southern
Speaker 1: Mama has arrived. I don't want to hear it. I've
Speaker 1: been seeing too much trash on this Twitter thing. T eater.
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't. So Southern Mama, you you, you don't.
Speaker 1: You don't buy into all this this concerned people have
Speaker 1: about Christian being overused. No, listen, we used to have
Speaker 1: these cookouts every weekend. We when Christian was growing up.
Speaker 1: And I'm run him back and forth from the fridge
Speaker 1: about fifty times a day trying to get me different things.
Speaker 1: I needed the mayonnaise and and the cheese and all
Speaker 1: this stuff. My boy's been carrying the rock for his
Speaker 1: whole life. Didn't Christian grew up in Colorado? Yeah? I
Speaker 1: think he did. They got red Listen, they got red
Speaker 1: necks out there. They got they got red necks out
Speaker 1: there in Colorado too. It's just different cons We're just different.
Speaker 1: So Southern Mama, you don't feel like maybe some of
Speaker 1: the other running backs should get in there for a
Speaker 1: few carries here and there. Jordan's Scarlett. They used to
Speaker 1: draft pick on this year and you think just keep
Speaker 1: it should be Christian Christian Christians. I mean, we appreciate
Speaker 1: them boys sitting in the running backs room with him
Speaker 1: and keeping him company throughout this season. But if you
Speaker 1: take my boy off the field, you go lose. And
Speaker 1: I will say that real quick. I think he needs
Speaker 1: to be out there because why, I mean why not?
Speaker 1: You think he needs a rest? You want to take
Speaker 1: him off? Why don't you take him off? Coach? That's
Speaker 1: one's really dragging him out the field. Don't you take
Speaker 1: him off? How many? How many touches is too much
Speaker 1: for Christian? Do you think in one game that does
Speaker 1: not exist? I think that that math saying that goes
Speaker 1: the limit does not exist. That that's exactly calculus to
Speaker 1: the adity. But the best part about this whole thing
Speaker 1: is Christian's mother is so sweet, real mother, not not
Speaker 1: southern mama that just hopped out of her wagon to
Speaker 1: come in here. No, yeah, she's such a sweet lady
Speaker 1: that I can't do that with a straight face. You
Speaker 1: actually did it pretty good? Did I started thinking about
Speaker 1: the sweet woman that is truly Christian McCaffrey's mother. God,
Speaker 1: that's not it. That's not a true representation of Lisa
Speaker 1: is Southern Mama. Does she have her passport ready? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think I might go. They've asked, have the Southern
Speaker 1: Mambre gone to London before? Do I look like I've gone?
Speaker 1: Do I say, I'm like I've been a press that pond.
Speaker 1: Do I know Southern Mama ha never been over there?
Speaker 1: But they don't asked. I've seen them busses before, that
Speaker 1: Mayor Kate Nashley movie. I've seen it on their Southern
Speaker 1: Mama is going to take, we might, we might take.
Speaker 1: She's got to she has to come with us. Southern
Speaker 1: Mama needs in names. If you're listening out there, I've
Speaker 1: thrown around just like like big Mama, but that's actually
Speaker 1: truly what we called my grandmother and now my mom
Speaker 1: who was a grandmother, we call her that. My mom
Speaker 1: sounds nothing like this everyone out there. But so I
Speaker 1: can't buy into the big Mamma thing, but I've I've
Speaker 1: used that around. So if you're listening and you want
Speaker 1: her to come back, which is would be astounding. I
Speaker 1: don't think everyone gets to choose. I think something just comes.
Speaker 1: But and she wants to come. Yeah, like there's like
Speaker 1: she wasn't invited today, she just showed she just comes
Speaker 1: when she feels like someone needs to be defended, she
Speaker 1: gonna come out her trade. She gonna talk about or
Speaker 1: when when someone needs to be you know, whipped. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's it, that's it. Yeah, but that is nothing at
Speaker 1: Leasta McCaffrey is a wonderful woman and sounds nothing like that.
Speaker 1: So sorry, if you listen, If Leasta McCaffrey listen and
Speaker 1: she's on the twitter, right, we'll get a kick out.
Speaker 1: He's on that on that tweter, she's on the tweeters
Speaker 1: on the tweter. He would love this at hersh Maybe
Speaker 1: you should will because you actually know her and how
Speaker 1: you know her is the best story of all differ.
Speaker 1: We're gonna tease that up. But to really talk about
Speaker 1: this Christian McCaffrey, is he being overworked just you can't
Speaker 1: take him off the field. I think a conversation that
Speaker 1: we've talked about was in that second half when when
Speaker 1: the Panthers are trying to control the clock and run
Speaker 1: it down and do all those things. Yeah, maybe that's
Speaker 1: when you think, well, where are these other running backs?
Speaker 1: Can we put them in? But what Christian McCaffrey does
Speaker 1: on the field, even if he's not getting the ball,
Speaker 1: which he gets the ball a lot, but if he's
Speaker 1: not getting the ball, he's pulling attention, allowing other playmakers.
Speaker 1: And I think when you look back at, you know,
Speaker 1: the first game that Kyle Island started, the second one,
Speaker 1: now going into the third, you need all of those
Speaker 1: distractions out there, and Christian has to be out there.
Speaker 1: But I do agree it is a little alarming when
Speaker 1: you just look at the longevity of his career of
Speaker 1: what he can do. But then you look at you know,
Speaker 1: if we're gonna say that Christian McAffrey, is this the
Speaker 1: best running back and he's just this anomaly. Frank Gore
Speaker 1: is like thirty four years old and is still just
Speaker 1: get being the ball all the time. I saw him
Speaker 1: one time he was with the Colts. It was the
Speaker 1: Buffalo snow game. He carried the ball like close to
Speaker 1: forty times. We had a short week going into the
Speaker 1: next one. He immediately carried the ball like thirty times,
Speaker 1: like there was nothing there. So I think there is
Speaker 1: this debate to be had of are they flirting with
Speaker 1: the line of playing him too much? But Christian is stronger.
Speaker 1: I think something better. Some guys are built for this.
Speaker 1: I think, like Gore you mentioned, is one of those
Speaker 1: special guys who just could handle it. I think Christian
Speaker 1: has prepared himself really since high school. I mean, the
Speaker 1: guy has been on an NFL style training regimen, growing
Speaker 1: up in an NFL family, So I mean, I think
Speaker 1: I think he's built for it. But kind of to
Speaker 1: what you were saying, Caroline, a lot of times people
Speaker 1: are upset because he's playing a percent of the snaps,
Speaker 1: but it's a situation where he's not getting the ball
Speaker 1: all the time. This was a situation where he got
Speaker 1: the ball all the time. This was a career high
Speaker 1: thirty seven touches, And I think that's where people are
Speaker 1: getting a little just antsy about, and it's coming from
Speaker 1: a good place. I think everybody wants to see Christian
Speaker 1: play well for a long time. You know, like this
Speaker 1: is this is a guy that's clearly a superstar in
Speaker 1: this league. You want to see him, you know, continue
Speaker 1: to play at this level at this pace. Um, I
Speaker 1: don't think that we're going to see thirty seven touches
Speaker 1: every week, but in the in the NFL, when you're
Speaker 1: in a situation like the Panthers were in at one
Speaker 1: and two, desperately needing to get to two into They
Speaker 1: were struggling a bit on offense. Kyle Allen had three
Speaker 1: strip sacks. The receivers weren't able to get very involved.
Speaker 1: Obviously that the defensive line for Houston was getting after it.
Speaker 1: They had to lean on Christian and they did. And
Speaker 1: if they felt like that was how they were gonna
Speaker 1: win that game and in the week to week season,
Speaker 1: that is the NFL. That's what it came down to
Speaker 1: for North turn or that offense. It was. It was
Speaker 1: twenty two and it was just gonna be a heavy
Speaker 1: dose to that. I don't think it's gonna be like
Speaker 1: that every week. I do understand people feeling like, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a little worried about all this, this
Speaker 1: this usage for Christian. But I mean, this guy's a
Speaker 1: young guy and they're going to continue. I've always said this,
Speaker 1: even when the offseason that we're talking about, hey, or
Speaker 1: maybe trying to find a compliment this or that. I'll
Speaker 1: believe it when I see it, and we have yet
Speaker 1: to see it. It's it's the Christian show and it's
Speaker 1: going to be that way for a while. And Christian
Speaker 1: doesn't I feel like he doesn't take hit hits Sunday
Speaker 1: Sunday that, Yeah, that was different. It was a different
Speaker 1: kind of game, and I think that's why Sunday was more.
Speaker 1: They will right, you know, but you're right. I think
Speaker 1: typically the most part, he was pretty just pretty good
Speaker 1: job of managing himself throughout the course of the game. Right.
Speaker 1: I do think the game plane is important in this one,
Speaker 1: just because of the past rush that Houston had. I mean,
Speaker 1: this was how the Panthers had to play this game
Speaker 1: if they were going to give Kyle Allen a chance.
Speaker 1: I mean, they ran the ball as much as they did,
Speaker 1: and there were three strip sacks in the game. Like
Speaker 1: imagine they were just allowing Kyle to sit back there.
Speaker 1: It would have been it would have been more than
Speaker 1: that because of who was coming after him. I think
Speaker 1: it's like if you look at what the Steelers are
Speaker 1: doing with Udolph right now at quarterback, there were more
Speaker 1: wildcats in that game than we've seen in any NFL game.
Speaker 1: I feel like, So it's just the game playing week
Speaker 1: by week. Looking at this Jacksonville team, you don't have
Speaker 1: the past rush that Houston had, but there's some different
Speaker 1: nuances that they're going to have to prepare for Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: I would be shocked if again he gets the ball
Speaker 1: that many times. Like you're saying, yeah, so would I.
Speaker 1: I mean Southern MoMA, my house. Something to say about
Speaker 1: that of defending Christian then in that one, Yeah, Greg
Speaker 1: Olsen said after the Houston win, the first words out
Speaker 1: of his mouth where that was ugly. And now everybody
Speaker 1: in this locker room is gonna take an ugly win.
Speaker 1: But they know they need to play better on offense. Uh,
Speaker 1: They're coming back home. They've dropped their first two of
Speaker 1: the season at home after two road wins. They got
Speaker 1: that change of scenery that grega talked about it might
Speaker 1: be good for this team. That happened. They got two
Speaker 1: important road wins and now coming back on their home field,
Speaker 1: that offensive especially has to has to start clicking again.
Speaker 1: It was great in Arizona, obviously they had a tough
Speaker 1: time in Houston. Got to protect the football. As we've said,
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen will be the first to tell you he
Speaker 1: was disappointed with the fact that you put the ball
Speaker 1: on the ground that many times. He's got five lost
Speaker 1: fumbles already, if I'm right, four or five fumbles lost
Speaker 1: four I just it's just too much. You're not gonna
Speaker 1: put yourself in a position to win if you're giving
Speaker 1: the ball away. Um. And then and they look as
Speaker 1: great as Christian is. This offense is at its best
Speaker 1: when they spread the ball around, when guys like d J. Warren,
Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel are getting involved. Greg. All of that coming
Speaker 1: together makes them much more difficult to defend. This Jacksonville
Speaker 1: team is pretty good, you know, and they've they're riding
Speaker 1: their own high a little bit right now. With their
Speaker 1: backup quarterback. They're gonna come in here with some confidence. Um.
Speaker 1: But the Panthers on their home field have to sort
Speaker 1: of dictate the terms of this and and start getting
Speaker 1: getting everybody involved offensively, because I think we all know
Speaker 1: now that this defense is going to come to play.
Speaker 1: I mean I think they they've found something. I mean,
Speaker 1: fourteen sacks in two games. If I'm Gardner, Menshew, I
Speaker 1: was saying, I better be looking both ways. This is
Speaker 1: a big game too. I mean back at home, they
Speaker 1: got that change of scenery. You get two road wins,
Speaker 1: but this cant of Panthers team is not one at
Speaker 1: home yet in a long long time. Uh Tampa Bay, Yeah,
Speaker 1: November of last and it's been a while, so it's
Speaker 1: been a long time coming, you know, that's in the
Speaker 1: back of their minds. So this is a very very
Speaker 1: big week, but it's it's a new month. So can
Speaker 1: we just say that it's October now, so maybe October
Speaker 1: football is when we really start getting it. Is it
Speaker 1: Pumpkin spice football? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is. Knox has
Speaker 1: no reaction. I react like, oh yeah, well, mainly because
