The outcome of this game affects every game this week because if the breeze picks up, Rodgers will get a roughing call.
Everyone seems to be ignoring the greatest part of this game. The reigning NFC champs with arguably the best defense in football got beat by a 7th round "rookie" QB.
Every Panther deserves a shot to the head for that one.

Lol....wut? Panthers don't have the best D. We start two rookie CBs and we have no DE depth. They're good but not anywhere close to number one. Thursday night showed that too.

Yo Z, honest question here. How does your fan base feel about losing the opener after winning 14 (i think it was?) straight last year? Are you guys glad the undefeated hype is gone?
Also, your opinion on the loss of Josh Norman. Do you think the game would've been different with him out there?

Losing always sucks - period.
Tough question about Josh. If we're using Thursday as a one game sample size then he'll yeah we would have been better with Josh. It was most noticeable in the run support even more than shutting down WRs. I'm just not ready to go down that road because I agree with the decision to let him go even though he is a stud.
One thing I do think though is that we missed Josh's swag on D even more than his CB abilities. Up until the Super Bowl we were always the tougher team on the field and Denver has twice now punched us hard in the mouth. The D wasn't good on Thursday. I think Josh would have made a different in the attitude mostly.
After seeing the hits again - especially with slo-mo, I am even more shocked that he NFL hasn't issued $$$ fines against the players AND the zebras involved. Pretty obvious to all that Cam took shots that would have created big fines if they happened to Brees/Rodgers/Brady...

I expect Cam to get those calls going forward, at least some of them.
