Go Broncos? What?


I assumed you were programmed correctly to recognize that an AFC win could not help us in the long run as that's potentially a competitor for a playoff spot.


Don't like either team, but as a Jag fan, the logical thing is to root Carolina.

Panthers in a blowout. 

 

Maybe 7-14 points, but I don't see a blowout coming.

 

People who think Denver will not be good this year because of their QB  situation were not paying attention the seven times Brock Osweiler started a game. Denver is a run-first team and can beat opponents such as Carolina with defense.

---

I picked the Broncos at home. I'll be rooting for the Panthers.

---

Football is back. Yeeee hawwww

---

I picked the Broncos at home. I'll be rooting for the Panthers.

 

Why do you want the Panthers to win?

---

I just want the Panthers to expose some of Denver's weaknesses so that Blake can pick them apart later this season. Hopefully it will end in a tie.

---

I ain't no monkey... I'm an ape.

Come on CJ Anderson! Give me some good numbers!

No commercial messages in sigs

Panthers in a blowout. 

 

I hope so. There's some $$$ riding on this game.

---

Why do you want the Panthers to win?

 

  From a Jaguars standpoint,  a Panthers win tonight could potentially be the difference in the Jaguars getting into the playoffs or getting a higher seed in the playoffs. 

---

Last I saw point spread was -3 for the Panthers. I will take that spread for sure

---

Go Panthers! 

---

I see Kuechly dominating this game

---

I'll be interested in seeing how Denver's front seven perform without Malik Jackson
