Panthers Watch 2009 Morning Game Thread

PrintThe 49ers kick off at 1:05pm pacific time and we'll have our game thread up at 12:45. In the meantime, the Carolina Panthers kick off at 10am at the Meadowlands against the New York Giants. The Panthers annoyed us all with their rather impressive upset of the Minnesota Vikings. With their sixth win last week, the Panthers can now get no better than 6th draft pick. Still some great draft options so a couple more losses would certainly be welcome.
The morning provides us with several other intriguing games worth keeping an eye on for entertainment value and for 49ers value. The 5-9 Bills travel to the 7-7 Falcons, which means a Bills win pushes them closer to a better record than Carolina. The 5-9 Raiders travel to the 3-11 Browns, so a win by the Raiders would be nice. Of course, even though the Raiders beat teams like Pittsburgh, Philly and Denver, I would not be remotely shocked by a Browns upset.
Elsewhere, the Texans face the Dolphins in a playoff elimination battle between 7-7 squads, and the 7-7 Steelers host the Ravens in a must-win for Pittsburgh. So must win games across the board. If you haven't checked out Josh Branco's national preview, make sure you do that. Enjoy, and if you're in and out, we'll see you back here at 1 for the 49ers game.

Freakin' Fox!
I checked the schedule and they had only two games at 4pm EST, Niner and Cards. I checked my schedule and they have none of them. I thought it could be a nice day hanging out watching the Panthers get beat by the Gints and then watch the 9ers take it to the Lions. Oh well still got you guys. :-)

CBS has the doubleheader this week
What we've got here is a failure to communicate.

These stations play more than football? LOL
If it’s not sports or history or science on our tv (ok and cooking from the wife) it pretty much doesn’t go on. Especially with the daughter now on her own.

Pats look for a RB in first or 2nd. Probably second since they have about 30 of the 32 picks there it seems LOL

I am sorry
But if the cowboys and giants both make playoffs I will kill myself. Go Panthers, I will take a lesser draft pick if I can just live the rest of my life.
How many times has Joe Montana thrown an interception in a super bowl?
OT Question
I’m a Niner fan on vacation in San Diego for the week. Looking for a good sports bar to catch the game this afternoon. Anyone have a suggestion? Thanks in advance.
Here's to the Dodgers and their bucket of suck.
San Diego sports bar
I’m up in San Francisco so can’t help much. But a quick google search could give you something to work with. Maybe check yelp for some of these?

Thanks
I found one called Typhoon Saloon in Pacific Beach in case anyone out there cares. It was the best out-of-town Niners bar I’ve ever been to. Lots of good fans too — never seen so many Montana and Rice jerseys in one place.

Matt Moore looks better than Smith

pretty much.
Sean Smith > any DB the Niners could select with their 1st rounder this year
Still don’t like the trade.
Rays in '08.... Desmond Jennings - the breakout continues.....

Quitter.
Im still all for trading up to get Berry. Whats the use of having 2 early 1st round picks if youre not gonna explore their value as bargaining chips? or use them to get the player you really need??
Berry > All
May have to be both 1st rounders which I wouldn't do

I really doubt it.
At the very most one of the 1st rounders and the 2nd rounder.
Berrys gonna go in the #4-#6 range. The 49ers are (most likely) gonna have both picks in the #9-#12 range. Nobodys gonna ask for something as absurd as both 1st rounders when youre only trading back 5 or so spots. If anything the 49ers are saving that team a good 15 million in guaranteed money. Teams have been very willing to trade back in recent years because of the inflated rookie contracts in the top 10. Hell i wouldnt be suprised to see the Niners pull off a 1st,3rd,and 4th to get Berry.
Picks are dropping
Panthers win today and the 49ers win out, plus the Panthers have the Saints who won’t be playing to win they have homefield throughout the playoffs.

WOW
Janikowski just kicked a 61-yard field goal to end the first half. I picked him up last night for my fantasy football championship game and get 6 points for a 60+ yard field goal!
Good (site decorum)
I would never pick a Raiders player

Wow
What an ass-kicking the Panthers are delivering to the Jints.
That will be #7 for Carolina.
Nevertheless, a first-rounder is a first-rounder.

lol i was going to...
but then i realized someone would bring it up here.
but honestly sing needs to hire a new ST coach because we are stuck with bums and i don’t get how we got people returning the ball that never have returned 1 kick instead of a guy who has… makes no sense to me.

I never understood why people hated on JOnes so much when he was returning punts.
Alot of the time he was hit as soon as he got the ball. To his credit he really did try to make people miss, he just had no help from the special teams as a whole.
Spurlock...
Just ran a kr back for a touchdown…..why was he not doing this for us?
"Of all the things in the world losing isn't so bad; it just starts to feel like it does when you do it for so long"
He didn’t get very many chances…2 maybe…
