Carolina Panthers: Battle in Seattle?

Are there any football fanz out there? Following the playoffs?

I'll give you 250 of my points if you correctly guess the final score in Sunday's game between the Carolina Panthers and the Chicago Bears.

(Mods willing. )

I predict a close game. Carolina 27, Chicago 23

7 panthers 3 bears, will be defensive boxing match.

I'm sure it'll be a knock-down-drag-out, alright. If DeShaun Foster keeps up his fancy footwork, they're sure to score big. Especially with Steve Smith out there floating over everyone's heads.

well, i'll say this, if its not 7 it'll be over 21 to 3, the bears offense will fall

How I hope you're right!

Chicago will win and the weather will be a factor, as well as home field advantage.

Care to predict the score, Seekerof?

Panthers ain't scared'a no bad weather!

I'm going with the Panthers. Chicago may have beat us the last meeting, but we're out to kick butt.

Panthers- 20, Bears- 17 in overtime.

Going to be a good game.

Chicago-25 Caroline-14 and I'll throw this in Thomas Jones rushes for over a hundred yards.

Beware of Steve Smith. He's electric.

Predictions duly noted.

I might sound a little crazy but I believe it's going to be a blowout. A blowout in favor of Da Bears. Carolina 10 Chicago 40.

It never hurts to dream....

I think it'll be close; but that's exactly when Carolina plays its best.

I play fantasy leagues and he didnt even finish in the top ten.
I'm a Minnesota Vikings fan and I had no Vikings on my fantasy teams. Won the league with recievers like Joe Jurevicious. But I am a Tar Heel fan. Lived in Asheville. Got to see Jordan Play at Chapel Hill.
So here's an educated guess.........Foster-less than 100 yards,Smith-1 TD
Carolina puts up more yards but not points. Peppers has 2 sacks.

Bears win 9-3.

Grossman plays well enough to control the ball and eat the clock. Bears 'D' dominates, preventing Delhomme from utilizing his receivers.

Of course, I could be wrong.

Honestly, I think the weather at Soldier Field will be the only thing that could stop the Panthers. If this turns into a battle of defenses because of really crappy weather, then it's up in the air. If the weathers decent, Carolina wins by ten.

Peace

We shall see.. I hope for your sake, Steve Smith doesn't rub your nose in X.

It's possible he could. And therein lies the rub. He's a very good reciever but you never know who's gonna show up. I do pretty good pickin football games(people at work bet on my picks and noones killed me yet). Take the Pats this week.

Everyone discounts us b/c of weather.

For some reason the Panthers do well on the road. Anyone remember their Super bowl run in '03? Everyone discounted them. And they wound up rolling over everone on the way - away. It was sweet. I'll never forget that season. Even if they did lose to New England.

I'm sure most people missed this.. but, the first pre-season game Carolinas played the following season was against New England. How ironic. Guess who won? Carolina. It was an exact rematch. In the end, the only difference was Carolina had the time they needed to win.

It was great.

right on. I don't remember the preseason game. All I get here is these miserable Bucs fans here in Florida. I still say they woulda won that Super Bowl with my dad as coach(don't worry hes too old).
Dungy shoulda got that trophy.

I had more fun watching Carolina in '03 than any team since the Pittsburgh Steelers' glory dayz. That Super Bowl with New England was the best I've ever seen.

Here we go!
