I think they worked out Carson Palmer's signals early on, because they were getting the jump on his receivers' routes all night.

Maybe that would be plausible if this was a one game wonder. You don't lead the league in takeaways and turnover diff by figuring out one quarterback's hand signals.

it was panthers ball hawking players who played intense as usual, plus the highly disruptive d-line who were able to make that statue of a qb feel the pressure. also credit to the offense for putting the game so far out of the reach of the cardinals they had to resort to a bunch of wild desperation throws in attempt to try and catch up. this has been the story all season.

Yeah, there were a lot of other things contributing to the win that they have been doing all year, I just posted one of the things I noticed.

I think defensively Luke is absolutely the reason why the plays get diagnosed so fast. He studies like a madman and is prepared game day. You can see his leadship paying dividends when he can diagnose the plays and audibles and makes the defense adjust. That has been going all season, he is an amazing football player. I think defensively the panthers would have been ranked higher for the season had it not been for the offense firing on all cylinders. A lot of games where over and out of reach by the 3rd quarter this year and after that the defense went into soft prevent mode. Essentially trading yards for time off the clock. It's frustrating to watch until you realize after the game that you still won and it wasn't really even close.

I was happy to watch the panthers actually play the whole 4 quarters for a change. Even after the game was out of reach for the cards..

I can't throw rocks, they did better than I would have.




CBS Butchers Coverage of the AFC Championship Game in Only 14 Seconds

On Sunday, the Denver Broncos held off Tom Brady and the New England Patriots in a 20-18 thriller at Sports Authority Field in Colorado. Hall of Famer Peyton Manning gets what may be one last crack to win a second Super Bowl championship, and there’s no doubt that the win has lots of people excited, including this on-camera duo for CBS.

In a 14-second clip uploaded to Twitter by the Director of Georgetown Athletics Chris Grosse, two anchors covering the Broncos-Pats matchup pretty disastrously fouled up a number of details. It sarted with the first sentence out of the female anchor’s mouth:

“The Patriots beat Denver in the regular season.” False. In week 12 of the regular season this year, the Patriots in fact lost their first game of the season in a 30-24 upset to the Broncos.

“…but of course the Broncos without Peyton Manning in that matchup.” This one checks out — Manning was in fact injured for much of the regular season.

“Yeah, Todd Orlosky was the quarterback for the Broncos when they beat the New England Patriots…” says her male coanchor, which is very much wrong because not only did Todd Orlosky not play for the Broncos in that game, Todd Orlosky doesn’t play in the NFL. In fact, the name seems to be utterly made up.

Instead, Brock Osweiler was the backup quarterback who led the Broncos to victory that November day.

Being a TV anchor is hard. It’s live and unscripted and you’re off the cuff and dancing without a safety net. I get it. But the number of flubs in this tight span perfectly captured by the above video is enough to make some people decry, “That guy didn’t even try.”

Dan Orlovsky was the guy who backed up and eventually replaced Manning in Indy, before they got Andrew Luck.
 
I'm not going to watch the game with the rest of the Animals but I was just informed that I'm rooting for Carolina because the quarterback is from GA.

Either you're watching it, with America, or you're not watching it, with the terrorists. Chicken wings be damned.
