Carolina Panthers 2009 Preview 
Bleacher Report | by Silver Fox | Sun, Aug 16
Sun, Aug 16
With the addition of two draft picks, Carolina's secondary went from thin to improved quickly. I think that Richard Marshall will be the number two corner opposite Chris Gamble, C.J. Wilson will be the nickel CB, and Sherrod Martin and Captain Munnerlyn will be their back-ups.
27 mainstream media weighed in on a similar topic
Today,
Matt Miselis from Bleacher Report says
(in Miselis Edition: Week Nine NFL Predictions)
Houston @ Indianapolis 1.00 PM on CBS
Dallas Clark will need to be a factor as he normally is, specifically a touchdown reception to lay the pressure off of Reggie Wayne.
Prediction: Indianapolis 28 Houston 27
Prediction: New York 28 San Diego 20
Yesterday,
Bobby Lewis from Bleacher Report says
(in NFL Week Nine Predictions)
Houston (5-3) @ Indianapolis (7-0)
San Diego (4-3) @ New York Giants (5-3)
New York will go into this game with more urgency than San Diego will. They will have their fans behind them. They will not lose their fourth in a row. They can't afford to lose; San Diego can.
New York Giants win, 26-20

Andrew Zercie from Bleacher Report says
(in Spread 'Em: Week Nine NFL Picks)
Houston (+9) over Indianapolis
Texans 21, Colts 20
Seahawks 27, Lions 21
49ers 31, Titans 28
While both teams will score their share of points, the Eagles’ defense seems to be able to shut teams down when the need arises, and I think this ability will play a decisive role in this game.

New York Giants D/ST
While it’s still too early to wave the white flag in New York, fantasy owners need to take a step back from Big Blue until the defense figures out how to stop giving up the big play.

Doug Rush from Bleacher Report says
(in NFL Predictions: Week Nine)
So all eyes will be on the NFL now.
Houston Texans @ Indianapolis Colts
This could be an offensive shootout, but the Colts are still the best team in the NFL with a better defense than Houston, which will be the deciding factor.
San Diego Chargers @ New York Giants

(in The Elevator: Panthers Avenge Playoff Loss, Run over Cardinals)
The Panthers won't have any time to celebrate Sunday's performance, as they will head to New Orleans for a big NFC South matchup next weekend. The Saints play the Falcons on Monday Night Football this week, meaning one of those teams will be one heavier in the loss column which only helps th...

(in 2009 NFL Season: Week 8 Preview)
Also looking to exact revenge are the New York Giants (5-2), who will visit the Philadelphia Eagles (4-2) in a key NFC East divisional matchup.
Despite the injury, Bradshaw says he will play against the Birds so you know all eyes will be on him and the Giants veteran O-line.

With home field advantage throughout the playoffs possibly on the line, Denver will keep this closer than many think it will be. I don't think it will be enough.
I think this game will be a real toss-up, but I like the Eagles here just because they will have more on the line than Denver. It will be a...

(in Fantasy Football News & Notes (10/30))
Indianapolis Colts’ wide receiver Reggie Wayne suffered a pulled groin in the team’s Week 7 victory over the St. Louis Rams and he did not finish the game. He said that he “feels good,” but did not practice with the team on Wednesday. Colts’ head coach Jim Caldwell said, “We’re hoping he will pr...

Phil Shore from Bleacher Report says
(in Who Will Win in Week 8?)
Three undefeated teams left. Will any of them lose this week?
Two winless teams in action this week. Will either of them get on the board, or will they continue their Detroit Lions-esque slide (coincidentally, one of those teams, St. Louis, will play at Detroit).

9. Arizona Cardinals (10) (4-2, Won 24-17 over the New York Giants)
6. New York Giants (6) (5-2, Lost 24-17 to the Arizona Cardinals)
The Patriots will have a bye week in Week Eight and they will only get healthier, which will be to their advantage as they are back on top of the AFC East.

Even if it does work, Singletary opens himself up to an endless slew of questioning about who will quarterback the team in the future. If he re-installs Hill and he struggles, the calls will come for Alex Smith.
The Texans' pass rush struggled to put pressure on Smith in the second half, and...

Adnan Tezer from Bleacher Report says

Chicago at Cincinnati (PK)
Indianapolis at St. Louis (+13)
San Francisco at Houston (-3)
He just might have a decent debut considering that the Texans can score with anyone but can’t stop anyone consistently. The 49’rs should benefit from Frank Gore’s return. Pick: Houston

(in Fantasy Football Week 7 Start 'Ems)
Eli Manning (New York Giants) vs. Arizona
With playmakers throughout his receiving corps in receivers Steve Smith, Mario Manningham, and Hakeem Nicks, who is emerging as a viable threat, New York could be posting some high passing totals.

(in NFL Week Seven Picks: From New England Patriots Fans' Perspective)
TR: It seems everybody has trouble figuring out Houston. Matt Schaub was hot last week, but I doubt his brief "streak" will continue. For the 'Niners, Crabtree will finally play, but I don't think his debut will mean much. And then again, there is Frank Gore...SF gets the win

Alex Roberts from Bleacher Report says
(in Thats a Wrap, Folks: The Panthers Need To Trade Steve Smith)
This team will be lucky to win six games. I hope I am wrong, but with John Fox coaching his worst season ever, it seems likely that the program will be in rebuild mode. This is Foxy's last year. The director of player personnel should be fired as well.

It’d suck to lose Eli Manning to a non-impact injury, but I think he’ll play through the pain. Steve Smith is turning into the most underrated wide receiver since Steve Smith.

(in Houston Texans Intend To Make Franchise History in 2009 Season)
Last season, Kubiak showed discontent toward defensive coordinator Richard Smith. Overall, the Houston Texans’ offense ranked third in the NFL, but the defense finished 22nd. So, the Texans elected to fire Smith, defensive line coach Jethro Franklin, and secondary coach Jon Hoke.
