Week 15 Monday night football betting preview
“It’s primetime football, so they’re going to try to make a statement. I take solace in understanding that we kick butt and we will again this year when we go and play each other this summer”. The Redskins have been relatively blessed this season, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing left to ask for. Quarterback Cam Newton didn’t exactly come storming back after his disciplinary/fashion issues the Week 13, completing 10 of 27 passes for 160 yards and a touchdown pass to Devin Funchness, but it didn’t matter too much as San Diego weren’t able to put up much resistance to what Carolina were doing. They have amassed a 4-1 record over the last 5 games they have played at home.
The Washington Post indicates that the Panthers will need to win their final three games and get a little bit of help along the way, but in the insane NFC South, it seems anything can happen. He has just 20 touchdown through 13 games.
Norman is an expressive player, and facing the team that rescinded his tag and walked away from him must be somewhat complicated.
When healthy, Kuechly is one of the best overall defenders in the NFL.
Carolina ripped through the Redskins like a hot knife through butter last season when they crushed Washington 44-16 in a game played in North Carolina. “I think that was part of the decision”.
The Redskins’ defense always struggles to contain tight ends, and Greg Olsen is one of the best (907 receiving yards). He runs a lot of slot receiver type of routes because of his ability to change direction and run after the catch. He went so far as to hire Ryan Williams to represent him instead of George, and then Norman offered to work out a mutually agreeable deal to stay in Carolina. “When he’s been on the field, he’s showed his talent”. Head coach Ron Rivera has stated this past week that his team will compete to win despite being eliminated from postseason contention. “I think you have to have that when you get into the professional realm of football because you play in front of 70, 60, 80 thousand”. Washington accumulated only 14 rushing yards, nine first downs, and 186 total yards on offense. Cam Newton threw five touchdown passes and Jonathan Stewart rushed for 102 yards.
Reed is Washington’s per-game receiving leader this season (6.0 receptions and 64.4 yards per game), but it is Jamison Crowder who has emerged to pace the offense in touchdowns, with seven.
“They’ve got a good running game”, Rivera said.
“You find a play”. “What a difference a person can make”.
After a remarkable 15-1 regular season and a march to the Super Bowl previous year, the Panthers have had everything go wrong in 2016. See if I can’t take something right here.’ If I can’t do that, shoot, [defensive coordinator Joe Barry] [can] call me a blitz. “He’s tough. He’ll do anything”.
