Monty’s Super Bowl 44 Thoughts

New Orleans Saints Troy Evans (54) celebrates after winning the Super Bowl XLIV

Before the game started here is what I thought would happen…

-The game would cover the 57 points and possibly be the highest scoring Super Bowl ever

-Colts would win, but the won’t cover the five points

-Brees and Manning would have huge games

-It would be a close game with few punts

-Game would come down to final drive/big turnover

Recap: I wasn’t too hot on my predictions, seeing as that it was a lower scoring game than anticipated and the Saints won by double digits. O well, I wasn’t right, but what else is new

During the game here were my thoughts

NFL Season Preview: NFC South

Without a healthy Delhomme, the Panthers are in serious trouble

Carolina Panthers (11-5)

Key Additions:  Everette Brown (DE) and that’s it.

Key Departures:  D.J. Hackett (WR); Ken Lucas (CB); Jeremy Bridges (G); Geoff Hangartner (C).

The Panthers come into 2009 with one of the league’s best rushing attack.  DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart are known all around the football world and are the best 1-2 punch in football.  Williams exploded for 20 touchdowns last year, a huge breakout campaign.  Stewart is the perfect compliment with his ability to wear down opposing defenses with his bruising style.  The hope is that Jake Delhomme can lead this team to another Super Bowl run.  He’s arguably more important than either Williams or Stewart due to the lack of depth at the quarterback position.  At receiver, the Panthers lack depth, as well.  Mushin Muhammad is 36, and Steve Smith isn’t the surest thing to stay healthy at receiver.  Dwayne Jarrett has a lot of potential as the #3 receiver, but if one of those three go down, the team is in trouble.  That’s where the loss of D.J. Hackett could hurt.  The offensive line is led by former first-round pick Jordan Gross.  Jeff Otah, Ryan Kalil and Travelle Wharton are three other keys to one of the best offensive lines in the league.  It’s no wonder Williams had such a big year last year.
