that would be cut down somewhat south of the center inland because of the land drag.

Do not focus on the exact landfall point!!!! If the eye goes 50 miles south of the NHC track you'll be in the core of strong winds. You should prepare for the worst and hope for the best. Either way, you'll see winds strong enough to cause damage(trees and powerlines) and cause outages.
