Let me see if they are in a group or spread out.

Yeah, I never said he wasn't. Though I don't necessarily agree with that. My only point was that sack wasn't on him. It was on the LT. You can argue alot about things he doesn't do well, but he definitely avoided 4-5 sacks in that game alone.

Yeah, I think people are missing on that part when they are saying "no big deal." Remember how often Donte Jackson got called out for this? Well....he has a lower missed tackle percentage over the past two seasons than Jaycee Horn does. Make no mistake, this is not good.

Cover 0 is a tough ask when there is no immediate pressure. a good wr should win that more than not.

So glad to hear, that after 3 years with Young, 2 years with Canales and Idzik are ‘worjong on things’ related to getting extremely short yardage because they dont want to use young on sneaks. It is mind boggling It isnt like they havent known his height and weight up close and personal if i were the owner, id be finding a better OC or a better QB to come in for Young if they insist on keeping him it ised to be done fir Brees all the time Why Panthers’ Dave Canales won’t run a QB sneak with Bryce Young Mike Kaye [email protected] 7 hrs ago Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young scrambled on a broken play on third-and-3 with 11:47 remaining in the fourth quarter on Sunday at Caesars Superdome. He ran for two yards, just shy of the first-down marker against the New Orleans Saints. Head coach Dave Canales, with a 17-7 lead on the road, decided to go for it on fourth-and-1 from the New Orleans 37-yard line. Canales called a handoff from under center to running back Chuba Hubbard, but the ball-carrier was curbed at the line of scrimmage, forcing a turnover on downs within field-goal range. The Panthers eventually lost, 20-17, in the NFC South showdown. A lot of teams would go for a QB sneak on fourth-and-inches in enemy territory. But the Panthers have yet to try that during Young’s three-year career in Carolina. According to Canales, the decision to not use Young on QB sneaks is about physics. “He goes about 190 pounds,” Canales said with a shoulder shrug. “And when you have a 220, 230-pound quarterback leaning on a center, that’s an advantage. When you’re not putting a bunch of force that way, I don’t see that as an advantage.” “The other part is I like to leverage off of some of the formations that we use to throw shots down the field,” Canales added. “You get in a third-and-inches, and you’re in dive or belly type of plays, it allows you to try to throw a keeper or throw a play-action (passes), and we’ve had some success over the course of the last two seasons, finding explosives in short-yardage at a higher rate than most teams who are going to sneak it.” The logic behind not using Young — officially listed as 5-foot-10 and 204 pounds — in a pile is sound, if not obvious. But the lack of a sneak play also highlights a dearth of trusty baseline options in the tightest of short-yardage situations. “It’s great to have a sneak,” Canales said. “It’s great when you can — man, it’s a half-yard or something — and you know you can execute it with your quarterback. It’s great to have in your back pocket. But that’s not our style. So, we just try to maximize our approach.” When it was suggested that a tight end sneak might make sense during Monday’s press conference, Canales said that he and offensive coordinator Brad Idzik are trying to find new solutions. “We’re working on stuff,” Canales said.

steelers did it last night. Rodgers just stood back about 3 yards behind the los with his hands in his handwarmer.

Definitely the loneliest. There's no one to bail you out when you're in cover 0.

You can cherry pick to support any claim you want to make going play by play. But Bryce's overall picture of production doesn't lie. He's one of the worst starting QBs in the NFL.

It's like poker, you can misplay a hand and win and you can play a hand perfectly and lose. Over the course of an entire tournament, the players who play better tend to do better. So, sometimes Bryce doesn't deserve all the credit for a win just like he sometimes doesn't deserve all the blame for a loss. Now what he DOES deserve a lot of blame for is his career 13-28 record. Turns out, he's very bad!

One of those situations can potentially be recovered from but your C allowing a guy free up the middle is the worst case scenario for an OL pass protection. There is a reason this gets discussed very frequently.

Canalas needs a gunslinger in my opinion. Someone to hand off the ball and then throw long play action passes. Bryce was never that guy. I don't think Bryce fits with Canalas schemes.

Progressive slot machine at the casino.

DB might be the hardest position to play on a football field next to QB.

I was asking why is there a Chinese guy dressed in Horns armor, and why is OP so racist..... just kidding... just kidding..

Yea i mean even the best corners get beat from time to time. Jaycee when healthy has never been able to play with a good pass rush. That's gotta be one of the top priorities next year

Well, you're defending the pick as being ok because they knew he was never going to be elite, he was just going to be whatever this is, or at least that's how I read it. And the 2 responsible, Tepper and Fittershits. Didn't mention Morgan because it's hard to say exactly how much he was involved in picking him, but if you've seen anything ive posted regarding his GM'ing, this draft looking positive is about the only good thing you'll find me saying. I think the way he's built this team is a hand grenade waiting to pull the pin. It's not sustainable, it never was, last year's draft was a draft was hot garbage and we would have done better letting a chicken pecking at random balls make our selection. I'm no Morgan fan and think the only reason he has the job is he's the only one who would actually take it.

Pretty sure any ounce of optimism we have is quickly extinguished when you get swept by a talent depleted Saints team...

Your sucking off Tepper at every chance is pretty alarming to say the least.

Even the best corners usually have one receiver that gives them trouble. I remember Bills WR Stevie Johnson used to give Darrelle Revis fits even in his prime.

Yeah, it wouldn't exactly have been Next Gen Stats back in those years. (Gen X Stats?)

I'm pretty sure any corner that is thrown on an island against a 4.3 elite speed receiver will struggle. And it's hard to say who is responsible for what when we run zone what feels like 90% of the game.

don't let this distract you from Evero calling a red zone 7 man, 0 coverage blitz against 6 blockers and failing to get pressure on Olave's TD

He may have a DK Metcalf body but he's got a Plaxico Burress brain.

Lmao at XL being a raw DK Christ I’ve seen it all now

Yeah, that's unusual. Was it a big high school? I'm definitely not a fan of how dumbed down it seems like the NCAA has become. I've always acknowledged though that a college head coach's job isn't to get his players ready for the NFL. It's to win games, and for that you gotta do what works.
