quick summary before defense, talks briefly about Morgan’s comment about needing an explosive player not sure with Canales play calling and poor blocking particularly on screens it would matter First part of Film review looks at issues with Evero’s defense issues with Panthers defenses. Rams exposed every one Second part of film next week film look deeper at Evero’s defense Predictability of panthers defense in cover 3 and cover 6 cover 3 look left Pua open Easy to expose and attack panthers cover 3 So easy that Stafford knew immediately where to go nick scott, a safety, left on an island with WRs Player is an issue 2 high safety exposing cover 3 coverage in in seam cover 6 issues also Stafford attacking Jaycee Horn one on one, could easily have drawn flags on double moves …safety over top not there for horn to be able to play a better technique conclusion Safety is needed or Evero’s scheme for safety play is weak and teams know it

Inevitably, one of these guys will get upgraded and then it drops the grade but I’d take this every year. Now do one with DROY. The And a couple of good OL.

Dan Morgan recognizes that we need speed. https://x.com/avl_mike/status/2012199507820232975?s=46&t=LFCU3YJC5DIKyaUU92bPAQ

The kool-aid is poison!

It's to do with the defenses id say. The explosive RBs are key these days while teams are playing less in the box

i have noticed overall it seems yards are down not so much overall average but i would bet the top 10 qbs average is way lower than the top 10 qbs average in prior years. not sire if just qb quality is worse bc of all the injuries and father time or if the kick off change changed it.

Corbett is most valuable provided Mays leaves or we make a mistake and commit a large sum of future money to him as a starter. If we can finally get a starting caliber center on the roster, Mays will immediately become the top backup to resign. Nijman is a good backup. We should attempt to get him back at a league minimum or similar deal. Outside that, we have to be serious about a LT signing or draft pick. We have no player on the roster that is capable of average or better LT play.

Morgan was also responsible for one of the worst drafts in franchise history with that 2024 draft. I think it's some of both. We have to hope he has another 2025 caliber offseason in 2026.

I wasn’t a believer until I saw how the rookie class contributed this year so give Morgan credit, he did very well with the roster in 2025. He drafted the likely offensive rookie of the year. He also made shrewd moves like trading for Mike Jackson last year too. If Morgan has another draft like 2025, the Panthers will no doubt be in the mix for the playoffs again. From the sound of it they’re targeting pass rushers so that might make the defense better by default if he hits there. Maybe the addition of Tillis helped too, but this was the first draft I wasn’t left thinking a 12 year old playing madden could do a better job.

He really opens things up similar to Necas

I think it's more empty than some will admit. But I also attribute some of that to Evero's piss poor talent evaluation and personnel management. I am not a believer in Morgan but Fitterer is a bar that hopefully will never be lowered.

Biggest thing Bryce needs to do is stop laying these dud games. There’s obviously certain styles of defense and personnel that make it hard for him to survey the field given his lack of height and arm strength. But consistency is the biggest thing we haven’t seen from Bryce. It seemed like every other game was a dud for him in 2025. Just getting him to play decent in every game would be a major improvement

Dan Morgan being a defensive guy can probably scout better defensive players than in years past. Scourton and Princely seem like they’ll develop with the team. The roster was just so destitute after the Fitterer worst GM in the history of the NFL years they it will take awhile for the cupboard to be fully stocked. It’s not empty like it felt a couple years ago at least.

I was shocked Rob Chudzinski got a head coaching job, Evero has been knocking on the door of becoming a head coach for a few seasons

Let’s hire Mike Tomlin as DC then and poo he can replace Canales

I agree here in principal. That’s what made John Harbaugh such a good coach over the years and why he has so many of his assistants that became head coaches. But at the same time if you hired a guy specially to develop the offense and call plays then taking that away from him and adding someone else to do that would be a potentially relationship destroying decision.

Imagine if Mike McDaniels followed Harbaugh to the Giants as OC.

Yea this wasn’t even a critical signing until the icky injury now it’s he’s a must sign player. Make it a 2 year contract, Icky will need a reliable backup coming back from a serious knee injury in 2027

Who really cares about yards all QBs seem to have lower yards at the moment. What I want to see is 3rd downs being converted, big plays being converted and dumb mistakes cut down

They both have to overcome terrible QB's, though. I agree on the elite power of both defenses but the suckage of those QB's is something that has to be accounted for.

Im a Bryce supporter and ive seen him get better every year but this is his last year to try get the inconsistentcy out of his game. If he plays like hed did in the Playoffs week in week out hes a franchise QB to me. And all that lines up with a strong QB class on paper in next years draft. So next offseason we're either gonna extend a constantly good Bryce of be in on a rookie QB

Yet as the FO has failed him somehow he has been one of the worst personnel evaluators on the defensive side of the ball. Both things are true. The FO has set him up for failure but he is one of the worst talent evaluators in the organization and proves it every offseason. Again, I don't think any serious NFL person would consider HC interviews as a serious measure of coaching prowess.

Yup and Chambliss is now suing for a 6th year after getting denied. Apparently Ole Miss is paying him $6M to play another year. He's not getting that in the NFL, not a 3rd round rookie contract. No wonder he's adamant about going back. Usually the NCAA backs down in such instances. Duke's Mensah entered the portal at the last moment, one source says Miami is the likely target. The ONLY underclassmen in this entire QB class now are Mendoza and Simpson, both RJRs.

I gotta go Mays but I think he gets lured elsewhere. Yoshi is the one to keep IMO
