Cam, Allen, Heinicke, Teddy, Darnold, Baker, Walker All these QBs have had receivers who could catch 60% to 70% of their passes. It wouldn't happen to be DJs 50% reception rate, his league low 4 TD season average among #1 WRs, or his career league low 8.3 yards per target? Could never be that DJ Moore is actually the problem filling the #1 WR, Clutch receiver, playmaker role... could it? Steve Smith had a span of 5 seasons in his 30s to end his career as a Panther with an injured Delhomme, Clausen, and an immature NFL passer in Newton. That span in Smith's 30s had more production and plays made to win games and go to the playoffs than a young DJ Moore in his prime. Smith was called washed up, and DJ Moore is lauded as one of the best WRs in the NFL by some Panthers fans. Steve Smith was better in his 30s than DJ Moore ever will be in his prime. Moore needs to be demoted to a #2 WR before he is completely done in the NFL as a starter after 3 more seasons. All Steve Smith needed in his first 5 seasons as a starter at WR was a washed up journeyman and an undrafted QB from NFL Europe. Smitty would make Teddy and PJ look good. Smith won games and made the plays to put the Panthers in the SB and 2 conference championships while taking over the NFL and winning the triple crown. In case you forgot or never knew what a #1 WR should look like by his 4th year as an NFL starter check out Steve Smith in 2005 with Jake Delhomme, Keary Colbert, Kris Mangum, and Stephen Davis as his supporting cast. That 2005 offense would never have gotten to the playoffs with DJ Moore as the #1. Every year there are at least 3 or 4 WRs who come into the NFL that are better than DJ Moore. There are only 32 #1 WR spots in the NFL.

Because Brown was playing nose and responsible for both A gap controls. He bit on the counter step and left the MLB with no shot to come down into the A gap. Left the MLB open for a free angle by the LT going to the second level over top the A gaps behind Brown. Shaq crashed the 2 hole perfectly. Brown was shaded over the center to the 1 hole. He was suppose to push the center down into the 2 and hold the 1. He swims over the center on a run play into the 2 and now he is next to Shaq. He was not suppose to jump over the center to the 2. Browns responsibility were both A gaps while filling the 1 to the left of center. He made all those OL blocks easy when he decided to jump swim into the 2. Anyone can see Brown shaded to the right of the center in the 1 pre snap. Anyone can see Shaq crash the 2 to right of center. Anyone can see Brown stand straight up and jump swim to the 2 leaving the 1 open for the cut back. Easy seal for the center. This was on Brown. You don't need a LB crashing the 2 with the DT jumping behind the crashing LB. Why you won't admit how bad Brown messed his assignment up is beyond me. It's plain as day where he was shaded, where he jumped, where the RB was going and how the blocking was set up for the 1 hole on the left side of the OL. Luvu's responsibility was to scrape off Browns left side and fill behind Shaq. Brown was alerted to the LBs crashing that A gap (2 hole). Both Shaq and Luvu were stepping up to fill the 2 hole pre snap with Brown shaded to the 1 hole. Brown Fd the play.

Have you ever played this game or studied it? Check the 2. Cut back to 1. Faked the dive up the 2. Browns responsibility A gaps for the nose. Just because the 1 (A gap) is 5 miles wide from Brown and Burns screwing up the play at the LoS does not make it magically become the B gap that Burns was in with the GUARD sealing him.

I know you like to feel you are always right, but you're wrong. Video proves it. Drake baited Brown into the 2 gap and cut back in a huge 1 gap between the center and guard. Tackle blocked down on the MLB and guard kicked out Burns who got too deep. That was between Brown and Burns to the inside of the LG with the LT free release to the MLB. Drake ran all the way to the sidelines after going through the huge A gap because it was wide open. Only explaining it in detail because you may not see it on all the highlights or the 22 on repeat.

Fitt is just going to keep trading for failed 1st round picks in hopes the 1st round picks he rated highly like Darnold, Mayfield, and Henderson will prove they are worth a 1st round pick.

These 1st round picks on the Panthers are far from clutch

Can DJ be the playmaker he needs to be???

Burns and Brown imploding

Run straight at Brown. Horrible

The first round picks on offense are not doing much to prove their worth

1st down if it were not for Ickey

Ickey killed that drive with his 5 yard mental mistake

Foreman is not CMC. Stop it with those developing screens to Foreman

free sack for Burns Lamar messed up. Failed to identify the defense and blitz.

It was 3rd down with 3 WR and no DJ. That was what I pointed out... Got the 1st down with the penalty. DJ is not showing up again. Especially in the red zone. Disappointing for a 5 year receiver who is suppose to be a #1.

They took DJ Moore off the field

DJ Moore with the drop. DJ being DJ. Not showing up 3 weeks out of every 4 weeks.

The discipline on defense is much more apparent with Wilks in control Now if only McAdoo can do the same for the offense with his coaching instead of being safe and vanilla. Guess McAdoo does not trust Baker.

Defensive coaching/game planning looking much better under Wilks

Barno > YGM

Amare Barno should have been getting more playing time

Baker is playing scared. His hitch step wreaks with fear.

Baker looking uneasy in that pocket... even with 5 seconds in the pocket

Panthers run blocking OL ftw

Panthers best shot. Keep Lamar contained and take away the deep pass. Let him keep passing until he makes mental errors. Mental errors are Lamar's weakness.
