The Chiefs are primarily a 4-3 scheme under Spagnuolo, but they run a decent amount of 3 man front nickel formations. I'm definitely not sure of how we're gonna use him in Evero's scheme but I predict that if we try to play him at NT he's gonna get bulldozed all over the field and it won't be his fault. It would just be an awful misusage of him.

Better than trying to make him a pass rusher that he's not. Those guys who can occupy two blockers and not give up ground are hard to find.

He's plenty big enough. We just seem determined to try to make him a pass rusher when that's the weakest part of his game. Just let the guy clog the middle, whether it's in a 4-3 or a 3-4. He's similar to an in shape Kris Jenkins in that most of his pass rush success comes from just physically mauling the OL in front of him. It's never going to be the crux of his game.

If Evero still fails to adapt his scheme and the D is trash again there's gonna be serious questions about why the guy was retained in the first place. I mean, yeah we had a lot of injury issues last year on a unit that wasn't that good on paper already but when you field a literally historically terrible unit you're usually gone. That's just the way it works.
-
Only the edge rushers. We're stocking up on 3-4 edge rushers. So yeah, we're building the D around one of our weakest overall units. Typical Panthers brilliance. LOL

I'll just lock this one and pin the other one.

IMO, we have a guy tailor made to play 3-4 NT on the roster in Derrick Brown but since we paid him a gazillion dollars and drafted him in the top 10 we feel forced to try to play him in roles where he'll get sacks instead of just letting him focus on clogging the middle. He's not a sack artist. He's never going to be a sack artist. And honestly, that's fine. Just let him clog the middle.

Post- Training Camp 53-Man Roster Projection
LinvilleGorge replied to Seltzer's topic in Carolina Panthers
It's the QB school guy mentality. Thielen is a shitty #1 option so aaarrrrggghhhh FUUUUUUUUUG HIM!!! This dude SUCKS!!! Yeah, Thielen should no longer be a #1 option at this stage in his career. He honestly shouldn't be a starter at this point in his career. But it's not an Adam Thielen issue that we've had to ask him to do that. -
I don't get Evero's obsession with lighter, quicker nose tackles. It's hard enough to find a giant that can consistently hold up to double teams. That's already a bit of a unicorn. It's the biggest hurdle to fielding a good 3-4 DL IMO. But now you want to find a lighter, quicker guy who can do it? Yeah, okay... good luck with THAT. Now you're talking about the unicorn of all DL unicorns.
