so how is his record of being able to adjust?

There was an interview with Tillis posted here a while ago and he broke down how NFL defenses are all built to stop the deep pass now anyways and offenses have to be built to take what they can get, which usually means 5-10 yard passes. It's almost as if these guys are professionals and know what they are talking about. 

we got addicted to the big deep pass. game is always in flux because both offenses and defenses are constantly adapting to what each other does.

Also Canales- Baker Mayfield led the league with 73 deep passes (deep = target was 20 or more yards from the LoS).

https://www.milehighreport.com/2024/3/8/24092154/2023-regular-season-passing-by-direction-and-distance#:~:text=Baker Mayfield led the league,four of 35 deep attempts.

i wonder what he did with Geno. maybe the deep ball worked worked to Baker's strengths and the offense adapted to it.

@strato from the article (in case you didn't check it out)

Quote

There is a theory, warranted or not, that an offense can't survive without the deep ball. Yet, according to NFL Next Gen Stats, of the 17,265 dropbacks taken by quarterbacks last season (playing a minimum of 200 passing snaps), a mere 1,558 were attempted for 20-plus yards. That's 9 percent of total passes. It's a stat Canales is well aware of, shaping his belief that success should not be dependent on the explosive, but rather supplemented by it.

Granted, a dink and dunk offense can only take a team so far in this league. Jimmy Garoppolo throwing only eight passes in an NFC Championship win to send the 49ers to the Super Bowl LIV is the exception, not the rule. Still, knowing you might need the big play at times must be balanced with the understanding that you don't have to live and die by it either.

"We want to be as balanced as possible," Young said. "Every play is different. We pride ourselves on being able to take what the defense gives us. We want to establish the run, put up the run, but obviously we're going to look to push the ball down the field when the operation presents itself. I think for us it's trying to create as efficient of an operation as possible."

Lot of whiny babies in here.

Will it at least be better the following year? 

No. We're the Panthers. All we do is suck.

Bring a fan is a colossal waste of time and energy.

Run while you can.

Run. Just run.

Lol y'all sure know how to make every little thing into the apocalypse.

Every tiny piece of news is an opportunity to panic.

Huh?

Honestly forgot he was on it. Hadn't done anything much during training camp had he? Wasn't exactly someone that lit it up or that you heard much about in practice.

Not a dawg.

Our roster can’t be worse than NE.  

I think it helps them to believe we're the worst team in all of football.

It think all of you are going to be let down thinking Bryce will be good. If he is then I’ll happily eat crow. 
 

however, I do think our defense will be good again this year.  Evero has those boys ready to ball out.  

just get you a bottle of A1 ready.

Ha!! You say that but it’s got the vibe of 2003 Rodney Pete and Jack during the Jacksonville first game.

Young is who he is. Goes 3-13 in the first half for 57 yards and gets benched for Dalton.  We go on to win the game.

Buccs top 10? Idk bout all that.

yeah, bucs aint a top 10. highest any of us NFCS teams should be is 15 right now.

i'm sticking with us winning this week and actually fly out of Germany with our 5th or 6th win, but only winning 2-3 after that finishing the season with about 8 wins. 

32 is where we belong....for now.

I think the Panthers have the element of surprise and game planning against us will be tough.  Quick passes to alleviate their edge pressure and I think we should run the ball a lot.  If we start that pre-snap penalty crap, game over.  I see Corbett with at least one bad snap, and I see the Panther pressure coming from inside--Brown and maybe Shaq.  I would not know how to prepare for Carolina--so maybe we get a game 1 sneak attack.

Yeah i have been thinking this as well. But the saints have a new OC as well... KLINT Kubiak (who????) But we also just have several years of Dennis Allen and there's also the David Carr element that shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. 

I think we could get a few sucker punches in this game, enough to help us pull out a win.

This may be an all time most moronic thread all things considered and holy poo that is saying something for the huddle

A little overkill on the criticism there, Mr. Perfect.

I don't do Facebook. What is it?

This game is more winnable than people think.  However, like the entire season, it largely depends on Bryce Young.  He needs to be able to make some plays.

Saints didn't bring anyone notable onto the team during the offseason.  They are old and have a bad OL, especially with Ramczyk out.  And how good will their defense be?  They are relying on a lot of older guys.  Davis is 35, Jordan is 35, Honey Badger is 32.

I'm expecting a low-scoring game.  Whoever controls the LOS best will win.  Sounds cliche but I think that will be the biggest difference in this game.  Both teams have questionable OLs, but Panthers brought in talent to upgrade there.  Saints did not.

I think their defense is a threat,  it their offense, especially the OL seems like something our D can feast on.

Watching the canales presser and I don't know if this is a usual thing, but it seems like the first couple days of practice focus on 1st and 2nd downs and Thursday is 3rd down day? Then Friday focusing on the red zone?

Is that what I'm hearing and is this something that other teams do and we have always done? I've just never heard of this.  At least I don't remember hearing about it.

This set always makes me happy

Jimmy James on guitar is just so much fun to watch. Love that guy.

Could be the start of something good.

It could be interesting to let them have moments throughout the season where play calling is handed off to someone else to give them experience and to throw off the competition.

You get used to someone's methods or play calling and think it's predictable and then someone else starts calling and they get thrown off completely because someone else is calling it.
