So does that mean that you don't think Meeks will make the defense any better? You believe in the good year/bad year trend?

And I think Jarrett is going to have his break out year this year.

I don't believe in the trend, no.

I also have zero reason to believe Meeks will be good or bad related to Trgo ...yet.

If the Cats got a Jimmy Johnson-like dude or Monte Kiffin, guys who had great success over a long period of time, I would have more reason to believe Meeks would have a huge impact. In my mind, Meeks has a lot to prove. Monte coached very good defenses when out from under Dungy's shadow. Meeks has to do the same. And no it's not that I think Dungy was a great defensive mastermind, but he was a defensive minded coach who I am not sure wasn't most of the reason they improved on D in Indy...YET. I think Dungy was brought to Indy because Polian is a good GM in many respects and understood that to be able to spend 99% (lol it's not that much but you get the picture) of the cap on offense he had to have a D that allowed them to use players who in most cases were easy and cheap to find. Dungy's fits the bill.

JJ had a completely offensive minded HC so he was THE man.

Now with Meeks, we will get full use of the defense. Which mean the offense should get the ball more, more scoring.

As good as the defense is, Do you think the team has taken a turn to be a more dominate offensive team? I know last year that's what we became. Will we stay that way?

I know what you are saying and I will join your bandwagon. I have always believed we had the talent to be an #1 defense. Prozac is as vanilla as they come. And a Jr. High Football coach could pick his teams apart. I think Meeks is gonna get our defense clicking and our O will get the ball much more.

I like you also believe Jarrett is going to arises to the occassion and be a huge asset for Jake and the Panthers.

Go Panthers

We will never be an offensive team as long as Fox is our coach. Nothing wrong with it, it's just simply not his style. But we will have to outscore everyone as opposed to stopping them this year. People tend to push aside the fact that the Colts were so successful because of Manning, not Meeks' schemes, now that he's here.

How much credit would Jake get for a SB win if he went 3 tds and 7 ints on their SB run while the run game and D dominated and Kasay provided all the points in one of their playoff games? Close to zero. And that is precisely what Manning and the Colts did on their SB run to win it. Even last year the D was the direct reason they won some games while Manning struggled. The "Manning is god" sentiment hurts Meeks/the rep of the Colts' D as well.

IMO, we don't have an explosive O, and we have a middle of the pack D.

We do have a very good running game, but need someone to step up on the other side of Smith to reach the next level.

I never agreed with that argument. How many teams have 2 top-tier Wideouts? Arizona? New England? It's few and far between that you can get the talent of an Anquan Boldin and a Larry Fitzgerald on one team. I bet Warner would take our running duo over Breaston and Boldin in a second. Besides, Moose damn near had a thousand yards receiving himself. That's a serviceable #2 when Smitty is your 1. At least for probably this year and next, maybe 3, then Smitty's explosiveness won't be his greatest attribute anymore, and we'll need to look at future WR options.

Our O is fine IMO, it's our piss-poor pressure that I worry about on D.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By TimeTravelerTep · Posted

      Honestly, it wasn't on him last game. There are many other reasons that come before Bryce. Dave Canales is really starting to worry me. I mean there are glaring issues that can't be excused. I said back when the whole Rico/Chubba thing happened. I said right then that you cannot have a coach that handled those 4 or 5 games the way he did. I get it, most thought that he was trying to throw games, which was not wrong thinking because of how bad it was. The decisions right before half. The strict "Chubba gets this drive and Rico gets the next." It's seeming like a lot of our backups are the better talent, so he cant evaluate talent. Not calling a quarterback sneak because of size. Small quarterback have a different type of advantage, just not as good as a large quarterback, but still doable. Then he doesn't even explain why he didn't put Dalton in there (saying it would give away a quarterback sneak is...just stop). I honestly think he forgot about putting in Dalton. There are so many others that I'd have to re-watch the games to remember.  I could make a whole other post on that defensive game plan...absolutely awful. And a quick petition...see the quote above, can we please ban these weirdos and try to clean this place up. This is peak reddit right here and these losers will destroy the board. I couldn't make it though 3 pages because these morons post more than anyone else. These are the perpetual online freaking weirdos banned from getting too close to schools reddit mod types. Get these losers out of here. You got these freaks posting a ton and not answering the question OP posted ABOUT THE PANTHERS. This is supposed to be about football and this dork constantly tries to attack OP's question. Could you imagine someone in your real life group acting like this? You'd kick his butt out immediately. And you have this reddit loser trying to stop people for posting about the Panthers. Any normal person would just skip the post, but you have to remember these morons base their whole personality on their online persona. They would be banned almost everywhere else. Send him back to reddit, they will be a cancer to this place, trust me. I guarantee you he has more comments than 95% of accounts. These guys are the lowest in society so they live online. Its everything to them. You dont want that. Just read his responses. Do background check on that guy, there are younger people on this too and he probably isn't allowed to be talking to them, or be on here at all.

      Neither of them are getting in. Cam had HOF potential but was squandered by Ron, Shula, and Gettlemen.

      We have attempted several over the past two seasons. Maybe two successful?
