I've begun to think it's something of a common trait to 'gunslinger' types.  Delhomme was known for that too.  It's a mechanics thing.

 

You do what you can to coach stuff like that, but sometimes the smarter thing to do is adjust your roster.

 

Hence, Kelvin Benjamin and a receiving corps with only two guys under six feet (5'10 and 5'11)

I just love how all of the resident experts always say he is throwing off his back foot. If it were that simple don't you think he would have corrected it by now?

Exactly. And for those saying bum ankle blah blah did u not watch panther games last season? He always had balls sailing on him.

Olsen is 6'5 I think and he missed him a couple of times last season. I think I remember one in the playoff game. Heck he even did that today in practice. I doubt it's all about height.

There are quarterbacks who go their entire careers with mechanical issues (Kerry Collins, for example) so no it's not such an easy thing to correct.

 

And the reality is that all the coaching in the world can be completely nullified by sticking a quarterback behind a bad offensive line.  A quarterback who's constantly having to run for his life tends to be one who will have bad habits reinforced rather than fixed.

 

They'll continue coaching his mechanics and, hopefully, we'll see better OL play this season.  But in the meantime, tall long-armed receivers are a pretty good adjustment.

      If they lose the last three......

      By frankw · Posted

      I presented that scenario because this is a home game and we seemed to have improved in some capacity in that area as of recently. The problem with the possibility of sweeping the Bucs is this team has had a habit of quickly falling victim to momentum shifts. The Bucs are coming off a bitter loss the same as the Panthers but the Bucs have a much better proven track record this time of year and they have performed when the pressure is on unlike our Panthers. We have a shot against the Seahawks here in BOA but that is a matchup that could quickly get out of hand because they are a well coached team and that goes back to the momentum shifts I mentioned. I just don't see this team beating the Bucs in their stadium to close the season. Tall order to say the least.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      I’d give it another year for Sanders and Evans, I don’t much care what you do with Tremble’s spot. Let him have another year or maybe replace him. Haven’t looked at his contract so that may be the determining factor.

      Following the crazy up down pattern we finish 9-8 with an improbable sweep of TB, and lay an egg in the home playoff game.  I don’t know if I can sign on to sweeping TB but I suppose it’s possible, they aren’t really that good this year.    ps I can buy beating TB Sunday and losing to Seattle.  Then it just gets to can you fluke one game. Any given Sunday. So we’ll see.
