Which potential starter worries you the most?

IMO, I think this may be a close running between Harper and Cason but I want to know from y'all. Also, let's try to avoid the quick one-liner OL quips.  

 

We're used to seeing Harper's mishaps over the years in NO....but Cason was a pretty concerning player for the Cardinals and they had a good defense in place last season.  I like White and Bene looks great, but RH is the one I'm iffy about the most.  He did great with Ron so that's what keeps me somewhat optimistic.    

 

I know about the OL situation but really think CB is the issue that's gonna hurt us against teams like the Saints.  Hard fact: Put Graham, Colston, Stills, and Cooks in with Brees in shotgun....what's gonna happen?  That's where I'm kinda shaky thinking about.  I honestly like our WRs, am indifferent to our OTs, but CB worries me outside of Bene and White.    

 

What say you?

The defense has been functioning with a "no-name" secondary for years now. As long as the front seven are doing their jobs, the secondary shouldn't be exposed that often.

 

I'd love to avoid the easy answer here but until further notice the most worrisome spot on the team is the offensive line, specifically the left tackle spot. If they can't protect Cam or get any kind of running production, multiple three and outs will wear down the defense and force the Panthers to play a style they aren't equipped to play.

    • this is true.  But NFL Ss and defenses are actively taking that away and playing to take them away vs most teams.  The problem thus far in BY's career......is they are cheating and not respecting the deep game which makes the smaller/mid range game harder to pull off.  and Dallas is an anomaly game.  using those random games as well, look at this......doesn't really change the discussion/issues in Carolina.  Bryce Young took the shots this week because they were not just NFL open but college open.    Wide open dudes downfield that really were coverage busts/issues. 
    • I will simply counter all that with: you should always strive, at every turn, to avoid indoctrinating young players into a culture of not playing to win the game.  Come man, that is an egghead academic approach that ignores the human element. it looks good on paper. Maybe.  In the voice of the great  Herm Edwards: Hello! You play to win the game.  I completely understand the need but that is not the way….
