As opposed to last year, it seems as if our strength was mainly from Mitchell and our safeties, they were not necessarily better but seemed to stay in position and be aggressive on the run. After watching them tonight made me wonder about the strong safety position, though Decoud looks to atleast keep the play in front at free idk how I feel about Lester when it comes to pass Coverage. He seems to run himself out of his coverage leaving huge gaps down the seems or the sidelines. And apparently Harper isn't much better in pass coverage, this position just concerns me at the moment and I

Almost feel like that is the kink in our ds shiny

Armor. I feel so much better at the corner position after watching Cason and white get after it with nice intensity but how much worse

Off are we than last year because of that one weak link in our D?

Overall I still feel really

Good about the D jus wondering what you all are thinkin about the position....keep it slim on the

Gloom and doom tho this thread may not

Look like I'm an optimist when it comes this team!!!!

Go

Panthers!!!!!!

The Panthers were poor in pass coverage last year. We gave up lots of wide open completions last year too. But eventually our pass rush gets home and we get the turnover on an errant throw. If not the turnover we put them in 3 and long, give them the underneath and make the tackle. Mike Mitchell was not that great in coverage but he was good enough with our pass rush.

      Anyone else think we’re getting too hyped

      Yes. It's fluff time anyways but it's getting a bit ridiculous. I don't believe this mix has ever worked for the Panthers before. Break .500 and then start the hype.

      While I have a chance to be overly excited I'll take that opportunity. The team will determine what happens with that. It's been a while since we've had much to be excited about, I'd say let's just embrace it and see how it unfolds.

      Knowns: top 10 o line 2 proven, quality RBs 2 proven, WRs who get open and catch everything. 2 others who show a lot of ‘potential’ A QB who improved greatly in the last few games of the season, topped off by putting up a 40 burger win in OT in this franchise’s kryptonite house. What will transpire this season is yet to be seen.  defense has far less proven. 2  very good CBs, a stud DT (coming off a major injury) and the rest is, again, ‘potential.’ A DC that is essentially starting the season on the hot seat.  This is not 2003, but it could be good. 2003 was the most stacked roster from top to bottom that this team has ever had. This squad finished on a big upswing, yes, but we’ll see.  I think it all comes down to how spiked your hopium is. The running game is where it is for the team. This is not a defense that will win 3 points games. Just not. To win, this team will have to dominate TOP and come up with 2+ more 3rd down stops each game. Again, do-able and should be good for at least a 7 point differential in our favor, ‘hopefully.’  I will say that it is nice seeing talent that actually belongs in the NFL on our roster.
