That's Bell not making a block on a 215lb safety. If Bell would have leveled him and drove him toward the sidelines, DWill wouldn't have to cut back inside and could have followed Silatolu all the way around the defense.

 

There's plenty of positive plays I've seen watching Bell in this game, but it's things like this that fans can understandably dislike about him. I'm rooting for him to succeed because it helps the team, but people have the right to be skeptical.

 

 

This was not a good look for Bell but again I feel like this is mental. Bell appears to give the safety the inside almost as if he expect Deangelo to take it out wide. When Dlo cuts inside Bell is screwed. His body is not in position to make that block. So did Bell make a bad decision or did Dlo? You can clearly see Silatolu running wide with bell while Deangelo gets tackled cutting in. To me this is Deangelo free lancing.

 

Coach Ron told the media if he could take them in the film room and see who was truly at fault in these situations, they would have a different perspective on Bell. 

 

And again in the earlier .gif, Bell is clearly blocking the outside rush, was he expecting the chip inside? Or did Deangelo compromise his leverage by coming in next to him? Perhaps his plan was to throw him outside.

 

Maybe Bell could have done better in both these instances but to me this is bad teamwork and communication.

      I hope you understand that this Anti Bryce thing as you call it is really a pro Panthers thing. I think I can safely use we. We want the best for the Panthers.  As far as this other post saying ‘Anti’ Bryce people do misinformation.. you mean like going all in on “Renfro should have caught” that poorly thrown ball? I guess it was week 1. And calling it a drop. Comical btw.  I wonder, did you call that out or let it slide because it aligned with your agenda?

      These are great posts with the comparisons and the numbers.   I haven’t lookyat Smity’s numbers since probably the first time he was on the ballot.  But if you watched every week you know what he is. Whatever his yardage or targets numbers were.  He was fuging dominant. I have watched since the AFL days and seen who there is to see. There are many great WRs over the years. GREAT WRs. Smitty is up there in the game of football.

      Smith is clear cut HOF if you judge what he did by reception. Fitzgerald was a stat padder.    The most Steve Smith was ever targeted in his career was in 2005 (150 targets). The same year he wins the triple crown.    Larry Fitzgerald was targeted more than 150 times over 9 separate seasons. Not once eclipsing 1500 yards in a season.    The over glazing of Larry Fitzgerald going around is way over blown. ARZ was top 10 in passing attempts nearly his entire prime. Steve Smith and Andre Johnson had it far worse and would have surpassed his #s in the same situation.
