Charles Johnson: trying hard to improve his performance

The man knows he isn't making the impact that is expected of him.According to the buzz around practice is that he is putting in extra time trying to get it back. The absence of Hardy has hurt, but Charles isn't pinning his lack of production on that. Hasn't said his hamstring is a factor either. He has been a team player and no problems off the field. Research says he really hasn't been heavily double teamed either, just isn't getting to the QB.Zero sacks in three games.He is getting some pressures, but not closing the deal.Will big Frank's return game 5 help the situation, who knows.If it wasn't for Marios 3.5 sacks and the DT's getting sacks up the gut, they would be in deep trouble.If this doesn't improve, the team cannot justify paying that kind of salary next year.So Hardy is in limbo and probably gone and C.J possibly losing his mojo..a strength may soon be a weakness.Things change quickly in the NFL.

do you have a link for this or did you hear this lockerroom buzz with your own ears?

@randywattson: I will train harder, I will work harder, and I will focus harder. I will pick my game up! I will earn everything that given to me #Panthers

@DNewtonespn: Rivera says Charles Johnson is the bell cow now and players looking for him to make the play. #Panthers

All I could find on this. Really wish OP would start including links or something with his threads

He also said this after the Detroit game...

@randywattson: I'll be the first to say great win. And I'll be the first person to say I gotta pick my game up big time #PantherPride #OntoTheNextOne

We desperately need him to step up, especially with Hardy out. But without Hardy it has to be expected Johnson's game takes a hit.

We need him to be impactful asap. Not just in the passing game but the run game as well. He's getting worked in the run game.

 

If he plays mostly as the RE on Sunday, he'll be going up against a good RT in Ricky Wagner.  A good game against him would be a real confidence booster.

      Some Tet appreciation

      He has a lot to work on for sure but he has been a huge boost to the offense. It's nice to finally have an elite WR.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By strato · Posted

      We have been on that roller coaster ride already. He needs to have streaks far longer than a couple of good games.  People raved about the Green Bay game in 2023. Which was mostly a good 2nd half and hot 4th quarter.  Ask me what happened the next four games, if you don’t remember. or just go look them up. There isn’t much to see.  The end of last year had some good things and one excellent outing, and look up what followed that, which you won’t have to but he came out this year looking like week 1 2023.  Now he is on a game and a half streak, against a bad Miami team and lowest rated defense in the league - at home.  This is the reality in the big picture. He needs to break his pattern, in a positive way.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This "noodle arm" characterization just baffles me. There's way more involved in a successful downfield passing attack than simple air yards. Let's take two stat-lines for throws of 40+ air yards (no YAC) from the last 3 seasons: 5/29 (17%) for 3 TDs and 2 INTs 1/9 (11%) for 1 TD So with three times the number of attempts, you net +6% completion percentage, the same TD rate, and 2 arm punt INTs to boot. The first player is Mahomes, the second is Bryce. Clearly Bryce attempts these throws at a much lower rate, but his success rate is quite similar to one of the most talented downfield throwers of all time. The takeaway isn't that Bryce is Mahomes-lite (if he was his usage rate for these would be much higher) but that these throws by their very nature are extremely difficult, very scheme-specific, and even an elite thrower can have wildly differing success rates season by season. And before we get into the complaints of cherry-picking, this is far more substantial information than the various insinuations that Bryce struggles to even get the ball 20 yards downfield, much less 40+. And the wildest part of this is that every time Mahomes threw a bomb over the last 3 season, 83% of the time the end result was failure, yet many Chiefs fans complain that he isn't taking even more shots downfield.
