Why are there so many threads on Cam and the offense when our Defense is playing so bad?

[WOW!!]

BEcause the O has always been lackluster.

And because the D outside of two games have been dominant.

Benefit of doubt ring a bell?

There is no benefit of the doubt after giving up a 1,000 yards of offense and 60+ points in 2 games.

We put most of our resources into the defense not the offense.

We are suppose to be a defensive team not a offensive power house.

There is no excuse for the defense to be this bad.

Because keuchly is the MLB. If they admit the defense is faltering that would also mean he's faltering. This is the Carolina Keuchly, remember!

Exactly, our defense is looking like a HUGE problem and we focused on it so much that it shouldn't be struggling like this. 

[mcdougal]

I totally agree with you. But as I said, most of the problem isn't necessarily the defense. The offense is just as bad right now.

 

Absolutely. Who knows, maybe the defense is really not that bad. Maybe the ST and our offense is making them look worse than they really are.

 

But that is what you HAVE to expect when you ignore that side of the ball and pour all your heart into that side of the ball.

 

Denver's defense, it could be argued, was their problem in the Superbowl. HOWEVER, who cares?

 

Denver's offense (to even an lesser extent than the Panther's defense) is where a vast majority of the resources are dumped into.

 

Denver shall go nowhere (similar to the Panthers) if their offense doesn't produce.

 

Can't allocate that much of your draft and cap space to Denver's offense, and then complain about their defense.

[Snake]

My question is this, how can a defence take chances when its expected to keep the other team under 14 points in a pass dominate league. We are a bend but don't break defense because of our offence. Its the John Fox panthers all over again.

Maybe in your world, but in real world yes they get the benefit of doubt. 

 

Now if it happens another 2 weeks in a row, well we might be on to something. 

 

Until then, the offense has been sucking since Chud left. They will get the brunt of the criticism. 

[footballisasport]

or maybe because the qb position is the most scrutinized position in all of sports.

 

That is such a myth. It has always depended on who is the QB.

 

Still waiting for Luck to be scrutinized the way Cam has. They may throw a bucket of water on Luck every now and then but they make sure too dry him off with compliments. When it comes to Cam, they never stop opening up the hose on him. Then tell him he deserves it because it will make him better. These QBS in the NFL are not scrutinized equally. The blacks will always be seen as good for being black but they will NEVER be placed in the same category with the Peyton's, Brady's and  manufactured Luck's.

 

Also, it seems when it comes to you Panthers fans, some of u simply like echoing everything u hear and read from the media. U also seem to enjoy fixing what isn't always broken because it's easy. But is alway quick to either ignore or make excuses for what has been broken on this team for years.

The only reason why u feel that way is because your defense was so bad while Chud was the coach. This team offense was one person, Smitty. Everyone else didn't seem to know their role. 

[WOW!!]

Defense has had more resources and is the focal point of the team. They get no pass from me with there play the past 2 games.

Bad O-line?

Answer- get the ball out earlier....adjust.

Bad Defense?

Answer- Sooooo......who is the top prospect coming out of college at safety/DE?

Lol! Nothing is being done to fix what we can fix and Cam is getting killed. That would be my answer to your question.

[footballisasport]

Where was this thread when the offense was racking up points and hoping the praying that the defense didn't squander it?

 

It comes to me as if u Panthers fans really don't know where ur team sit in this league. Every team needs to build both sides of the ball. Even if onside is a bit more dominant than the other. Of course everyone is going to say defense wins games because they are the ones who prevent the opposing team from scoring But the offense role is just as important because them scoring take some of the pressure off of their defense.

 

The Raven, Pitts, Giants, and Packers, are the teams known for their defense. But truth be told, if they don't build up a solid offense, the defense for those teams are wasting energy. Ask the Giants, Pitts, Ravens and Packers about that. They were all eliminated or didn't get very far during the Play-offs last season and that was due to the different offensive issues that plagued the teams.

 

The best team in a league is a somewhat equally balanced team and that team right now is the Seahawks. They have pretty good offense and a pretty good defense. That is why they won the SB.

[hdevonxz]

Gotta score more than 10 points

[WOW!!]

Gotta score more than 10 points

Oline has to block better, RB'S have to get healthy and Special Teams has to stop the dumb penalties.

[Obeg]

Ok - the bright side - no one is talking about Sean McDermott leaving for a HC position like they have been since end of last year into game 3 of this year!
