Kalil was 2nd team, the rest were 1st team...

Quarterback: Cam Newton, CAR ( +5.4 )

He lead the Panthers on a big comeback against the Bears, and did it with his arm as opposed to his legs. When he’s this good, the Panthers become a very difficult team to beat, while the Bears have now having gone up against our highest graded quarterback each of the past two weeks.

Tight End: Greg Olsen, CAR ( +3.6 ) Though he lost Steve Smith in the offseason, Cam Newton can still rely on tight end Greg Olsen. He looked his way nine times on Sunday, resulting in six receptions for 72 yards and a pair of scores. All that with a decent effort as a run blocker thrown in for good measure.

Linebackers: Luke Kuechly, CAR ( +5.5 ) and Thomas Davis, CAR ( +4.1 ) It’s the Carolina pairing of Kuechly and Davis starting at linebacker in our Team of the Week this week, with Kuechly the star of the show. He may have allowed nine receptions through the air, but they went for a total of just 47 yards. It was a similar story for Davis, who allowed four receptions for 20 yards, with both looking solid against the run too.

Doesn't seem to get enough snaps given the impact he makes. Only 34 snaps yesterday, second lowest of the season.

 

I don't think that's a coincidence that he played very well and had a low snap count.

 

It shows how important a d-line rotation is and also why losing Hardy and Alexander can severely damage our substitution plan.

    • Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.
    • Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy
    • Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
