Our defense is made up of Luke, TD, and 9 carnies

In retrospect, letting most of the secondary go in the offseason is affecting the team WAY more than the receivers. I wouldn't grade a single member of our secondary as even average in coverage skills. 

 

The defensive line has pretty much fallen apart without Hardy. The bloom is completely off the rose of Mario Addison and I saw our DTs constantly out of position and taking wrong angles. And don't forget about AJ Klein: There was a play where Bernard had the ball running near Klein today and he was so slow that Kuechly managed to come from the opposite side of the field to make the play before Klein had a chance to react.

 

It's disturbing and sad, but when we don't make the playoffs or lose once we do, it will almost certainly be the fault of the defense. What a shitshow.

Secondary isn't worse than last year. Lack of pass rush just exposes them. The secondary is equally mediocre.

 

DeCoud is definitely a worse "last line of defense" guy than Mitchell was, though arguably better cover skills.  Maybe a wash, but with the front seven being gashed like they are this weakness is really being exposed.

Keek is elite

Davis is very good

KK is very good

Star is good

CJ is either Great or bad

Horton/Addison are both average

Cason is mediocre in coverage but is a ball hawk who forces turnovers

Klein and Blackburn are both okay

Harper/DeCoud/White are all inconsistent

Godfrey sucks

We need Hardy back but getting Bene/Norman back alone would be a start

TD completely whiffed on the Bernard TD. He looked like a kid in pop warner that only gets to play because his parents sponsor the team.

Keek is elite

Davis is very good

KK is  good

Star is AVERAGE

CJ is either DECENT or bad

Horton/Addison are both BELOW AVERAGE

Cason is mediocre in coverage but is a ball hawk who forces turnovers

Klein and Blackburn are both CHEAP PLACEHOLDERS

Harper/DeCoud/White are all OLD/SLOW/PRACTICE SQUAD

Godfrey STILL HASN'T RECOVERED FROM ACHILLES INJURY

We need Hardy back but getting Bene/Norman back alone would be a start

 

Thanks for the template.

    • I think that looked much better on Bryce's part than tmacs.  He made a really good adjustment to the ball but his separation is what is always going to worry me, he had absolutely none with Jackson on that play, Bryce threw him open.
    • I wouldn't be mad at it. I often call Luke "the best ILB that I've ever seen," and I've watched the game in earnest since I was nine, but I think there is more going on with Steve Smith---meaning it's political---than perhaps should be. I understand that he was not the nicest person---an asshole at times basically. People don't or didn't like him. That being said, he's still 8th all time in receiving yards, ahead of guys who have their gold jackets:   * Marvin Harrison (9th)  * Andre Johnson (11th)  * James Lofton (12th)  * Cris Carter (13th)   At some point, Smitty has to be inducted solely based upon the numbers (not to mention producing big results at his stature in a big man's game). I can see the snub early due to his temperament, but I hope it doesn't become a "thing," and I don't think Panthers fans, or NFL fans in general, should stay silent about it if it does.
    • for those who can't see the Twitter post, I'm assuming this post is about the list published in February with Greg and TD?    https://sports.yahoo.com/10-great-nfl-players-eligible-035121461.html
