#Panthers LB Thomas Davis says team "flat out isn't playing good football."

#Panthers LB Thomas Davis said last year players swarmed and made up for mistakes. Not happening now. Honesty was refreshing.

Players are are playing reactive and not proactive. I think teams have figured out that if you can slow play our defense you can use their aggressiveness against them, and now the defense is too worried about giving up big plays to play downhill. They just need to get it out of their system.

So the intensity is missing. That's what happens when you let certain players walk in FA

At least TD is being honest. Now, if we could only ask him who the missing piece is

Not a missing piece. TD played much better last year than this year.

Luke too.

Star, CJ, etc too.

Only two players IMO that look better or at least on par from last are Short and Klein.

Hardy didn't cause this....this is the same D we saw late in the Tampa game. McCown being so bad early on made people think this D was dominant and they completely overlooked what D was on the field late against Tampa

Mitchell and DeCoud would be a lot better than Harper, DeCoud

Cam Newton & DeCoud is a lot better than Derek Anderson & DeCoud.

Ya'll need to stop acting like money just flows freely in the NFL. Pitt gave Mitchell $25m guaranteed. And he's playing like a complete bum, just like when he was in Oak. He's not good.

He played well in our system, a lot of players are good system players and Mitchell happens to be one. On top of that, he was a good inspirational player. He isn't great, but I think he is what's lacking on this team.

Better than Roman fuging Harper he is an ex Saint and ex Tide player both teams I hate and he sucks, not good. Mitchell got overpaid but they should have figured out a way to keep him here and if he played like he did last year this year with us 5 Mill  a year would be fine with the way he played.

Ah yes, the age old Pittsburgh gave him 25 million argument!

Riddle me this batman, does he even get offered 25 million if we lock him up during the season????? If the FO would have extended his contract in season, LIKE THEY SHOULD HAVE, then Mitchell would still be here! He would have never even been able to test FA and he would have stayed. He loved this team!

We couldn't afford to keep him for sure.  That being said, what he brought to Carolina was physicality, speed, and aggression.  3 things we are severely lacking right now in the secondary.

How do you know the team didn't approach Mitchell during the season?

He came here on a one-year deal to prove that he was worth a big contract. I doubt he was going to extend mid-season on cheaper terms when the sole reason he took a one year deal was to land himself a big payday.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Valid, and throw in that what Wilson and Smith did is not out of the ordinary for a WCO

      The season is over, and we're going to get clowned on by Mayfield and Darnold before it's over.

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Darnold was pretty bad until last year.  He implodes mentally, its just what he does.  To this day I dont have a problem with letting him walk.   Baker is a bit different.  He was an ass in Cleveland and they couldnt deal with his poo, but he at least had talent and went to the playoffs.  So you know he could play at least.  There were different stories coming out from the time he got here, competing with Sam and then the practice team release fiasco.  Both good and bad.  Some say he was a good teammate others say he bitched behind the scenes.   From what it appears his wife has worked with him and he calmed down and his play has reflected that.  Tampa loves him.  So if we were going to keep one it probably should have been him but man he was really bad for us.  But to his defense he didnt get the first team reps until late into camp.     In obvious hindsight we should have signed Baker cheap, drafted a dude and let the cards play out, but you know the rest of the story and now we are going to have to watch bryce for 2 more years

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Again his one year calling plays happened to be Baker's lowest YPA not counting his split year hear.  That tells me he was less aggressive with a QB who likes to be aggressive.  We have that and almost 2 full years of Bryce Ball here in Carolina.  He will take some deeps shots as most offenses have to in order to keep the defense honest.  Quick passes and hopeful YAC.  I'll give you one guess to which year Rachaad White had the most receptions as TB's RB?  Remember the first thing he wanted to do here is focus on how quickly he wanted to get the ball out.  That's part of his recipe to help QBs and help his OL.  Run the ball, quick passes to hopefully players in space, sprinkle in a little PA.   So yeah you can look at some coaches he learned under and speculate, but I am telling you what he literally is doing and has done as a play caller.  Offenses that were and are 100% his baby.
