Who do you think performed well today?

Yes, this loss sucked (just like every loss sucks).

I've had Bell's back and tolerated Shula best that I can, but even I'm done with giving them chances.

However, it isn't fair to focus only on the negatives. There were definitely some positives today.

1. Jonathan Stewart

He ran like a man possessed today. Vintage JStew as an earlier topic stated. I hate his contract and I hate how things go for him during the offseason, but I love the way he runs. Stewart fights and runs nasty. He's great after contact and has solid hands to go with it. He did a great job against a strong run D. Hats off to him.

 

2. Kawann Short

KK is my man crush on the defense. He blew up a couple of plays today and is a great complement to Star's brute force. This man's hands are so violent it's like watching Donnie Yen sometimes. Donnie Yen with a lazy eye and 300+ lbs of anger.

 

3. Kelvin Benjamin

Yea, he dropped a TD. The catch with Sherman and another player (was it Thomas?) draped all over him was a thing of beauty.

 

4. Kony Ealy

He did well when he was in. I like what I saw and hope that he continues to develop.

 

5. Josh Norman

He got lucky on the Luke Wilson drop when Wilson scrambled, but when he went over the top on that deep ball and almost got his 2nd pick of the day I beamed like a somamabitch. I've wanted this guy to "get it" since we drafted him and it was awesome to see him not lose us a game but instead keep us in it.

I noticed Boston miss a few assignments.  If you heard his name called, it was probably a bad thing.

 

I was watching the game at the stadium. I watched him and he had at least one good pass break up and a few tackles. That's all I can ask from a rookie. Ten times better than Godfrey.

Not Cam, judging from the endless threads. He didn't take this team on his back like he has to do every darn week. 

 

I say the other team performed well enough to win. They made me realize how little this team learns from the past. Can't believe the Seahawks beat this team by almost the same score as last season where both team played about the same.

 

But if there is a bright side, it was after that game last season where the Panthers went on the winning streak. Here's hoping

Benjamin is a stud and continues to deliver spectacular catches every game.  Why they didn't even throw him a ball at the end of the game is insane.  Dumb beyond belief.  Stewart looked the best he has in the past three seasons.  Defense as a whole looked better than last week.  

 

But it's all for naught because Cam looked awful.

Ben drops a TD that could have won this game because he had a highlight moment in your eyes. But some of u are all over Cam.

 

Jesus. How do u expect anyone to take u seriously.

I saw Star pushing mean bodies back. Several times he was in the backfield just as the option was read canceling out the running back.  Even after plays he was pushing Hawks back off the pile.

 

Norman, played like he wanted that job.

Cam I thought threw pretty well. After a while they just were very aware of our plays.. Cam wanted to make a difference in the first half, he was hyped as fug.

 

Charles Johnson, say what you want but he looked like he was in the area of the ball carrier as much as possible.

 

I think the hit alone is enough to say Thomas Davis should be here. Dayyyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmm son

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
