BULLSHIT! Quit making excuses....he got trucked, I said it last night, and I'll say it till the day I die.

I don't care if he just came out of the little boy's room, pulling his drawers up.....he got trucked. You play football, I don't wanna hear this "he wasn't set" crap!!!

Bradshaw was 20 yards away when the play began....so if he couldn't prepare by then......I mean really...come on. Was off balance, wasn't ready????

Neither was I then if that's the case.

:ihih:

Godfrey looked to be more concerned with stripping the ball inside the 10 yard line than trying to make a tackle. The Giants had an excellent play call and execution against the front seven on that play, they all got whooped before it made it into the secondary. It was a cross block/trap that took out the OLB responsible for that gap.

Meeks has been preaching his ball stripping. It didn't seem to work too well in the game, and I think he has some re-teaching to do about going for the tackle first when a play nears the goal line. If you watch the replay, Godfrey goes for a half strip/half tackle, Gamble is coming off a block trying to make a diving tackle and gets trucked and then Harris is coming up with body language to go for another strip at the 2 yard line. Once Gamble misses, you can see Harris go into "pure tackle" mode, but it is too late and he doesn't even touch him until he's in the end zone. If he's teaching them to strip instead of tackle at the two yard line it's inexcusable in my book, but I think it's just a case of players learning a new system. Still, I think it would be understood that the priority should shift to stopping the runner first as a player approaches the end zone.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
