give an example of a rookie DE this season who is making an impact!

it takes time for DEs to come into their own!

two of the best rookie DEs J.Clowney and D.Lawerence have been hampered by injuries for most of the season.outside of those two it was a weak dtaft class for DEs.

Clowney is a LB but anyway he didn't impress me while he's on the field. I followed his all games when he's a Gamecock and I didn't see him being a superstar in his last year there. He regressed.

Clowney is a hybrid linebacker/DE who would rush from the edges in a dime package (3-4)variant defense there in Houston.but yeah, he would in fact be considered an outside linebacker in the NFL.

Everyone in this country is entitled to believe what they want. It doesn't necesarily make what they believe wrong, or what someone else thinks right. 1+1=2 (this is known to be a fact) (unless you refer to Cam's recent comments after his accident, but I digress)

Sam was a better collegiate player period. There is no argument to be had on that. Pull the stats. I'm not going to argue with anyone here on what they believe, because it's not very productive. Debating someone's sexuality was not the goal of my post, but some people who are bored with their lives and like stirring the pot on online message boards would love to make you believe otherwise.

 

And The Golden Calf of Bristol was a better QB in college than Tom Brady. Just because you're good in college doesn't mean you will be in the NFL. 

 

The thing I've noticed with Ealy is that he is getting closer to the QB as the season goes forward, getting more pressure it seems. It's the same thing I noticed with Hardy and CJ when they were younger. They were getting to where they needed to go, they just weren't getting there fast enough. With offseason conditioning and as the game slows down, Ealy might just be getting the sacks where he is now only getting pressures. 

 

So he is improving in that regard. Then again I could be talking out of my ass right now, but it's just something I thought I noticed as the season has gone forward.

I thought Richardson was a DT?

Not trying to sound like a dick here, I remember him playing DT last year but see him listed as a DE this year.

it was easier for him to learn their defensive scheme last year at DT (3 technique).but he is best suited to play DE and rush the passer (6.5 sacks 2014) because of his athelicism.

Ealy will come into his own over the next 2 years.

He doesn't just play for himself. How quickly some of you forget. This guy will be special. His motivation is more than you all think.

i wish Kony Ealy the best and hope that he makes me eat crow.that was tough for me to watch.

      Seahawks or Rams

      By Pantherxtreme · Posted

      Let's say we take care of business against the Bucs and/or the Falcons take care of the Saints and we lock that 4th seed for the playoffs. Who do we root for this Sunday in the NFC West matchup with Seahawks at San Francisco winner takes the NFC West division. A Seahawks win would mean we face the Rams at home or with a 49ers win we host the Seahawks again.  Which opponent would most prefer? In the earlier Rams game we won primary due to turnovers specifically Mike Jackson pick-6 in combination with a good running game with Chuba and Rico whereas we kept the Rams offense off the field and Bryce was able to connect on two big 4th down throws for touchdowns. However when the Rams offense was on the field they pretty much got whatever they wanted, Williams and Corum gashed us in the run game, and we had no answer for Devonte Adams. Granted whe were missing some pieces on defense with Horn and Moehrig. Against Seattle our defense held it's own for the most part, it was our offense and turnovers which aided in the Panthers loss.  Seattle was the most stingy, best tackling defense the Panthers have played all season, and when we turned Darnold over we didn't do much with it.  The offense had no answers for what the defense was throwing at them and apparently were caught off guard by the amount of man coverage the Seahawks played.  With all that who do you think would be the better matchup the 2nd time around? I trust Stafford far more than I do Darnold, both running games are on par with each other, of the defenses Seattle has the dominant unit.  I personally prefer Seattle again, that would mark their 3rd consecutive road game, we've just played them, so we know exactly what to expect, and I feel Caneles should be able to come up with a better scheme to counteract what the Seahawks defense was doing, and we may be able to trip Darnold up, I don't want to try and win another shootout against the Rams.

      I remember watching him at bama and thinking he throws a lot of wobbly non spiral balls that have very little velocity. Knew it would be a real problem in the NFL and it is.

      His wife makes great meatballs though. To be fair, he didn't hire himself here. He dazzled and bamboozled them with what they wanted to hear. He was going to be an innovative, program-builder, culture-installing football genius. They ate it up like those fabulous meatballs.
