Blocked FG's

The call to kick it was right. We had enough 'play not to lose'  calls in the past. However the ST play on FGs is absolutely unacceptable. 

Ron called out the very troubling issue of blocked FGs.  I'm sure it will now receive priority attention and they'll make changes.

But it's great to see improvement in all other aspects of ST.  We've won field position battles in quite a big way last week and this week.  Our returns our better, our coverage is better, and Nortmann's punting today was AMAZING.  STs are improving.  Thankfully the blocked field goals did not cost us either game.

Why was that even kicked!  Run on third down and take out the 2 minute warning, Pin them deep on a punt, and go to war...Worst play calling at the worst possible time..Straight stupid

Because NOT going for the FG with a 7 pt lead and ending the game would have been a catastrophically stupid decision....go back to playing Madden.

    • yeah, Panther PR has done the Tepper is taking a backseat PR tour before.   It wasn't true at all the first time we saw them attempt that.   All the stuff you are referencing is stuff produced and put out by the Panthers.  I'm not acting like owners aren't in the war room.   I'm just saying Tepper is a proven commodity.  He is what he is.  And his tenure with BOTH his professional sports teams tell the exact same story about him.   He is not patient.  He didn't show patience last year.  He moved on from an absurd investment 2 games into the season.....and a frankly unimaginable turnaround by Bryce that was only allowed by injury reset some things.  I'm sure a billion times Raiders or Dallas or whatever fans convinced themselves their owners turned a new leaf too.  I'm not buying that.  There just isn't anything supporting Tepper isn't Tepper IMO. 
    • Well last year the first team offense struggled against the Bills 3rd string defense. First string offense needed to convert a 4th down to score a TD.  If the starters play against backups and do what they are supposed to do, score easily, I’d say the reps are worth it. Would make me feel better. Unlike last preseason. 
    • This right here. You also don’t want your 2 nd string oline going against their starting Dline and risk injury to whoever is taking snaps
