Recommended Posts

I won't be posting any statistical analysis tonight, but I certainly enjoyed having one thread last week as a place to gather key stats & analysis.  So, here's a thread for just that.

Any key stats, any nice game analysis, please post it here.

I'll have some game analysis and stats tomorrow evening.

Rapid Reactions: Panthers 2-0 After Toppling Texans

http://blackandbluereview.com/panthers-texans-week-2-2015-rapid-reactions/

Houston’s Horrid Ground Game

It’s hard to win in the NFL without a run game, and the Texans don’t have one without injured back Arian Foster. They gained just 24 yards on 11 carries in the first half and just 37 more in the second. It’s the eighth time in their last nine regular-season games that the Panthers have held an opponent below 100 rushing yards. It was the first time they’ve done it despite being without LB Luke Kuechly and DT Star Lotulelei.

Joe Person has some instant analysis.  Wow, 29 incompletions for Mallett:

Defense taking care of bad quarterbacks

The Panthers have yet to face a good passer. They will next week when Drew Brees comes to town.

But the defense did its part against Blake Bortles and Ryan Mallett, who made his third career start Sunday.

Mallett had 29 incompletions, but made things interesting late.

Playing in place of Luke Kuechly, Klein had a key interception. The Panthers had taken Klein out in a lot of passing situations, but he was on the field and made a nice drop in coverage to pick off Mallett.

Charles Johnson’s pressure on Mallett forced an intentional grounding on the Texans’ final drive.

Official JJ Watt stats from first half: 4 tackles, 1 QB hurry, 1 pass defensed. Not bad, considering.

    • I knew very little about this player before we drafted him. When I read scouting reports about him I understood the pick and thought it made sense as a late round receiver with speed and special teams ability but after watching him more closely and now adding his interviews into the equation I'm actually really excited about him. I know it's just RMC but I noticed him running his routes with this extra step that really stood out to me during the general video posted earlier without realizing who it was doing that.  His speed in his first cut is just on another level and it's visible. When I saw it I was **** whoa, who was that?! Then I saw Horn JR. and my first thought was oh it's him. I think it's very possible that he was under appreciated going into the draft due to his height and stats because he played at Colorado where the attention was on 2 other players but I think this dude's ceiling is way higher than most think it is. Especially after watching his interview. He looks hungry. I may have found my fav rook for this year's pre-season. I like pulling for underdogs anyway and as someone who played on the small side myself it just gives me more reason to cheer for him. The competition at WR looks like it's going to be fierce this season. I honestly can remember any preseason where I looked at out wr group and got past 3 players who I thought were interesting but this season I'm interested in at least 5 who have my attention going into the season. 
    • Wilson should be getting called for at least 3 penalties a night even in the post season. How does he not lead the NHL in PM???
