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.

DeAndre Hopkins had 9 receptions, 98 yds & 2 TDs in Week 1. 1 catch for 16 yds in first half today.

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

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
