Death by a thousand cuts..DE position on the ropes

Hamstring problems can be an injury that lingers all season and Johnson has a problem. Don't be suprised if this drags on all season long. Alexander goes down and is done. Don't know what to expect out of Ealy this year ( one step foward and three steps back it seems). Addison is situational and just not stout enough to be a starter.  Horton should be a back up at best. The only player that is big and bad enough to command an offense to take notice of is K.K. With the QB's coming up very soon, no pass rush equals shredded defense. What can and will they do if Johnson is out. Designed blitzes can only do so much and a skilled QB will kill those more times then not. Opinions please on what the next move is to fill this void.

I thought Ealy was garbage today and I'm sure his PFF grade will show it again. He didn't even try on that last Saints TD. 

Our d-line is in big trouble, IMO. Even though we won and are 3-0 im not drinking the "oh we won so stfu and enjoy the win and don't be negative" coolaid. We'll probably be fine next week against the Bucs, but that Packers game will be brutal.

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
