About those blocked field goals in Seattle last year...

We all remember when Kam Chancellor jumped over the offensive line twice to block Panther field goals.

Well, turns out there was a reason it was so easy, per David Newton:

Panthers coach Ron Rivera said he has had discussions with the league about the way Seattle players pulled his linemen down on two plays during the January playoff game where Chancellor was able to leap the line on field goal attempts. He believes they got the message.

Strange how this went unnoticed for so long.

The reason it's so bad, aside from the fact that it's holding and it should be 5 yards and an auto first down, is that if they don't hold the guys down kam touches either of those guys at all while jumping over them, it's a 15 yard penalty and an automatic first down.

Interesting.  Let's consult the video.

 

Jesus Christ Kam owned us in that game... I was pretty damn drunk (and pissed) watching it live and didn't realize just how dominant he was all night even outside the pick 6 and FG jumps.

Mother fuger had the game of his life against us.

That 2nd jump he clearly jumped over before they even touched our line. Even the first one was close with Bennett. What it is, is poor special teams which shows even again this year.

that kind of attitude isn't appreciated here!!!!

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at.

      Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often.

      With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
