First problem: you're looking to ESPN for accurate and engaging journalism. In this day and age, there are tons of other (read better) options. Stay locked in to Black and Blue Review, get on Twitter, hell, the Huddle keeps me pretty informed (just gotta filter out the PantherUnited diatribes).

David Newton is around the panthers organization. He has talked with all of the players. For him to mistake Luke Kuechly for Greg Olsen is not only inexcusable but a fireable offense for a journalist. My family is in this job background. Trust me, if he was covering Dallas or one of the big market teams, he would be fired.

Absolutely agree. I got nothing else.

 

Oh, yes I do. The way to challenge the ESPN's of the world: stop RT'ing, clicking, reading, watching, responding with them/him. Without viewership (or in this case clicks and readers) there's no need for him or ESPN Panthers coverage.

Everyone makes mistakes. The difference is he's paid to be accurate. Calling Luke Kuechly a TE is just dumb. It is inexcusable to mistake Greg Olsen for Kuechly. 

You aren't paid to be accurate?

All I'm saying is give the man a break. You have no idea how busy he might be and he is just trying to blast quick updates out every chance he gets. He was most likely thinking about Luke when he wrote this.

Have you never called a girl by the wrong name before? ;)

      Wild Card QB Performance Rankings

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Horn was open on the first play but Bryce was trying to get the ball to Coker. First play the Rams were in cover 1 with a robber that did a great job of taking Coker and TMac away. Pressure got to the QB late as Moton was pushed on top of Bryce and he ended up throwing it away. Horn was open early underneath. Exactly what you're looking for here and he should have thrown to Horn. Maybe could have had Coker or TMac run the dig there instead, because the robber played both their routes perfectly taking them out of the equation. Throw away.  Second play the Rams are in cover 3. Yosh gives up immediate pressure. Coker and TMac were open but Bryce was already escaping the pocket and immediately turned into a scramble drill. No WR got open after that. So had to throw the ball away. Third play the Rams were back into Cover 1 with the robber. Ball is thrown to Horn but he was held by his defender and couldn't get to the ball. Perfect pass. Perfect. DPI or defensive holding should have been called.  Fourth play the Rams are back in Cover 1 no robber this time. TMac and Coker are running deep routes again. Jimmy pops open on the dig again with his man trailing. It's the right read. Good pass. Not perfect, but plenty good enough. Horn  loses focus and drops it.  No one was really schemed open in any of those plays. The second play was the only one that TMac and Coker were open, but the immediate pressure took the QB off his spot where he had to escape the pocket. I really don't know when he could have forced it to Coker or TMac. Maybe the last play. Deep safety was shading TMac. Coker had 1 on 1 running a fly, but the CB stayed on top the entire time. Maybe a deep back shoulder attempt. But Jimmy was open for the first.

      I generally start w/ his sub par offensive production, inability to threaten the entire field like you would hope a franchise QB has the ability of in his backpocket.....and then get into his unicorn size.  how consistently below average and weak our offense has been under his direction (every season) IS the starting point of the Bryce "haters" convo.  I mean, take a Caleb Williams and a Bryce Young.  Forget draft status (despite it being identical)......they are world's apart if you just look at them as NFL only prospects.   They are basically Arnold and Danny from the movie twins.   Bryce basically is a likeable human and Caleb has all the other traits.
