Jonathan Stewart | Keep Pounding

The Motto | We Came, We Saw , & We Conquered 

What a statement victory by the Panthers and a momentum booster for the season. Like always the defense gave the Panthers a chance to win and the by the grace of the football gods the offense took advantage of opportunites and fought there way back to victory. Cam and Olsen sealed the game for the Panthers, but if it was not for the pounding runs by Stewart, the 80 yds scoring drives would not have been possible. Stewart ability to pass protect, catch the ball from the backfield and the aggressive running style seperates the offense from previous years (cough cough Deangelo Williams). Like Igo stated earlier the use of the power run game is whats going to seperate the Panthers from previous years, sprinkle in with zone read and TEs like Olsen &  Dickson will take this team deep in the postseason. 

I have stated in preaseason that Panthers running game will be top 5  with Stewart passing 1,000 yds and I believe this is unfolding as season progresses. We wait for Daryl Williams!

Did Stewart's knees touch down on that play?  It looked to me like he was not down.  Too late now.

I've wondered the same thing, was very close. And right after while he was standing there someone punched the ball out. I haven't watched it in slow-mo yet but we might have got very lucky there.

The 1st few games, he was dancing behind the line instead of hitting the holes that were there. Seahawks game & he looks like the power RB we remember he is. He out-beasted Lynch lol. Props to Fozzy, too, for doing a good job spelling him too. Save the dancing for after scoring!

Shula does have one of the most complex run playbooks in the league. This is recognised by multiple analysts and ex-coaches and was clear at the end of last season when the oline had a chance to play together.

To pull off these sorts of schemes, with multiple guard and tackle pulls and stacked side runs, requires a lot of timing and gelling off the oline and RBs. To me it's natural that the running game will take off later in the season as the oline and rb get used to executing the complex run book.

    • If you need someone to run your multi-billion dollar business, maaayyyybe don't hire a guy whose previous work experience includes repeated blows to the head and literal brain damage but IDK.
    • Extrapolate that with every QB for that matter. I guarantee you there's quite a bit of missed opportunities and yards left on the field for everyone. Many NFL QBs deal with WRs not putting in A+ effort, subpar o-line play and other deficiencies. The great ones are able to rise above these issues and create opportunities for plays. Guys like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes can both play in and out of structure, as well as find ways to get yards when things break down and mask mistakes by throwing guys open, creating opportunities from nothing, etc. Bryce Young has only shown he's able to make things happen when the rest of the team picks up his slack. Very rarely does he create those opportunities himself. When this is a consistent pattern year after year with Bryce where he shows up lackluster, it's a concern. This is year three and he should be elevating the team as a first overall pick this franchise traded up for.  He was far from elevating anyone against JAX. In fact, he needed others to elevate and create for him. Excuses may be fine for a rookie, but this is year three for the first overall pick. Not looking good so far.
    • I think the worst issue is coaching. Countless bad snaps, XL not getting his feet in or trying on runs plays, our centre being down field when he didn't need to be. All seem to be from poor coaching for me. I believe Canales is to soft to rip the players a new one when the fug up. Plus I honestly believe that Canales is slow getting his plays in giving Bryce less time to diagnose and adjust to the defence. Don't worry I could of head butted Bryce for that fumble and the 4th down throw aways but the other plays are explainable to me
