Amini......playing better

I have busted his balls quite often, but he has done a decent job filling in for the beast. The pass rush that Cam faced this week should have been stymied by better play calling (a k.a: screens, short dump offs etc). Amini did alright and for this I give him credit. The ball busting will stop because he has performed better then expected. Credit where credit is due.

Eugene and Mick on Panthers radio were going on about Kalil raising hell with the refs cuz the Tack's D-Line was grabbing and holding him to clear the middle for those blitzes. Gotta wonder if Amini was getting the same treatment or if he was whiffing his blocks.

I'll trust Gettleman to make an appropriate offer for his skill level this off-season.

I'm not. Did we watch the same game? I saw him whiff a lot. Not to mention those blitzes were coming up the middle for a reason. Where was Turner, hurt?

These are my thoughts exactly. Amini still can't pass pro for poo. 

I will say this though. I do think he run blocks just a little bit better than Norwell.

Pass blocking is more important, IMO. LeBeau watched film on this flop, and drew up stunts and blitzes that came right in his face, and he failed. 5 Sacks. He needs to go, a wasted draft pick like there Division II lineman we drafted the year after him, Kugbila.

    • Here is what it said about him coming out of college: Overview A three-year starter with good feet and technique, Samac could be in consideration for a move-blocking rushing attack. He is strong at the point of attack but will have limitations against NFL power. He operates with good hand placement and nimble feet and is a demon once he’s on the move as a pulling center leading the way. He’s fluid and agile in the run game, but those traits fail to do as much for him in protection. Samac punches with inside hands but can struggle to widen his protection base in order to protect his edges. He has eventual starting talent as a run blocker but needs to add more mass and improve in pass protection to get there.
    • Through 2 games cltfc has 12 shot attempts. Opponents 23 shots on target. Attack sucks, Defense definitely sucks. Kahlina is the only reason they haven't given up 14 goals in two games. 
    • I met a few times--never liked him. I figured he might have had a bad day--but then realized that he must have a lot of bad days. Once he raised his voice at my son because my son did not understand a question when SS was signing his jersey.  I wanted the jersey to represent his encounter with a Panther great, not some small man with a bad attitude.  I told me son, "Forget it.  He was asking you what your name is (My son was about 7 and told me that he thought Smitty was going to write (my son's) name on the jersey.  He said "Dad, I thought he was supposed to write HIS name on the jersey, not mine."  I said, "He was personalizing it, writing it to you--like a birthday card."  He is now grown, and he has a steve smith Jersey that is framed and matted.  He keeps it is his closet.  I asked him, "Why not have that out on your wall?"  He said, "All I remember is an A-hole scribbled on my shirt.  I don't remember a legend or hero.  But he had a Jake Delhomme Jersey on his wall.  "Jake was great.  I will always remember that."  (Jake stayed and talked to us for about 5 minutes or more--GREAT guy.)
