Amini......playing better

Recommended Posts

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.

    • What it feels like is a horrible source reality. What a person sees is a horrible source for reality. Stats can be easily misunderstood because because they are interpretive and contextual. Very large data sets with dozens more more connected variables are difficult to deal with and understand correctly. Throw in confirmation bias, abstraction, emotions and the way human brains are wired make it really easy to roll with eye tests and intuition. The negativity for Bryce was really high and most were ready to trade that asset for peanuts until the second half of last year when he began to play much, much better.  Hope sprang eternal.  The Saints game last year.  Going toe to toe and almost beating the two teams who went to the Superbowl last year.  Beating the Falcons when the Falcons had everything to play for.  Haters started adjusting their tune. Fan and media starting saying it looks like Carolina has found their franchise QB.   The real answer was and is, maybe. If he plays great on Sunday the anti-Bryce crowd will find other excuses or say it's only one game. If he plays horrible, it'll be more of the "I told you so. I knew it before he was drafted." (which is beyond stupid since there there is not an actual way to know if a player will be successful in the NFL or not.) I'll leave with a simple example.  Of the initial list of incompletions due to WR error, Jarod Goff has 0.  He was 31 for 39 at an almost 80% completion percentage.  His WR's much has balled out. Except when you add the facts that only 11 of those passes were to WRs.  14 were to RB's and 6 to the TE.  Gibbs has 10 of those receptions and he's elite so that explains why we shouldn't put much stock into this stat.  But then we see that Gibbs also set an NFL record with the least number of yards (31) for any player with at least 10 receptions in a game. Fun stuff! Oh yeah.  From week 1 how many people had Justin Fields and Daniel Jones playing at elite levels?   
    • How do you reconcile with the fact that the most competent and productive the Panthers passing offense has looked at any point between 2023 and 2025 were both games where Andy Dalton (who is completely washed and terrible) started? 680 passing yards and 5 touchdowns in two games. And one of those games was with Frank Reich as the head coach. This team needs competent QB play.
    • If we're in position and he is there, he will absolutely be the pick. He goes to South Carolina after all
