With a 44-16 victory over the Redskins, the Kuechly-led Panthers’ defense limited the Redskins to 14 yards on 12 rushing attempts. In this breakdown, we will take a look at how the Carolina Panthers’ front seven achieved such a feat as they went on to win the game and go 10-0 for the season.

I was just entering the drive chart data into my spreadsheet...

The Redskins' yards totals form quarters 2 - 4 are really bad.

Q 1:  3 drives 91 yards (1 drive was their 99 yard K/O return for TD which shows up on the stats as "0 yards", so really this should be 190 yards total)

Q 2:  3 drives, 28 yards

Q 3:  4 drives, 21 yards

Q 4:  3 drives: 28 yards

"But the Redskins are just as bad as every other team the over rated 10-0 Panthers are.  They haven't beat anyone, not like Miami with Romo at the helm.  You know he once save 38 orphans with just his smile!  And Romo would be the best president ever but he's not running so he can concentrate on winning all the Championships for the Cowboys.  Did you know he can win not only the NFL Championship, but the NHL, NBA, CFB, Checkers and Chess at the same time, as well as the requisite number of miracles to be sainted...."

Some folks just refuse to accept that the Panthers are a really great team.  This shows how well the individual and group elements work in harmony.  And why we are so tough defensively.  Everyone with a halfway decent offense thought they would run through us because they thought we were overrated...and what happened?

Dallas could very well make a little bit of a run, but we're not going to rollover because we wish we were at home with our families.  They are going to have to beat us at what we do well:  blocking and tackling.

That was so beautiful.

That play right there is the dirty little secret the rest of the NFL don't want to face, it's not about how accurately Brady can launch the ball or how many one handed catches Odell Beckham can make. It's about fundamental football: out blocking, out tackling and winning at the line of scrimmage. At some point they will face the reality that their big men just aren't as fundamentally good as our big men.

Nice. 

Reminds me of Coach Bill Stewart's speech before the 2008 Fiesta Bowl. 

“It’s real simple: You out block them. You out tackle them. You out hit em. You out hustle em.

It works.

    • Would you just fuging quit trying to make us like him? That is his job, not yours.  Thank you. 
    • Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.
    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
