#1 Offense in the NFL


The Lone Panther

Its getting to the point that Cam is damn near unstoppable in the redzone. Can't even begin to imagine what happens when Kelvin is back.

We will have a downright filthy offense. And if Gman can keep our defensive backfield intact this offseason, we may be looking to repeat as SB champs. ;)

You are so right. Getting Kelvin back next year....wow. And, Gettleman continuing to do his magic with free agents and the draft. Look out NFL, the Panthers are here to stay.

That Yards Per Game stat right beside it is also important. We're 26th overall in yardage this year. To be the highest scoring team in the league, yet doing it among the least yardage producers says two things: we're very efficient on offense, and, more importantly, our defense and special teams are putting us in great position in each and every game.

It's really something special to have a team playing this complete of a game. Wow, we're lucky to be seeing this and it be our team.

I think the magic is already with this team. Why would anybody want to leave this chemistry. This much fun. I think Jared allen may just come back because he hasn't seen nothing like this before. Signing players may be easier just due to how connected this team is. You always make a exception for family.

Carolina also leads the league in TOP (AZ is only 18 sec/game behind) and combines the 2nd highest rushing yds/game with one of the lowest passing yds/game... the formula is working to perfection.

The way he's throwing, Cam may be nearly unstoppable from anywhere in opponent's territory right now.

One thing I'm curious to dig more deeply into in terms of stats & analysis is looking at all of our TDs this season.  It seems to me that we have a pretty significant number / percentage coming from well outside the Red Zone, due to Cam's deep throws, and Ginn's speed, etc.  I'm curious to see how this year's team compares with other elite teams, and other Panthers' seasons under Cam... 

May not get to it until after Christmas, but my impression is that Cam is scarily good not only in the Red Zone, but even from 30 or 40 yards out, and that we have a higher than normal % of non-RZ TDs.   I could be wrong on this.  It's just a sense I have as I look at the drive charts, but not something I've yet studied.

Grabbed the stats from SI.com. Found out, after the fact, that I was just reading the total yards passing for the team. My mistake, sorry about that.

The yardage in the passing game is deceiving, we are ranked low in yards but high in passing yards per attempt... 

That's fine, and it even further supports the 'efficiency' angle while also still highlighting that the running game is driving the TOP. Don't need to throw passes when the run is effective, and need to throw even fewer when the ones that ARE thrown get chunks of yardage

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
