Top 3 Reasons The Panthers Lost Today

Im beginning to think zone D is the best we can do. We cant really play physical man D with Tillman and Finnegan starting at corner thats just asking to much. It really blew me how we continue to run the same defense all game when Atlanta kept exploiting it with slants and out routes. Losing Bene really hurt us more than i wanted it too. We just gotta find a way to make it work.

I actually missed this game today due to work, so ultimately it's hard to comment on what lost us the game.  I did see the first two drives from the recording of the game and a couple of highlights from Sportscenter.  The defense didn't play well, yet before Julio had that big catch for a touchdown, we had a 10-7 lead in the fourth quarter. (It could have been late third quarter)  Where in the world was our offense today?  Did Atlanta have very long drives when they had the ball? (I know they had the ball for 15+ minutes in their first drive that was aided by the Tillman penalty)  I say the offense lost us this game.

Something I noticed rewatching. 

1. Remmers was beat the same way on every single time Cam got pressured. I do mean the exact same bad kick back not lining up his hips so the defender got outside leverage and pushed him around. Every time that happened Cam got hit, fumbled, or threw an errant pass by mikes guy.

2. Our WRs were pushed, held, and manhandled past the 5yd mark that's allowed. Not a single flag or anything. On the missed pass to Ginn, brown was running up and I believe was Cams next option. But Philly's defender practically tackled Brown 12 yds past the line of scrimmage. So Newton tried to force it to Ginn. Atlanta was allowed to take our WRs out of the game all day with no repricusions.

3. On devontes touchdown. The Olineman ran up grabbed Luke who was on his way to stop the run. The Olineman then tackled Luke in the middle of the field and in the process knocking josh out of the way. So only Tillman was left to stop Freeman. Not a single call on any of that. 

4. Almost every 3rd down they converted either CJ or Kony were very close to a sack but each time the lineman let them get outside angle and then push them to the ground. They were on their knees or faces every time. This is a problem. Even though it kept happening they kept doing it.

this was a strategic loss by Ron.  he knew there was no way anything atl did could stop them.  so he gave the other playoff teams he may face game tape on how to beat the panthers.  They will use atls game plan and fail miserably.  Ron has said repeatedly in press conference the goal is not 16-0. the goal is the superbowl.

This is what I believe as in no way Carolina actually got beat by the mangina of a team.

Hmm, interesting...

    • 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.
