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...

    • Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.  
    • With apologies to Lady Cowboy fan, any day we can screw over the Cowboys is a GOOD day…
    • Been here since 2014ish. Good times. Its a shame Zod wont sell, it wouldnt take that much effort to get this place back into shape.
