The O line has more to prove than Jake

Just thought it was time to focus on the O line a little more than Jake, cuz I'm really tried of reading the same thread...

The playbook on how to beat the Panthers has be revealed. Rattle Jake and you win. So it's time for Gross, Wharton, Kalil, Vincent and Otah to Panther up and protect Jake!!

Because I will blame them more than Jake in the Future.

Dwill and Stew have to step up in blitz pickup also if Jake is to get any more time. The Eagles were bringing more than 5 and so will Atl.

My point. Teams will stuff the run and tee off on Jake all season. So they(Dwill And JStew included) need to be ready!!!

If Jake knew how to throw a screen pass those blitzes would be nullified.

It seems it's really easy to game plan vs our offense:

Double Smitty, check

Stack the Box, check

Blitz the poo out of Jake, check

That is all they need to do because they know Jake's limitations.

I agree that the oline will get better the problem is Jake making bad decisions. There's always going to be pressure (teams like to blitz on third and long) and he hasn't given us a reason to believe that he is capable of handling that pressure. The offensive line can block there butts off but if Jake turns the ball over and we get behind it will be the same story over and over. I hate when people have mentioned that Jake getting hit forced him to make the bad decisions because ALL of his picks were not caused by poor oline play.

A screen pass won't work when your OL doesn't even touch the defenders. :hand:

THe oline has been bad most of this year. Teams are beating us up the middle blitzing the A gap. Kalil and Vincent have been turnstiles. It isn't hard to beat this though. All you have to do is keep a back or 2 in to block or roll out away from the pressure. Or you can overload one side and run a misdirection to the other side using the tight end or running back. Philly used it for big gains on Sunday. Running over the tackle works as well.

I love how everyone easily forgives the OL. They played like absolute poo and got completely outplayed even when they knew blitz was coming. The defense could have told them how they were going to blitz and they still wouldn't be able to pick it up. I don't see why I shouldn't believe it won't happen again.

"Our OL is one of the best in the league that had an off day for the first game."

lol, what is that, a fox answer?

"The diff with that is we all know that the O-line can def bounce back no question.."

no question? haha, we don't know poo. I don't see why we should let their poo performance slide, yet never let Jake's bad performance (which had a lot to do with the OL's play) leave our thoughts.

    • I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.
    • overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.     
    • Im really curious to see how the defense is going to look once its playing with some leads.
