Bucky Brooks' Five Part Plan for Panthers Victory

This week, he wrote the follow up -- a 5 part plan for Panthers' victory. Some choice quotes:

Quote

1) Get off to a fast start.

Despite the Panthers' reputation as a defensive juggernaut, Carolina landed in Super Bowl 50 on the strength of a high-powered offense that lights up scoreboards like a pinball machine. 

Quote

3) Unleash Cam Newton in the red zone.
Whenever a quarterback accounts for 45 total touchdowns (35 passing, 10 rushing) in a single regular season, he becomes the focal point of the offensive plan, particularly down in the red zone, where points are at a premium. When the primary playmaker is a 6-foot-5, 245-pound dual-threat scorer with a rare combination of size, strength, athleticism and arm talent, the play caller should craft a plan that maximizes his scoring potential on every play.

Quote

For most of the season, the Panthers have been able to feast on quarterbacks forced to throw against loaded zones in obvious passing situations. The Panthers run a zone-based cover scheme that allows defenders to keep their eyes on the ball, which leads to more interceptions off tips and overthrows. In addition, the Panthers' underneath defenders excel at reading and recognizing route concepts, which allows them to make breaks well before the ball is thrown in their area. This has not only led to more interceptions from the unit, but it has helped the Panthers record six pick-sixes this season (including in the playoffs) and lead the NFL in takeaways.

    • Apparently the extension he signed before the season was also a little weird, as it had a very low signing bonus. So the Jets have a very small dead cap hit despite trading a big contract that was signed just 2 months ago. I guess it was only a $13 million signing bonus, and trading him mid-season means it's something around only a $10 million dead cap hit left to take. This is a huge win for the Jets for a player I've long felt was overrated because of a great nickname and an amazing rookie season that he's then failed to fully live up to since them.  Combine that with everyone knowing the Colts seem more mirage then legit long term contender, that 2027 1st in particular could end up being a really good asset for the Jets.
    • Steichen has the offense operating at a super high efficiency with JT/Pittman/Warren/Downs.  The OL is strong.The D - the front 7 has been sneaky good.  They don't instill much fear but do enough.  Buckner is stil playing at a high level.  It's a good system on both sides of the ball.  Blue chip players now at every position group.   Overall, the NFL is wide open right now. Seahawks, Colts, Patriots, Rams, & Bills are at the top of the mid-season hill - which is just wild Lions, Bucs, Broncos, Chargers* are in contention/okay spots (LAC is losing guys left and right though) Chiefs, Philly still linger, you can never discount. Steelers, 49ers are around as always.
