Philly played the best of anybody on our offense that game

Pretty unbelievable if you ask me. He's probably our 8th best offensive player and he played better than all of them before going down, in my opinion. This is why we lost. Our entire offense aside from Philly played poorly. Denver's defense is great that is true, but our offense was much better this season than they played on Sunday. As Olsen said, we moved the ball well and then made critical errors at the worst possible times. Shula didn't help out much but I'm not going to blame him because player execution was just as big a factor. Philly played his heart out, got open at will and would have put up 100 yards and a TD (if not for the facemask) if Cam didn't overthrow him a few times and that was before missing most of the second half with a concussion. I honestly like the future of our WR group. They were collectively terrible against the Broncos but with KB, who's a bonafide star receiver and was primed for a dominant season before going down in TC, back and the continued development of Funchess and Philly and having Ginn not forced into a #1 role but in a role where we can utilize his skill set to the fullest, I think this group can be pretty damn good.

Philly and Ealy were probably the 2 brightest spots during the Super Bowl.  I feel really good about our WR corp and our team going into next year.  Philly played his heart out.

And to be honest, I don't think the game had anything to do with heart.  The Broncos had a better game plan, and more importantly, they executed a lot better. Simple and painful as that.

I'll never understand why the coaching staff didn't approach Von Miller with the same regard as JJ Watt.

 

I wrote about that in a post yesterday.  It's like they didn't trust the offensive line early in the season and wanted to make sure we had a gameplan against JJ Watt, but I guess along the way we started playing better and they got deluded into thinking Remmers could hold up against Miller.

This is exactly my feelings as well.  I think the coaching staff went into this game thinking Remmers would be fine against Miller.  I just wish they had some sort of a back up plan in place if that didn't work out ( obviously, it was a big time fail ).

The downfield catch that knocked him out was tremendous, but he did drop a crucial ball across the middle on 3rd down that would've given us a 1st down conversion and probably put us in scoring range if I remember correctly.

He should've caught that but I wouldn't call it a drop. Two Denver guys hit him and one got his arms in there. In the Super Bowl you gotta make those plays though and I was pissed about that (literally screaming at my TV to put him on a plane to Charlotte at halftime or something like that). Aside from that play he was dominating, getting open consistently and catching tough balls like the one he got hurt on.

It's almost as if Denver saw this and told Talib to take him out if he could

I'm not going to loop all over Denver in that but Talib is a disgrace to the league.  Him and Burfict are the 2 dirtiest players in the game.

    • PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.   
    • Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor. 
    • Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
