No Pass Rush

Biggest reason why we lost the game is that we couldn't generate any pass rush. I didn't see much blitzing out there which I think we should have done especially on 3rd down.

I blame this loss on poor coaching defensively. The zone was supposed to slow down the Falcons and prevent big plays but it allowed Matt Ryan to pick us apart. Even though the stats don't show, one third down conversion after another just killed us.

I'm really losing confidence in this coaching staff and probably the players are too. They looked content with keeping this one close and didn't have the killer instinct to go for the kill.

We also missed Chris Harris. We need some big hits in the secondary.

I love how The Panthers hire a new DC and they're still running the same lame ass vanilla D they ran last season. Why in the hell are the CB's still playing 10-15 yds off the WR. Even when The Falcons were near the endzone the CB's were still playing off. The Panthers need to learn how disguise their blitzes a lil better. God I wish we had Rex Ryan for our D coordinator lol.

The D handled the run pretty well, mainly due to the speed of the linebackers and the ability of the secondary to play the run. Against the pass though we were destroyed. The front 4 simply can't generate any pressure - and that includes Peppers - he doesn't require a double team, so the 'lesser' players on the D-line are never put in favorable matchups.

We basically play a cover 2 without actually causing the QB to rush his throws, resulting in the holes in the zones being exploited. It really is frustrating to watch.

      Gettleman rode the coattail of best QB in the league and did nothing to support him. He let Agent 89 walk when we had zero talent at WR. For all his talk about hog mollies he did very little at consistently upgrading the lines. He gambled on questionable talent and put us in the direction we are in now.  Focusing on the first season record is a weak argument. Dan fixed our offensive line in one season and was trying to do the same for the defense but that failed miserably because of the injuries we suffered. Everyone knew it was talent not scheme which is why Evero is still our DC.  This year we focused on defense and depth and of course a new toy for Bryce. I think we've improved just about every room and have much better depth.  I clearly see a much better direction and focus than we've ever had before.

      Am I in the minority when I say that he could do a lot better than this girl. Famous or not she’s not that attractive

      SMH. We have one 5-12 season and no playoffs under our belt. Gettleman was here for 5 off-seasons with Rivera. The team went to the playoffs 4 of 5 years, were in a SB and had a 51-28 record. Do I think DG was amazing? No, he made a ton of mistakes but acting like Morgan is amazing is ridiculous, even for your rose colored glasses. It’s hard to really praise Gettleman but we didn’t have a single season as bad as last year under him. One 5-12 season is not a king maker. Let’s get 1 winning record before declaring the GOAT GM. I’d love nothing better to call Dan Morgan the greatest GM ever but he basically needs 4 straight 11 win seasons to match the 51 wins in 5 years under Gettleman and Ron.
