If I am San Fran or any team

I realize that Cam Newton is the key cog in Carolina beating us.  Defensively it may take awhile to adjust to really being good because frankly McD is going to have to scheme around our DE and DB situation (and that won't happen overnight)

so if I am San Fran...I tell my D to see where the refs draw the line on Cam.   I expect them to really go after Cam Sunday.  Then back off of only when the refs make them.  Keep pushing the envelope until it isn't worth it. 

I still don't think refs view Cam as a guy that will get "tradtional" position protection after all this.

That's why the Panthers D will have to return the favor, I don't care if we injure cpl of player a game long as it's the opposing team getting the punishment.

Here's the thing, not every team plays dirty like that. Everyone has known the key to beating the Panthers is limiting Cam. They just haven't figured out how to do it. I doubt coaches are saying go hit him in the head. The Broncos really didn't leak a blueprint or expose anything. They can't beat Cam fair and square is what they proved. Again, even with the dirty hits and missed calls, Carolina almost won that game. Gano missed a field goal. There aren't many teams like Denver. They're good and dirty.

I agree with you but we do play a couple of teams this year that have less than stellar records for playing clean.

Rams and NO? 

I just don't think they've figured out how to beat Cam without trying to take his knees out or head off. I believe we will be fine. I don't think a 15-1 record but we will be fine.

the bronco's leaked the blue print to beating the panthers. keep in mind we haven't played a team besides Denver for 7 months. 

It's a great blueprint if you have top level talent in the secondary and the pass rush. Most teams don't have that, pretty much no other team has their level.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      How about just don't draft project players in the first round? How about especially when you have arguably the worst roster in the NFL(we did all those years in question)? You don't even have to dig into those player debates specifically. Just don't grasp at straws early in the draft.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By AU-panther · Posted

      I think there were 9, and since I haven't took time to watch each of them on each play individually Its impossible for me to say, which I doubt you have either.   It's not a stat driven grading system; it's a per play grading system.  Tommy Tremble making a great block to spring Rico for that 10-yard run might actually score higher on that play then Ricos run. The actual run might not be anything special; it might be a run that pretty much every back in the league would have made. Here again, I would guess, if you look at every RB in the league, he is towards the top in rushing grade for the year which is what most of us are seeing.  Whether you call that a 90/80/70, 50/40/30, A/B/C, Gold/Green/Red star, it doesn't really matter it's how he ranks relative to everybody else at his position.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By strato · Posted

      Well I will never knock a strong arm, in a vacuum, but it is a lot more than that to it.  Did we kill our roster building and our defense in particular to stick PJ out there?  No. We knew we sucked and he was really just a temporary thing too.  While with Bryce I see the up and down, mostly down, roller coaster on loop now in year three. It has been a Looooong time.    Back to strong arms, it is like having a powerful motor in a car. All the power in the world isn’t going to overcome a bad driver.   But at the same time, even a decent drive with a killer car will beat the best driver if you put him in a go kart   Exaggerating for effect, I know Bryce is not a go kart. Maybe closer to a 6 cylinder with not much displacement…..
