The route tree

On a more serious note, this is the way the league is designed isn't it? For the vast majority of teams to have a run and then put-put back into irrelevance. We drafted Norman, developed him into one of the best CBs in the league and got maybe a season and a half's worth of good play out of him before he realized he could get a poo ton of money somewhere else. In 2014 we tried a few veteran corners and they failed miserably. Now we've got two rookies whom cannot possibly fill the void left behind by Josh. If either of them develop into all pros, we probably don't get the benefit of having them play for us through their prime.

they had him on the tag. gettleman just got butt sad that norman didn't want to Be A Team Player and sign a long term contract below market value

but hey we got some cap space we can roll over into next season and extend ted ginn or whatever dumbass thing they're going to do.

The defense will struggle, sure.  But teams are still not putting up 21 on us by themselves alone.  And we should easily be able to score 21 on any D in the league.  So, the onus is on the offense to score at least 22 points and we win most games.  So far, our D has performed admirably.  And yes those other QBs will eat us up, but that's what these games are for to get experience and get the other parts of the team [offense and ST] clicking.  Unfortunately, none of that has happened.

Every single pocket passing QB the Panthers play this year is going to eat this defense alive if they don't figure out a way to generate pressure. Ryan, Brees, and Palmer are going to read the poo out of this cover-2/3 with the DBs playing off and take 9-12 yards every single time. 

They're just running the route tree. And the Panthers don't have the players to stop it.

    • 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.
    • 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.      
    • 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…..
