Two to think about.

Per Brian Strickland at Panthers.com.

 

"It's not coincidence that Carolina scored 10 points when Newton was sacked eight times, 20 points when he was sacked three times (at Denver) and 46 points when he was sacked once (vs. San Francisco)."

 

"Carolina's 26 penalties so far are fifth-most in the league. Not surprisingly, the seven teams with 25 or more penalties through Week 3 had a combined record of 7-14."

 

So maybe it is just that simple. Protect Cam, and limit the penalties.

So...what you are saying is; Let's clean this mess up. Get back to playing Panther football. And start winning some durn games.

 

I'm with you. Besides a few missed plays, most of our ills are lack of discipline. That is not our normal game. We still want to play a physical, beat you up game. But we usually play with more discipline. Or we did. Get that back, and we should be good.

The amount of penalties is disturbing tho...I really don't understand it I hope it's Something they can get corrected....I automatically subtract 10 to 15 yards from where ever Ginn catches punts...sad

 

Rivera hates penalties. Although he does understand that sometimes they just happen. I do expect them to clean this up. And I mean like, right now. All RR wants is for his players to play tough, disciplined football. We still have that tough part down. It is that discipline part we are lacking.

 

If we continue to be a top 10 team on Offense, and Defense, we should win a lot of games. But, if we don't clean this mess up. It is going to make the going just that much more difficult.

If it were penalties for being too agressive you know like roughing or PI I could understand but it's bonehead penalties, ticky tack stuff  which does give me hope that it will get corrected

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
