Panthers win in New Orleans with Bene active instead of Sanchez

no worries, Gettlemen likely will use the bye week to figure out a trade that will involve sending Thomas Davis to Hou for Vince Wilfork.   Gettlemen likely has been stewing over the fact Butler wasn't available to back up our other DTs and will find another cog.   Once he perfects his DT situation everything will fall into place according to plan.

I think it was unfair that he was cut after that game against one of the top WRs in the league. 

There's something else there. Both Rivera and McDermott used the line "he wasn't doing the things we asked him to do" yesterday to the media regarding Bene. That doesn't even sound like blown assignments either. Something else happened or was happening between Bene and the coaches.

I think Bene was ticked they threw him out there like that to take a failed offseason on the chin and be the posterboy.  Overnight, the story on who he was as a player was literally re-written. 

You don't take guy recovering off his injury (which Ron noted the week prior) and at the last minute tell him he is going one on one Julio all game.  I think Bene was salty and let it be known about what Carolina was doing.

Frankly careers can end because coaches put guys out there in spots to fail.  Not because of inability.

I do agree that it sounded, when Ron spoke yesterday, more like player-coach conflict. To the bold, I totally agree with that.

You can bet he was not happy getting zero safety help and being hung out to dry. I am sure he let the coaches know it which is why he is no longer a Panther.

The coaches coddle Bradberry, Worley, and Sanchez. Won't let the vets blast them, and the coaches are pampering their fragile psyches. Some of the softest players I have seen in a while. The tantrums they throw or how they sulk after they get beat on a play seem to be self serving and not direct at letting the team down.

I would be pissed too if I were never afforded that treatment as a rookie on a 2014 team that was falling apart in the secondary until the rookies (Bene) stepped in and made plays.

Throwing Bene under the Julio Jones bus after Bradberry and Worley were beat bad in the 1st quarter was unacceptable. Bene is focused on nickel post recovery and the coaches throw him to the wolves to protect the fragile psyche of their rookie CBs.

he should of been unhappy.

Rivera the week prior reminded people about him recovering from his injury....and then with no prep work they put him one on one with Julio all game.  Even if you get forced to adjust because of injury to play guys on Julio who weren't prepared....you don't do what Carolina did with Bene.

    • Yep - honestly though, I thought his coverage was as good as you could possibly do on a man coverage crossing route with Dak having all day to throw. Dak made a perfect throw and if it wasn't in front of Pickens, it could have easily been picked off. Seemed like we ran more man than I have seen our defense run so far this year. Defense also did a great job of playing their gap/zone responsibilities (even if Dak did pick apart our zone a good chunk of the game) - that screen play on the last drive could easily have gone for a touchdown if Moehrig didn't play his zone and make a great tackle. Biggest complaint about Evero was not blitzing a few more times (especially when Dallas was in the red zone). The few times we did it, Dak didn't look comfortable.
    • There was some pretty egregious missed calls vs the Chiefs in the Lions game, especially Kelce. The completion where he clearly used the ground to catch the ball. The hold in front of the ref as Pacheco ran by where the defender was trying to turn around and couldnt because Kelce had him by the jersey. Mahomes openly taunting after scoring a TD. 0 penalties after double digit the week before. Cmon. 
    • People get trade happy and look at resources as barter items. They fail to see them as resources to be used to our benefit rather than someone else's. Right now, Chuba and Rico are massive benefits to us and a strong rushing attack so greatly benefits any passer, much less a young one like Bryce still is.  And the better our running game, the more our offense can eat up the clock, the less time our defense is on the field. And that is priceless, too. Don't mess with the running game. Don't mess with the receivers. Maybe look at our O-line and think we may have hit on something good during these injuries. Look at our D-line and seem some strength evolving there. Our secondary has its good spots and some that are still developing. Our linebacking corps did well this last outing. Our special teams are on a major upswing as of this past week. Heck, even our QB is showing us a little something right now that we can build on. Perhaps putting out a yard sale sign right now might be less advantageous than looking at the team and saying, "You are all part of something good that is happening. We want to see that continue to grow."
