If he starts checking off what I want to see from a CB, then I will credit him for that.

- Drive on the ball

- Challenge the ball with physical play

- communicate effectively pre snap and off the line with the safety

- Do not consistently bite on double moves

- Attack the flats at the release of the ball against the screen pass

- give up the body to make a tackle/play on the ball

- pursue and attack the ball carrier (do not jog over and watch other defenders give up their body to make the tackle)

- react immediately to the ball being thrown instead of hesitating and being run out of the play by a WR after the ball is thrown to another receiver

There are a few points I am still waiting for him to demonstrate he can accomplish at the pro level. I will gladly give him credit when he accomplishes these tasks consistently in a game. Until then, I recommend he study Josh Norman 2015 and Ronnie Lott for ideas on how to actually play DB in the NFL.

This garbage he continues with from his college play needs to stop. He needs to stop playing scared.

He has the physical DB play of Deion Sanders with average cover skills.

The Panthers have always had some physically imposing play from their CBs, but this year they are all soft and being dominated physically.

So, what you're saying is, he needs to go from rookie to All-Pro this weekend ... Got it.

He needs to get his job done. Rookies don't get a pass if they start. If a rookie wants a pass then they need to be on the sideline taking notes.

Losses are a result of players getting beat or messing up, and that secondary is where most of the losses on a play by play basis are adding up.

Wish you people would watch the games, Julio had one catch against Bradberry before heft left the game with an injured toe.

Bradberry got hurt on literally the first Falcons drive.  The first 3 plays were completed passes all to Jones.....then Bradyberry went to the bench. 

I have high hopes for Bradyberry one day.  But right now, people are creating him into a CB he hasn't proven to be.  All he had seen to date in the NFL is trash pass attacks.  The 3 plays he saw in Atlanta he didn't look any different than the rest.  Nothing suggests he wouldn't of been he poster boy instead of Bene if he had stayed in.  

23, 14, and 15 yard pass plays were the first 3 plays all to Julio to open the game...

Things weren't going well before he was hurt....he got hurt on the 3rd pass

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By trucpfan · Posted

      This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.

      Give Legette another season?

      Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
