He qualified those comments by essentially saying if the Panthers do their jobs by being true to their gap assignments and play disciplined football.

“He might break a tackle here and there. But if you’re a disciplined front, everyone’s in their gap; he’s not extraordinary,” Horton said Thursday. “If everyone’s disciplined and being where they’re supposed to be, I don’t see why he’s [not] held to 30, 40 yards rushing against us.”

Horton sounds like an idiot.

 

Gurley is one of most talented backs this side of Adrian Peterson. He just so happens to be on a JV Rams offense.

We just stopped David Johnson amid him ripping other defenses to shreds. Peterson has never really had great success against the Panthers. And the Rams' line is playing like poo. I think Horton's right.

That's real football! Trash Talk is life!

This is an attitude that has been lacking for us. 

Yeah, honestly, I kinda like it. We need to get back to bullying people on defense. We need that attitude. We saw it last season, and we saw it return last week. 

I know it can happen, but I don't see us losing to Keenum (or Goff) and the Rams. Gurley is not going to do enough to mask their obvious weaknesses. We aren't going to let it happen.

      NFC South is now ACTIVATED

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      There are several posters that only post negative at all times.   8 wins is a big jump from 5 and we still have 2 games.  Jaguars have a much more talented roster than us and have underachieved for years.

      Todd Bowles is losing his locker room… Canales meanwhile

      By amcoolio · Posted

      All of this noise is just setting us up to lose Week 18 and proclaim life's not fair. If there's one thing I know in my 30+ years of watching the Hornets and Panthers, is that the bad guy always wins in the end. A team can be falling apart internally but we will still lose to them. A team's fanbase can be extra shitty and cocky and they will just win anyway. It always happens

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
