'Sup, Dawgs


Dilla

Recommended Posts

Hello,

My name is Dilla, and I am from Washington, NC but my family is originally from the Atlantic City/ Pleasantville, NJ areas. If you don't know where Washington is, it's a little town in Beaufort County about 20 miles east of Greenville(like 3/4 of my senior class went to ECU). I'm a junior majoring in meteorology at UNC Charlotte at the moment, though.

I've actually been a lurker here since last year's preseason, but it's a general rule for me to lurk a while to get an overall feel of the board. Of course by then, Carolina was doing really well, so I didn't sign up to avoid looking like a bandwagoner. Well, sadly the Panthers are 0-3, but that gives me a shot to register.

I'm a big fan of the Carolina Panthers and a general fan all the other major Carolina professional teams plus NASCAR. College-wise, I've been a UNC fan since '98. Don't worry though, I always follow UNC Charlotte first and I'm a big supporter of a football team, I'll buy a PSL when I get the money and if it's still possible.

I also cheer for the Minnesota Vikings, since the first NFL game I ever watched was the Vikings vs the Bears on Sunday Night Football(Vikings won 38-28 or 37-27, something like that) during that 15-1 season when the Vikings had the Randall Cunningham/Cris Carter/(rookie)Randy Moss three-headed monster in 1998. The flashiness they had wow'd me from the start and it started my interest in football. If you remember what happened to them in the playoffs that year, then you'll know when the seeds of hate for Atlanta (and Gary Anderson to an extent) were planted in me.

I hope I enjoy my stay.

    • They're sneaky good.  Very good.  And they had the personnel to match perfectly against us.   Seattle played really straight forward cover-2 and cover-3 pretty much all day.  They had some nice simulated pressures in cover-3 that baited us to move more quickly than we needed to.  They just totally cooked us.  It was a full Macdonald checkmate against Canales & the offense.       The recipe: Contain the run game enough (check) and have the LB & secondary athleticism to shut us down in the air (check)      For any team that can match our OL's run blocking, just run a cover 2/cover 3 all-day.  Similar to what the Saints did.  Pepper in some simulated pressures to bait Bryce while you're at it.  Bryce doesn't play the best against zone.  Huge weakness, averages like -.09 EPA/P in his career.  How that actualizes - from my eye test as a silly fan, he just doesn't have the velocity for the shorter/intermediates from in the pocket to the outside to get guys the ball in space vs zone.  His best games (Rams, Falcons) was when they had a blitz we caught, went man, or it was a critical down with a misdirect/PA and he had the space to throw a nice ball, sometimes with anticipation.  23rd rated QB against zone.  24th completion percentage against zone.  42nd against zone ANY/A with a clean pocket.  ANY/A being one of the more consistent correlations to wins you can find out of the EPA stuff you'll see nowadays.  He doesn't even crack the top 32 for eligible QBs.    
    • well, I have always said Sam Darnold is Sam Darnold.  Which he always proves to be.  NYJ Sam was at BOA Sunday.   I think Bryce criticism is a one of one.  Because he is unicorn. 
    • JT's Stats for the 2025 season. REC: 29 / YARDS: 190/ TD: 1/ Yards per catch: 6.6 The data seems to indicate that JT is not a huge component of our offense. His presence (or lack of it) is not what cost us that game yesterday. Sanders is a big guy but he seems to go down as soon as contact is made. He hasn't produced any "wow moments" in during his 2 years with the team. So far he's proven to be a JAG. I'd rather see Tremble and Evan on the field as our # 1 and #2 TE's.
