This Defense.... whoa buddy


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

I will go on record right now and say this defense will absolutely be ranked top 3 this year overall. When the starting unit is out there, there really are no weaknesses. Sure, some positions are better than others, but none are a concern really. 

If they can stay healthy, I feel like we all are going to witness something truly special this year.

This is certainly welcome news. But it's something that frankly should be expected. With all the resources we've poured into that side of the ball the last several years, anything less than a top 10 defense is simply unacceptable. Especially when you factor in that we are once again put into a position of essentially hinging our season on a high percentage of uncertainty along the OL after watching our QB get knocked around the last 17 games.

I'm not convinced it will be effective. Time will tell. 

All the more reason CMC should be our return man, absolutely no questions asked-to make things happen and turn the tide of games.

Think the best secondary the Panthers had was 2005. This secondary has that feel to it. 

Talent wise, this is the most talented secondary we've had this century. 

If the parts play as a unit, with this front 7 in front of it....

 

Oh forget it. It'll suck!

Defense is stacked!!! 4 solid Dt's. Vet de's feeding off each other's energy. Lb's just reaching the tip of the iceberg, playing next to Luke makes TD like 27 in his subconcious mind. Safety Vets who know where to be on the field. & young cb's that have already got there freshman whoopings out of the way, the only way is up.. and we are underated right now, by the time they see it coming it will be too late!!!

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
