If our o-line unit is healthy, it'll be pretty good this year.

Andrew Norwell, being the white buffalo monster he is, stone-walls JJ Watt and renders him useless on a passing play while Matt Kalil holds up Clowney long enough to let Anderson throw.

Keeps both defenders well away from Anderson as he threw the ball, then let up once the ball was thrown. 

Good stuff from the both of them, especially Norwell.  Hope to see a lot more of this.

It doesn't look like Watt was putting any effort at all in to that.  Now I see what Jeremy was saying.

That or Norwell did a number on him. Maybe wasn't full going, but that's picture perfect blocking from Norwell there.

Yeah, he was knocked off his feet but if he can block for that long, we'll be fine. That was plenty of time to get plays off unless Shula has us running 60 yard routes like usual

That just didn't look like the most convincing clip of stonewalling. Neither defender put up much of a rush. Straight in to the chest of each lineman.

Yep. Watt looked like he was sleep walking the entire game. You can tell he just does not want to get injured again.

I'd agree about watt, but clowney put up more of an effort. And an 80% clowney is still pretty damn good

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      I realize it about the expectations, but on paper, we drafted players who would have a chance to compete at positions where any could realistically step in and take the job---Freeling?  Yup.  Hunter?  Yup.  Brazzell?  Yup.  It is likely that all three see the field early and often.  Day 3:  Lee?  I see him as the #3 CB and the job is his when they are ready for him--and it is his to lose.  Hecht?  I loved him in mock research and called him the best C in the draft.  He might play a year behind Fortson or he could take the job--regardless, he is the obvious front runner for the 2027 season.  Wheatley?  I see Ransom and Moehrig as basically the same "in the box" type S.  If Wheatley can learn for a season behind Scott, he has the tools to be a serviceable FS, something this team needs.  Finally, Kuwatch seemed to be a PS pick, and he could be--but to win the 4th ILB job, he needs to beat out Bam Morris-Scott and with a 46.5 vertical (I can't do that on the triple jump) and a superior RAS rating, he looks like a special teamer and depth piece.....I forgot about Morgan's comment about giving up the 5th--probably to get ahead of Detroit.  Freeling has the athleticism and the tools to be the best OT in this draft.  The others lacked arm length or something like that--Freeling simply lacks a ton of experience.

      excellent points and insights.  I agree on Tepper.  I guess I worry that his questions and comments might influence the thinking of his employees, that his presence in the room might add pressure to an already stressful situation, but after watching it again, it does not appear to be like that.  Morgan was in charge.  Canales mentioned needing a center, but beyond that, he was there to serve as a consultant, more or less, if asked.  I suppose my point was this--everyone knew their roles, I did not see egos--I saw empowerment.  As for Morgan--I saw a leader that listened to others, made wise decisions, and never lost control.  I was VERY IMPRESSED with Dan Morgan.

      Pretty good summation, although I would caution just a bit that there might be a little of over-enhanced expectations. I do agree with the assessment on BPA. It was exceedingly clear they had a specific shopping list. Early on when there was some discussion about the tackles available, Morgan was asked if he was willing to give up a 5th to get Freeling, if it came to that. I think the only way it wasn't a left tackle with that 1st pick is if none that were valued as a 1st were still available.
