Predicts Brian Hoyer will have a big day vs the Panthers Defense. Insert funny memes below, he said this on NFL Live. The homerism is real,  his reasoning was "Shanahan" is great with Quarterbacks and Hoyer isn't a bad QB. While his analysis on Hoyer may be correct on being a decent QB, they're playing against a potential top 5 unit Imho. It's going to be a long day for 49ers fans buying this poo.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit concerned tbh. While we are much more talented, we have a history of slow starts, making below average QBs look good, and not being able to defend the short quick passes...we could be in for a surprise Sunday.

Not just gonna walk around with my chest poked out because I think we are better/more talented. 

Wouldnt be at all surprised to see Rivera and co get out-schemed and we are battling down to the wire. It's the NFL, nothing is easy.

Can't say I disagree with Young. Entirely possible Hoyer plays well. Shanahan knows our team... could definitely find a way to exploit our weaknesses. Hope we show him some things he hasn't seen before.

Considering Atlanta put up 48 and 33 against us last year (including a 503 yard passing day for Ryan in the first game), solid pass defense would be a good place to start.

Why is "Shanahan" in quotes? Is it to emphasize something or what I am missing?

You can say it's the NFL nothing is easy and blah blah, but the Panthers have one of the best defensive units they've had in a long time. I honestly don't see the reasoning behind why the 49ers are going to give the Panthers a tough game. 

Then you haven't been watching Panthers football for very long. Even in 2015, those first few games were tough wins.

Last year, especially towards the beginning of the year, the Panther's defense made a number of questionable QBs look like Tom Brady. So it is not that far off IMO.

 

hell the 15-1 year they made some crap QBs look like Tom Brady, the home New Orleans game comes to mind

      ESPN's Top 10 Impact Rookies(non-1st Round)

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.

      Scourton may not get double digit sacks, but he won't be a liability on every other down
