Has Worley Regressed?

Worley has not regressed.  From this time last year, he has improved.  He is getting picked on because a) teams don't want or need to throw to Bradberry's side, and b) Worley isn't that great to begin with, so he's not going to make a play every time.  His receiver is going to catch the ball.  His tackling hasn't been that bad.

All in all, teams aren't getting a lot of deep passes against us (although we have been giving up long drives late in games) and that tells me the all the DBs are doing okay.

Seymour might be better short term, but the franchise has invested in Worley and they are not ready to give up on him.  He is a good CB, it's just that he's the weak link on an amazing defense. 

A truly great D, with an average starting CB.  Who would you pick on as the opposing offense?

Worley played a pretty good game yesterday. He was up against a first class passer and a respected receiving corps. They were also playing on a fast indoor field which favors the offense/home team. 

On the endzone PI call, he made the best play possible. Without the PI, the catch is made for the touchdown. Interfere and break up the pass and yes, the other team gets the ball inside the 5 and four shots at the endzone, but they don't get the immediate 6 points. In that situation, he made the right decision.

Worley gets the majority of the targets because Bradberry is perceived as a top quality DB (and he is certainly developing into one). But he's in there and fighting for it. That's how your day goes if you are a team's CB2.

 

Finally. A little football sense dashed with a bit of common. 

 

From what I saw yes Worley was being targeted but at the same time he was being scrappy with their best receivers and getting a lot of bogus calls against him early on. Some people will point out his cushion but that's not on him that is directly contributed to the play call that's put in. It really put him in a cap spot but at the same time I'm fairly certain the entire reason those calls were made is because of our safety situation right now. Considering all of this and teams not wanting to go at Bradbury and our best safety right now then yeah you're going to go towards Worley and the fill in the gap safety until Byrd gets better with our playbook and defensive responsibilities. 

 

I don't get why we always have to have a scapegoat around here.

He's better number 2 than anyone else we have.

 

Worley will have that stigma forever from fans.. being a number 2 guy with fans blurting out he's bad.. the wave will continue to ride. 

I like the way he plays and I think he has flaws no doubt.. like not turning around on the ball, getting beat by speed but our defense can adjust to our weaknesses as winning teams do. Our two young cbs have a lot on their plate.. we do not have a all star saftey cast to back their mistakes up.

The Huddle overrates players in the offseason and then ask if they’ve regressed during the season 

lol

Dunno why this made me laugh so hard but it did. You do see it on here so much...I'm trying to figure out when Worley progressed to the point where you could measure any drop at all much less a regression.

Imagine keeping Norman and not having the money to sign KK 

We had a poo ton of cap space wtf you talking about. Even that year we played out with room enough to sign Norman all through. Then you look at the obvious like the Matt Kalil contract and your post is even dumber.

Do you even Panthers?

There was a much worse one on Detroit when either KB or Funchess got mugged and you could see a ref in the camera shot. Not just one grab, multiple grabs and holds, no call. It was honestly, ridiculous.

That said, if Worley has regressed and we are the #5 pass defense, I'll take it.

What really sticks out is officiating had been really good till that game. I think we came in with like 3 penaltys and left with like 12 or 13.

I know as homers you always see with a little bias, but holding calls on their OL were completely ignored. Like the one where Addison got grabbed and it was literally right in front of the ref behind the QB. They weren't in the trenches calls that we didn't get, they were right out in the obvious.

Oh well, we won, but damn that was a horribly officiated game and it was blatant, especially early in the game.

It was just really apparent because all the other games were done so well. I think the NFL had there agenda.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
