Panthers Defense Appreciation Thread

[Jeremy Igo]

It's going to be an ugly week.

 

These guys deserve some love.

 

Solid, thankless game for the D.

[I'm the Mike]

Great job Defense. Gave us every chance to come back and win. Even without Luke in there. Our offense is painful to watch, but the defense will go under appreciated.

[Jackofalltrades]

Complete domination today. Glad one unit performed to their capabilities.

It is all for not, such a waste

[Carolina Cajun]

There will be a full mutiny if shula isn't fired.  This was the worst I've ever seen this offense, and that's saying something.

[Newtcase]

Let's put into perspective who they were playing here.  Chicago literally has nothing resembling an NFL offense.  We really had no chance for turnovers once they had a lead, Fox was always going to play to protect the ball from that point.  The lack of turnovers continues to be a problem though.  But to pretend like our defense was awesome today is misleading.  It was a combination of Chicago's terrible offense and conservative play more than it was a signature performance from our defense.

Defense was 99% perfect. The one big play to the rookie RB being the only bad play all game. You can't have games like that on D and lose. Unacceptable. Rivera needs to be a DC.

Yes, shout out to our defense, they played well today. The only plagued that stirs out to nge was Seymour giving up a 70 yard pass to a RB...

It must be hard to continually stop the opponent and watch the offense fail time and again in such obvious, unimaginative ways. With this D we will beat teams but our O has to get out of it's own way. The worst case scenario was 2 first quarter turnovers for TD's which our D were off the field for. You couldn't have given that Bears team a bigger gift if you tried...

chicago's offense may have been awful, but the defense still played well.

I agree with this 100%. Without Luke and all they gave up was a FG the entire game.

I doubt Fox even wanted his offense on the field any longer than necessary.  Why would he?  We were more likely to gift them points than score with our offense on the field.  Sorry guys, this defensive performance is nothing more than exactly how Fox wanted it to play out after 2 defensive scores.
