Panthers Defense Appreciation Thread

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.

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...

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.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean, no I’m not going to panic when he got 2 Qs and looked great in 1 and looked not great in another (let’s not mention the drop).    Yeah we finally have a team that would be considered average offensively around him. Let’s roll this season.

      The woe is me everything but Bryce sucks mantra is stale af my friend. Look nobody here is going to argue with the fact Frank Reich was not a good head coach. At the same time. Bryce Young is now in his second season with his second coaching staff and a handpicked young offensive head coach who has been known for working with QB's such as Baker and Geno. As far as the offensive pieces around Bryce we have the 4th highest salary cap allocation (that might be even higher now after the new Moton deal) dedicated to the OL in the entire league. We have 2 first round WR's one of them 8th overall the first time we've ever selected a WR that high in franchise history. And the fact of the matter is Bryce Young did not have a good preseason. It's not the first time it's happened either. We all hope to see he and the rest of the team flip a switch in week 1. But we should all be able to agree that the offensive performances we've seen from the entire QB room (Bryce included) in preseason was simply unacceptable.

      We have seen Bryce play… what… 9 games with AT BEST what one would consider NFL average WRs? You just can’t see the forest for the trees and keep going back to your lazy take of revisionist history.    he looked AWFUL Y1 with the worst coaching I’ve ever seen in the NFL and one of the weakest WR rooms I can recall. He looked awful first half of y2 and great second half of y2 with average coaching and average skill position. I don’t know where this elite talent argument even comes from.
