SOME 2017 STATS

Recommended Posts

#19 total offense 

#28 passing 

#4 rushing

#7 total defense

#18 passing defense

#3 rushing defense

# 3 sacks

NOTES: Its obvious we need a better passing attack by adding a decent receiver in the draft , we did a decent job adding wide receivers in torrey smith and jarius wright bt were missing that stud , torrey and jarius are good compliments , will samuel and byrd live up to the hype? im not going to rely on it , so i would love to take another stud receiver in the 3rd round .

PASSING DEFENSE: we need corners!!! let me say it again we need corners . watch any highlights of last season you will see us getting pressure but bradberry or worley giving up a first down , that is our biggest issues , we also need to add a safety as well and i think decent value for safety is 2nd and or 3rd round , i would like to see us double dip at db and go cb first and safety 2nd , we would get the most value out of that . Our defense is a couple defensive backs away from being the best defense in the nfl.

I would be fine with CB in the first and S in the second if they are the best players available. We are weak at CB but could find a great S in the 3rd. We also lost a lot on the o-line and need to replace or get a younger guy that can contribute. I would like to see CB in first and OT in second and S in 3rd even if we have to trade up using our other 3rd.

Safety eh? You really wanting to trot out 29yo Searcy, 37yo Adams, 30yo Colin Jones and some UDFAs? And that's it? Really?

I'm tired of depending on defense. Let's score a bunch a damn points. Nobody the last couple years have won the super bowl with defense. Look how damn awful Patriots defense was last year and they made the Super Bowl. Lol it's all about offense in the NFL now and with all the penalties they called on defense.

Honestly?  All we need is a modest improvement in pass defense without compromising our run defense and we have a SB caliber total defense. 

Maybe not sticking two young corners on a man island because our DC is blitz happy will help.  Maybe Cockrell is an improvement over Worley.  I think we're already slightly better at corner.  We do need to replace Coleman, but I think we can still do that.  Modest improvement from 18th to tenth would be great.

As far as passing offense goes, this is where we lose games.  We absolutely must become a threat through the air.  If we were simply an average passing offense, it would further improve our run game and make our offense quite potent.  Just getting that safety out of the box and making opposing corners play honest would be huge.

Put a top 10 overall offense with a defense that is improved against the pass?  I would not want to play us in January.  In fact, I'd be terrified.

It's so easy to see that passing offense and passing defense are big reasons why this team fall short of Superbowl every year.

O-line and receivers and d-line and corner backs. Luckily the top of the draft is strong in all those areas where Panthers will be picking or trading up.

If Cam didn't carry so much of the burden on offense, we could have easily been a 3-6 win team last year.

I'm so happy Shula is gone.

You mean layered routes with guys going to the same spot on the field wasnt good?

You mean waiting until :08 left on the playclock to give the play to the field isnt good?  Not allowing the QB to get to the line read the D, make adjustment, do a couple hard counts to draw them off. Thats not good?   With no time left on the clock, allowing pass rushers to time the jump with the playclock hurting the OL, thats not good?

 

Damn im so glad that bum is gone.  Barring injuries, i think we see a Huge leap in offense this year.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
