My confidence against intermediate offenses is pretty much gone

We need the pass rush to provide a pass rush. QBs have all damn day against our D right now. The Atlanta game wasn't on them. The Falcons game planned to get the ball out quickly to take advantage of our CBs constantly playing off, but Eli could've read a book today in the pocket. I don't care who you're playing or who you have in the secondary, if you give a QB that much time he's going to eventually find someone open.

This defense is going to get smoked by the upper echelon teams in the NFC. If we can't contain Eli Manning and the horrid Giants offense, I can't even imagine going against the Rams, or Brees twice again. We are literally going to have to score 35+ points to win in the playoffs. This is what happens when you "hire from within" instead of going out and getting a proven DC (it's Mike Shula all over again, only on the other side). Eric Washington is getting schooled.

we just barely beat a potentially 2-14 team...

i cant even get an hour before yall depress the poo out of me?

Dont put the blame on us, blame the panthers for how they're playing defense. If we dont start playing at-least physical in the secondary, we're going to get killed. Eli Manning just killed us, its embarrassing

We're not getting enough pressure without the blitz.  Run defense is really solid but we need the pressure.  If you don't get it with our zone scheme, you're f*cked.  

Love it when we blitz, it works.  Did we run any blitzes today?   If so, not enough to be noticeable.   Eli is easy to beat when you pressure him.  We are so conservative and you would think that would prevent the big play but we give up big plays constantly when we play conservative zone D.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
