Attention any NFL pass rushers available?

People complaining about the defense, our biggest problem is the D line gets no pressure on the QB. They will continue to suck if we don't address this problem. The problem is finding a good pass rusher who is available. Those guys are important so its going to be hard to find an impact player at that position.

I agree to an extent. Today, we could have rushed Obada, but he barely played and on one call he was in coverage. A DE who is raw was in coverage. That’s two weeks in a row they put him in coverage.

another problem is that the QBs are doing quick throws. The reason those work is bc 70% of the time our dbs are 7 yards off the WRs and they have a free route for at least 5 yards. Of course the qb will throw off of a three step drop in 2 seconds and complete it for 6 yards or more every time. Now, the times they didn’t pass rush were on plays where we acted like a normal D and pressed or at least weren’t 7 yards off. There was barely any pressure on those plays and that’s what worries me.

    • Sometimes it's nice to get an outside perspective on things we are emotionally invested in. NYT/Athletic did a midway breakdown of every teams' biggest offseason acquisitions. Here's our part: Notable additions: Nikolaj Ehlers ($8.5 million x six years), K’Andre Miller (acquired in exchange for a conditional 2026 first-round pick, a 2026 second-round pick and Scott Morrow) Early return: It took the Hurricanes some time to find Ehlers’ ideal lineup fit. He began the season on a line with Sebastian Aho and Seth Jarvis, but that combination didn’t really click, with their marquee signing registering just four points in his first 11 games. Since then, though, Ehlers has settled in and found his groove. The dynamic, speedy Danish winger has scored 27 points in his last 31 games. He initially built chemistry with Logan Stankoven and Jackson Blake, but with Jarvis’ injury, he’s been bumped back up to the top line with Aho and Andrei Svechnikov, with this new-look trio clicking impressively. Ehlers’ game-breaking puck-carrying ability has added an exciting new dimension to Carolina’s rush attack. He’s been a consistently dangerous play-driver (Carolina’s controlled 60 percent of scoring chances during his five-on-five shifts) and I’d argue his point production has actually undersold his impact on Carolina’s offense. Ehlers has collected a point on just 52 percent of the five-on-five goals he’s been on the ice for — he’s been snakebitten and has deserved to pick up a few more assists. I’m also still a fan of Carolina’s expensive bet on Miller. Yes, he’s made occasional mistakes and has been narrowly outscored during his five-on-five minutes despite his strong underlying metrics, but context is important. Miller was supposed to lead Carolina’s second pair, but Jaccob Slavin’s injuries (he’s only played five games this season) have forced him to take on a larger top-pair role. That’s meant eating a career-high 22:35 per game and handling some of the toughest matchups of all NHL defensemen. Miller has held his own in this daunting role, and I’d expect his performance to level up once Slavin’s return allows him to settle into the second-pair slot he was actually acquired to fill.
    • Cam better be wandering up and down the sidelines as an honorary hype man/coach through the entire game Give Cam the halftime show (Cam IS the halftime show) Don't just roll him out with the drum and have that be it
