Dontari Poe

Yeah the penalty was stupid but idk why you guys are mad at him. He's been doing exactly what he is supposed to do. Star had a pretty dumb personal foul penalty last season and I didn't see a thread made about how he sucks. There has been practically no difference between Star and Poe and we got Poe for a discount compared to what the Bills gave Star.

If anything blame Vernon Butler. It's his bum ass fault we had to sign a starting caliber DT. Coaches weren't going to say it before the season but it wasn't about him playing a different DT position. It was because he is fuging terrible. He is probably in the top 5 of Panthers biggest first round busts.

Butler can’t help where he was drafted. Blame DG for that gem.

Same poo regardless. Once Star went to Buffalo to cash in we had to make a move and I still think it was a pretty damn good signing compared to what others got around the league. We should count ourselves lucky. For how much poo we have been giving the D line this season, imagine the same line with Vernon Butler starting. Yikes.

He still on falcons payroll

He is taking up space, the same way as Star, and he is effective at it. With two men generally having to keep him at bay, it allows others to do what they do. I don't know what's so hard to understand about that. Sure, he isn't getting much of a pass rush, but that's never really been his forté.

People whined about Star, and now they're whining about Poe. It is what it is. They're nose tackles who command a double team on most plays. Poe's time will come. He'll make a push play ever so often. But he is at least doing the minimum, and still cheaper than Star.

    • Say you don't understand PFF without saying you don't understand PFF... Every week seems like some of the same people are complaining about something they clearly don't understand.  I'm not saying they are the end all resource out there but once you understand their methodology you can start to appreciate some of their work. For example, their grading system isn't a high school grading system, try to look at some of it in relative terms.  Rico had an 82 rushing grade, that's pretty good.  I would be curious to know how that compares to every other running back this past weekend. Also, I think he had a few penalties, which if I'm not mistaken are graded pretty harshly.      
    • Can we go back to square one for a minute and remember what we paid for this guy and how he was sold?  He was like, the anti excuse. Makes everybody better, Did we get that?  I think the answer is still coming but so far you might can say that for a game or two.  Cam had issues with personnel every season almost. Horrible OL, but he had receivers. Decent to good OL no receivers. Etc. Bryce needs to stand up, or keep standing up, however you want to put it. It is big boy time in year 3. He doesn’t have to make the playoffs but there is a standard. We’ll see what happens.  But the excuses are just fuging tired.  ps, I mean let’s not crown him when he has franchise record production in two wins,.. let’s see when they stop that, how he does then. 
    • Where do you draw line top3 or top 5 money then? I wish he goes for a "hometown" deal and doesn't try and reset market but it's going to be tough to argue not paying him BIG MONEY if he continues do be a stabilizing force on the left side of line. DM got some tough decisions to make at the OT position coming up.
