If You've Been Wondering About Our Pass Rush...

Stopping the run and blitz pressure doesn’t mean anything if you have Elder and Munnerlyn out there getting embarrassed on basic coverage concepts.

Watching Munnerlyn play 10 yards off the ball, then tentatively approach the WR after making an uncontested catch to ensure he didn't blow past him, only to watch him still whiff on the tackle was one of the most painful things I've ever seen live, and I've watched my wife push both my kids out...

Reading OPs post ,I agree with him on the age of the panthers  DLine

having watched browns, cowboys, heck the Seahawks D line I see speed agility that I didn’t see with Panthers , that split second Panthers were late clearly gives time to a Qb to step aside and complete a pass

should you really be surprised? Mario Addison : 31 yrs old / Peppers = 39 in January /  KK  is nearly 30 , Poe is 28 but would be 29 heading into next year .

I'm sure some of it is Washington's coaching but sweet fuging jesus man, our pass rush has been god aweful and I believe age is a huge factor. We need to spend probably at least 2 or 3 of our top picks next year on the D-line. 

Obviously no one with the brain size larger than an ant is surprised.  

And this man is still 30 with the tread of a 25 year old.  And cheap.

No one should really be surprised. We were in cap hell for years and only had 7 draft picks to help every year. This year's FA was a total bust as well. Simply put our team doesn't know how to evaluate players thus eventually we run out of talent.

That 4th and 3 with Elder May have been one of the worst plays I have ever watched.

Here's the DL the Panthers drafted for the last 5 drafts. No capital spent in 2015 coupled with what look like poor selections on Butler and especially Hall, plus the flame out of Ealy. With no young production from players on rookie deals, the Panthers have had to rely on older (and generally more expensive) players.

  • 2018 : 4th rounder on Haynes, a OLB to DE conversion and a 7th round pick on a DT.
  • 2017: 3rd rounder on Hall
  • 2016: 1st rounder on Butler (Cowboy's starting DT Collins was a 3rd rounder, their other starter Woods was a UDFA)
  • 2015: No DL selected. 
  • 2014: 2nd rounder on Ealy (Cowboy's starting DE Lawerence was pick 34)

The oldest DL Dallas started last night was Crawford (29), 3rd rounder in 2012.

Once again.

It’s blitz pressure. And that’s leading to a lot of man to man situations, many of which we are losing badly. 

The absence of interior line pressure has killed this team in 2018.

Or....we should be able to blitz because we have DB who can handle man to man.

    • They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.
    • What does it matter how fast the wrs are with Bryce he is not hitting them anyway
    • Let's be real. Signing Matt Kalil who was at the time inconsistent at best was always an extremely risky move and largely initiated by the fact he was related to one of our most prominent players Ryan Kalil. Memories get fuzzy the longer time passes I guess. Go watch some old Panthers games with Ted Ginn nearly losing us games. Then watch Cam Newton keep going back to him again and again and again. Then read all the Xavier Legette criticism while making excuses for Bryce being swept by rookie 2nd round pick Tyler Shough. Throwing TMac under the bus is just further proof how deranged the Bryce Young defense force has become. Bryce Young can barely compete in this gutter iteration of the NFC South. Let's see him take this WR core to the playoffs in an NFC South with Drew Brees and Matt Ryan
