Ball just not bouncing Carolina's way

Recommended Posts

How many tipped passes have gone for picks? How close was the Sheldon Brown pick from being incomplete only to be scooped up and ran pretty far back?

The tipped pass in the playoff loss?

Johnson for Tampa fumbling 5 times I think and the D recovered only 1?

Kenneth Moore having the ball hit him right in the chest, he falls on it only to knee it forward.

Transversely the Saints game. Pass near the sideline that is tipped and looks like it's going to go out of bounds only to be picked by Sharper and ran back.

Steelers game. Horrible tripping call that took away a td for the Vikes. VERY next play they get a to and run it back for a td.

Carolina is just not getting any bounces on any side of the ball this year. Add that to a struggling QB, offense that Stevie Wonder can gameplan for and you get what you got right now.

You have a point... think back to the year of the "Cardiac Cats" when we got every single break imaginable... this year it ain't happenin'.

Having said that though, you can win without all those little things going your way, you just can't do it with a QB that continuously throws the ball to the other team...

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
