The key to success this season will be the LEFT SIDE OF THE OL.  .  Paradis is probably better than Kalil was last year, Moton will be better at RT.  Turner is solid.  The left side of the line?   ???

I don't look for all-pros at every position--I look at last year:

In fact,   I am more worried abut  NT than I am FS.

To me, LT, NT, LG,  FS, Nickel--in that order---are the keys to success.

So if Little can play LT......

If Williams upgrades Van Roten at LG.....

If Poe and another player step up at NT......

If Gaulden (FS) and Reid (SS) are better than Reid (FS) and Adams (SS)....

Expect 11 wins.  Subtract a W for every one of the IFs that do not work out.

You can’t convince me that Ron has ever had concentration on the offense other than keeping them from scoring quickly. 

 Concentrated is a strong word.. I don't think he was fully in that room during Shula years.. But I definitely think he made his attention known and his opinion was weighted heavily during game planning, play calling and being as conservative as possible... 

I saw a difference when Norv took over last year and a gradual phasing out of his input.. 

Him being able to trust his OC and focus on the defense is a major plus..

I got a strong feeling the defense is going to be at it's best.. Not just for added talent and new scheme.. IMO I feel Ron is finally comfortable enough to leave the offense completely in the hands of Norv and concentrate and innovate on his new defense..

I think Norv being here will not only help the offense but also help the Defense by keeping Ron in that defensive room..

Brief History...

Jmo I think Ron gave total control of the offense to Chudd his 2nd year.. After Chudd orchestrated a offense scoring 30 points a game with a rookie QB and a jump from worst offense the year before to top 5.. Who wouldn't?? But he got burned by Chudd using that season as a audition for a Head coaching job himself.. Chudd decided to forget the RB's or running the ball in general and gimmicked the whole thing trying to show how innovative he was.. Almost cost Ron his job..

Every since then you can see ROn conservative finger prints on Shula playcalling and him splitting his time from the defense.. Giving more autonomy to his defensive coordinator.. (2 got head coaching jobs)... He never trusted Shula with full control and you could see it..

ENTER NORV..

Now Norv is here and you could see a change during the end of last season (also Washington was fuging up) Ron concentrating on the defense and play calling and not worried about the offense..

Jmo .. With Ron able to trust his offensive Coordinator.. Our Defense is going to finally get his full attention.. Meaning better playcalling and way more innovation.. This could be a really strong/ game changing year for the Panthers defense..

I sense, so long as we stay healthy, a return to Top 5 defensive play. If we get quality play out of the defense that puts us toward the top and Cam isn't healthy, we need to put someone at QB who can throw it all over the field. 

The best friend of a young QB is a good running game, good blocking, and a great defense. If Cam begins having shoulder issues again, we need to have someone who can take advantage of all the receiver speed we have now.

Talent on defense isn't an issue, if Ron is the defensive coach he has been believed to be, the defense should be significantly improved.

I'm less concerned about the defense, and more just eager to see a more consistent ability to maintain the flow of the game. With the recent influx of talent, there should be no excuses to let games slip away in the same manner as years past.

You don't hire a guy like norv and then put him in a box. You just sit back and enjoy the show. 

You want a guy in a box, you hire someone like shula with no imagination and no guts. Guy keeps himself in a box.

Ron is a curious cadet of a coach.

Cannot ignore he is well received by players and the league but has his inconsistencies beyond offense/defense in general. This falls under in game coaching decisions. Having a guy to run the offense is good but he better be on point with challenges, in game decision making, depth chart/evaluation and trusting in the players. 

If he has those faults tuned out and minimizes the funk, we will be the furthest from the skunks.

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks seem to be Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team). Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
