This D is going to be really special this year.

If we can prevent big gap runs, I think this defense could be historically good. 

I know Pats have a weak schedule but my god their D is ridiculously good right now. 

I want a Pats vs Panthers SB with us getting revenge!

Beating the Pats in the Superbowl is my dream scenario.

It almost feels like Ron has said “screw run defense, we are all in on defending the pass because that is how offenses are putting up points”

The Packers look like they are doing something similar and the Eagles finally adjusted in the 2nd half against them and ran all over them in their comeback.

It has worked well for us so far. Teams have been able to run against us but it really hasn’t led to many points. Interested to see what Jax and Fournette do. He just had a huge game against the Broncos.

That is my biggest concern!

 

I do not mind letting another team rack up rushing yds against us, but the explosive runs concern me.

Like how LF did against the Broncos.

Given how the NFL is so geared towards passing these days, this seems like a reasonably workable approach for the most part. Passes that give up big chunks of yards are far more common than runs that do.

Well we have something the Packers don’t. Luke Kuechly. I think Ron trusts Luke to limit those and prevent their big runs from overwhelming us.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
