Fewell says it's just another game but is it??

For those who don't know, we picked up Fewell after Jacksonville fired him after he led the Jaguars to 2nd against the pass in 2018 and 1st in 2017. Lo and behold, he moves to the Panthers and suddenly we have the number 1 pass defense through 4 games. So is this just  another game or a chance to show them they made a mistake letting him go.

Fewell has been one hell of a hire. Certainly reversed the slow brain drain we've had on that side of the ball since McDermott took the Buffalo job.

A defense coached by Rivera working his magic in the Front 7 and Fewell coaching the secondary is hard to beat

Add to that the talent influx with guys like Burns, Irvin, McCoy, Boston, Miller, and Cockrell getting healthy and it's a recipe for a dominant defense.

Losing Short does suck, but hopefully he will be the last major injury.

And not only has the defense been borderline dominant, they've been fun to watch

We have not faired well when it comes to revenge. Pittsburgh last year with Tepper and McCoy this year against Tampa. Lets just ball and get this W

 

or the "blood and guts" game going further back

hated that game but love this quote from the article;

I’m not saying this Panthers team is definitely cursed by Steve Smith, but it’s worth considering. Before the game yesterday, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that the team didn’t cut him because of performance, but because they were concerned about dividing the locker room. Smith apparently had questions about Cam Newton, and the Panthers coaches and front office wanted the team to belong to Cam, and Cam alone. They also thought they could find younger, cheaper receivers elsewhere. Whatever the case, Smith isn’t too worried about his long-term future with his former team.

As he told ESPN’s Ashley Fox this week, “When that time comes, I’ll be able to walk back in those doors and retire as a Panther and have the respect and not have such a split and not allow the few individuals in their temporary residence there to alter a decade of what I’ve done and experienced in that great organization. … I was there 13 years, and the way I look at it and what I was told, I’ll be there a lot longer than they will.”

You would hope he has given the coaching staff some good insights on the Jags. 

Whether we actually implement them in a gameplan is a different story. 

Exactly. While obviously the Bucs have different coaches, Fewell is very knowledgeable about coverages and how to play other offenses.  I also understand he helps out a good deal with gameplanning.

Their head coach is Bruce Ariens.

I’m talking about the jags. Fewell had them 1st and 2nd in the league 2017 and 2018. That’s why I wondered why he was fired and we were able to get him. Unless I’m missing some info that doesn’t make sense.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
