“Marty’s got a plan.”


WarHeel

Recommended Posts

Forgive me if posted already.

 

Was watching the Rivera presser and when asked about any potential movement with the trade deadline approaching Rivera noted that we have 1 open spot and that Marty has a plan. Not sure if that plan involves a trade— likely not. But it’s fun to speculate. 
 

So who is the 1 guy/position (realistically) you would bring in to right the ship after that atrocity of a game yesterday?

He’s probably the last person I’d blame for the debacle. Quite frankly he’s been killing it. On paper anyway.

Games aren't played on paper. I liked his draft, but Paradis looks like a bust of a FA signing and we sorely lack run stopping DL, especially at the DE spot. It's part of why I really wanted Horton back.

I doubt run stopping dt are the issue, gap control is more so an issue than our dt getting penetration. Run game is one of the 3-4’s biggest issues

It was Paradis or roll with Larsen and company at C with Kalil’s supposed “retirement.”

 

We’d be ripping him a new one for the lack of signing.

I was saying all last year that I thought Larsen was a better option than Kalil at that point. I think he's probably a better option than Paradis too. I was actually fine with moving forward with Larsen.

    • So answer the question. Why did Chark and Hurst have the same metrics (go look them up, I did... and one was actually worse in LA) with Justin Herbert? Why did Mingo have the same metrics with Dak? You're right, there is a common denominator, just not the one you're trying to make.  Why could DJ Moore get open with Bridgewater, Allen, Cam 2.0, Darnold, Baker, Williams, Bagent? I'll answer the question for you - because he is a good WR unlike Chark/Hurst/Mingo. 
    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.
