There was no excuse for the defense we saw Sunday however the offense does two things for the defense, it keeps them off the field and establishes momentum. We almost stopped them on the first drive and all but should have but a lucky fluke where the ball fell into Kittles hands derailed it. That is as deflating as anything including all the flags. If Kyle had hit Samuel on that deep ball in the end zone does our D come out with more passion?

It don't think it would have mattered. Shanahan had the perfect gameplan for us. And if our "elite" defense gets deflated after ONE lucky first down, then we are as soft as baby sh*t.

It was more then that, Keek even had a interception while we were still in the game, also saying cam makes a difference.

That ridiculous play by Kittle basically signified what we were in store for, anyone that's seen enough Panthers football over the years knows what I'm talking about. We got walked all over from the word go, the team looked like they never even really stepped off the plane.

You can obviously argue that execution was a problem, but that kind of loss with that much time to prepare is a very poor reflection on the coaching staff. Especially one helmed by a head coach that has been in and around the league since the 80's.

our D isn't that bad unless we face an O coordinator that knows how to scheme against luke.  saints, rams, 9'ers...  they all use luke's knowledge against him.   luke runs right to where the play is supposed to go, but with great O coordinators that's not where the play is going now and luke goes to the wrong place.    this isn't new.   its been going on for years.

Worst game I have ever seen Luke play. Several times he had no idea where to go, it was bad. Really, really bad.

Very true and Luke directs the defense and usually does it so well everyone completely trusts his judgment. Maybe he will learn from this game that whats on tape isnt always whays executed. However to put it all on the one player on D that made alot of special plays is crazy.

go back and look at the rams game this year.   go watch payton abuse him in our saints games they need to win.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      By shaq · Posted

      Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.

      Have to pair them like this for it to work, imo. Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Walker Ghosty - Chatfield    I'd prefer something different but that's probably what we end up with unless Ghost is traded to one of the 17 teams not on his MNTC.
