Yeah, I'm making it up :rolleyes:

Google, Bing, Yahoo.... Shouldn't be too hard to give us a link. I showed you mine.

Reality is, Kemo got ran over for a TD by Cadillac Williams. Someone who can "take up 2 tackles" sure can tackle a small RB well. Kemo can't even run in practice without tumbling over on his ankles and breaking them, you think he's going to do anything other than be a fat guy in the middle?.

Steve Smith has dropped balls just like all WRs & TEs. Beason has missed tackles. So has Davis. Williams and Stewart have both fumbled. They're all trash. Get rid of them. Kemo was hired to be a fat a$$ in the middle. Some things can't be coached.

He probably was trying to get the D-Line motivated with what he said about the defense on their struggling year a few years ago. Probably for the same reason I mentioned.

So we go to one play? Im sure you can look at any of the great D players and see them get ran over at some points. No one says he a great pass rusher. But thats not his job. His job is to stuff.

One play that stands out, yes. His other failings are what others mention, he just stands there being a fat guy, which doesn't help the D line at all. What did Jenkins do? He actually got to the QB while taking on 2 people and run with plays out of the pocket when needed to. Lots of DTs can do that who are huge.

Kemo was way overpaid.

which hardly makes him a good DT since the past 4 years all a QB has had to do is step up in the pocket to avoid edge rushers because there's no interior push, resulting in many many many frustrating 3rd down conversions.

If Kemo's job was to provide a pass rush then fine give him crap. But its not. That the job of the other 3 players. Personally Id find a replacement over Lewis before Kemo (assuming he's healthy)

listen guys i know the opposing defense passes the ball 56% of the time but don't blame fat david tua because he's only supposed to do his job the other 44% of the time

Jenkins is a rare player. As said before, you can show any defender have a embarssingly play.

Kemo job is not to pass rush but to stop the run. He's supposed to take on blocks and get the rb.

Two great Beason and Lewis have praised him. Kemo job is to take on blocks and stuff the run. Let the linebackers like beason not take on as many blocks and run free.

Unfair to judge Kemo on our successful season this year. He didnt even play a down of football this year. Kemo has always been a beast at stopping the run and our run D has not been great this year.

yes our 20th and 18th ranked run defenses in 2008 and 2007 were really elite

what a great job this fat guy we don't even expect to do anything on more than half the plays has done

Right because judging one player for our enitire rank is logical. Half plays? His job is to take blocks wether running or not to alow other players freedom and room.

who knows pretty soon you'll admit you don't know what you're talking about.

and who was our DC at the time....... Enough said.

ohh the Trgovac card

i guess I'm trumped, because every single thing had to be his fault it had nothing to do with personnel, or that our front four is a pile of poo compared to what it used to be, and kemo comprises 25% of that pile

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      By TD alt · Posted

      I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo.

      Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.
