Defense Scheme

Recommended Posts

I am sorry if this was posted anywhere else already, but do we plan to stick with some form of a 3-4 defense or do we move back to 4-3. Prior to Luke retiring, I really wanted to go back to 4-3 because he leads the defense and he is better suited there, but now I am on board with working a 3-4 if we get the right pieces. 

In any event, does anyone know what the plan is moving forward?

On the Missed Opportunities podcast they had Cody Alexander on there and he was the defensive GA for Baylor under Snow. He was talking about what they ran when he was there and what to expect with Snow, so he was thinking we’d have a sort of 3 down hybrid and run a lot of single high. It’s a great listen bc before Cody Alexander is Seth Galina who talks about Joe Brady and what to expect with his offense. Seth covers the Saints and LSU. S/O Billy Marshall with the Missed Opportunities podcast.

I don't think we'll have an idea of the defense until we see the draft. The young group of defensive ends (Burns, Miller, Haynes) seems promising. I'd like to believe they'll run a 4-2-5 base with the defensive ends being put in the best position to succeed and getting as many reps as possible.

Panthers are probably gonna suck next year. Might as well get the most out of sucking.

No clue.  I don't think you will get any idea until training camp.

Pretty much this. From the way Rhule and his team does things I think they look to see what we've got and build the system around them. 

Lots of personnel activity going to be going on between now and then.

If that's the case it would be silly to move back to the 4-3. We have 3 really promising 3-4 rush ends.

    • Yea when teams see a gun charge they rightly pause but this seems like a big misunderstanding. 
    • Sorry man you lost me at "Teppers have evolved as owners". Limped into playoffs at 8-9 not even above .500 Tepper is trash as an owner bro and that's not even a discussion at this point. 37-83 w/l ratio. Nuff said.... Morgan tho, he's cooking and it ain't cuz of Teppers leadership
    • After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...
