Panthers led the league this week in QB pressure Rating this week with 13.5%
 

5th overall for the season.

 

not bad. 
 

also of note our pass defense is 7th overall which is amazing considering the talent or lack thereof we have.

 

 

Very impressive. Credit has to go to Bridgewater too. He's making smart decisions, and getting the ball out quickly before he even gets pressured. The line, particularly given the injuries, is definitely outperforming expectations too.

The pass defense stat is arguably even more impressive. We replaced Bradberry with another team's castoff. Eli Apple has played like 2 snaps. And we've played an above average slate of passing offenses. Herbert is slinging 300 yards plus weekly, Brady is playing like he's 30, and we turned Murray into a dink and dunker with 4 yards per attempt. Hell, Carr is probably the worst name on that list and he's on pace for 4400 yards this year. Plus we have the worst coverage linebacker in the league in Whitehead. How that adds up to 5th ranked pass defense is mind-boggling.

I always said that the New Orleans offensive line got good ratings because Brees moved well in the pocket and got the ball out quickly. With a similar system we are seeing the same thing. The more I watch the offense the more you can see the nuances and subtle things Bridgewater does to avoid pressure and quickly find the open guy.

Yea I have to wonder how much of these stats are due to scheme and the style of qb Teddy is vs actual talent and skill.

 

its no secret Cam would hold the ball a lot and would also look to run where as teddy will throw a lot of short quick passes.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
