Boston/Whitehead

They are both dogsh1t FA signings

Aside from being averse to contact, Boston takes HORRENDOUS tackling angles on running plays. Not sure if it’s intentional but he’s a huge liability in rush coverage. He’s decent in passing coverage and that’s the only reason he’s still on the field.

I've never seen someone so scared of contact as Boston. 

I'll see you that and raise you Donte Jackson

I don't believe Boston is good enough playing deep to warrant that discrepancy.. It's also not difficult to to see when your tacking is this bad you won't see as many passing attempts.

That's not happening. Panthers opponents have attempted 145 passes and only 99 runs. Tenth fewest rushes against in the league.

We play a very very soft coverage....I will admit shock to that because I didn't look it up, as bad as we are agaisnt the run I'd expect those numbers to change, especially since we use a ball control passing game ourselves.

After all the fear of this OL and CBs going into the season

 

 

IMO  These 2 guys have been the 2 biggest weaknesses on this team.

[Jeremy Igo]

The two weakest links in the defense for sure, and it isn't close.

Two spots on our D that I expect us to address sooner than later. I still don't know why we gave a multi year deal to Boston. Whitehead is the worst player on D. I'm glad the new coaches are getting to see why neither of these guys should be in thr long term plans.

I know it has to be tough to follow Luke Kuechly, but even without comparing him to Luke, Whitehead is just bad.

I don’t compare him to Luke.

I naturally try to compare him to Beason since they both are #52, and that isn’t even close.

In a long line of great Panthers MLB, he is so firmly at the bottom of the list. Even under the likes of replacements like Vinny Circiui and Dan Connor.

on one of Gurley's first quarter runs he was cutting back and you saw someone with dreads just dive head first harmlessly pass him

ahhh. there goes boston again

I would take Dan Connor right now in a heartbeat

Same.  Dan Connor was a JAG . . . and we could use some of that right now at MLB.  Losing AJ Klein is a problem now, four years on, given Luke's retirement.  If Klein was still here we'd be a lot better off.

I don’t mind Boston playing at FS. He does whiff on tackles with bad angles but is good in coverage. Whitehead is absolutely pitiful at MLB.  He is never on a play & complete trash in coverage. He honestly looks lost on every play. As MLB he should be tops in tackles. He never makes solo tackles, only around for assists.
