Panther's O-Line hasn't allowed a sack in back-to-back games.

It's tough to get a sack when the football leaves the quarterback's hands before you have time to get there.

Add in that Joe Brady's scheme and route concepts just about always give Bridgewater an open option fast so that he doesn't have to hold on to the ball waiting for something to open up.

There are clearly differences in the offense but there is no doubt that this line is playing pretty good. If Okung stays on the field then that trade was well worth it. Turner wasn't ever going to make or break our line play but a solid+ LT sure makes a difference.

Teddy’s ability to understand defenses and recognize blitzes is a huge reason why he’s gone 2 weeks without getting sacked.

Avoiding negative yardage plays goes a long ways in winning a football game.

But I realize none of this stuff shows up in the box score so it doesn’t count.

That Falcons D was SofT. With a capital T, SofT. Hope the OL continues to gel and improve! 

That Cardinals D had some talent, though. And they came up zilch, too. The Chargers got Teddy twice, but they have some big names on their D.

I think we're seeing not just improvement in individual skills and faster reads, but something is gelling nicely there along the line and with Teddy's protection calls. Good coaching sure makes a difference. Okung has helped, but honestly, Little and Daley were both much improved over last season.

A lot of people don't want to admit it but Cam has never had the best pocket presence/awareness. Some of those sacks were at least partly on him. Of course he avoided others with his mobility/tackle breaking (though that seemed to diminish quite a bit since his first 4 years or so), so it may have evened out, but Teddy has that ability as well and has pretty damn good pocket presence/awareness.

Turner was becoming a serious liability I think. He hit his plateau and was headed down I think.

    • This is a great episode I am soo excited for this season 😀
    • Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets   The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a promising 2025 NBA Draft class and will enter Summer League with no shortage of new faces looking to make an impression. But the most interesting addition didn’t come from the draft board. Instead, it’s DJ Rodman — the 24-year-old son of Hall of Famer and five-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman — who’s bringing some extra attention to the Hornets’ Summer League roster. Rodman played four years at Washington State before making the move to USC for his final season.  He wasn’t exactly lighting it up with the Trojans, putting up about 6 points, four boards, and an assist each game. But he did shoot well — hitting around 41% from the field and draining 36% of his three-pointers.  Standing 6-foot-6, he’s got the size to play on the wing and offers some versatility, which could be just what the Hornets are looking for as they try to fill out their roster. The Hornets’ Summer League squad already has plenty of fresh faces with this year’s draft picks and young guys fighting for a role. But Rodman’s last name alone is enough to turn heads, and now he’ll get his shot to prove he belongs once the games tip off in Vegas. Charlotte’s Summer League team is already drawing interest with recent draft picks and young players hoping to crack the rotation. But Rodman’s last name — and his potential to bring energy and toughness — adds another layer of intrigue. What Rodman lacks in college stats, he makes up for with hustle and competitiveness — traits his dad was known for throughout his Hall of Fame career. If he can bring that same energy and show growth in Summer League, he could carve out a role and surprise some people. Though the odds are against him making the Hornets’ final roster, there’s no denying the spotlight that comes with the Rodman name. The Hornets kick off Summer League next week in Las Vegas.   Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets
