The Panthers have run 61 offensive drives through 6 games, which is 14th most in the NFL. They have scored on 47.5% of those drives, which is 8th best in the NFL. However, average points scored per drive is 2.28, which is 20th in the NFL. 

The Panthers are tied for 2nd in the NFL with 23 Red Zone Attempts. They have scored TDs on 11 of those attempts, a TD conversion rate of 47.8%, which ranks 28th in the NFL. 

The Panthers offense has racked up 2301 yards, 6th most in the NFL. However they are 22nd with 138 total points scored.

13.1% of offensive drives have ended because of a turnover, which is 10th worst in the NFL. Our friend's the New England Patriots have a league worst 19.2% of drives ending in a turnover!

The offense has committed 39 offensive penalties, which is tied for 6th most in the NFL. 

Draw from these stats your own conclusions....

I mean, I really didn't need a bunch of stats to tell me that we move the ball well, but can't seem to score it to save our lives.  We are a few clutch plays from having the most effective offense in the NFL.

At this point, I'm not overly concerned about it.  If we're still not scoring our red zone drives in December, then there's a problem.  It's sometimes important to remember that this year was never about winning championships or even making the playoffs.  This year was about establishing a new team identity.

Continue making steady improvements and we'll be fine.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious.

      We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
