Film Study: How Matt Rhule system works for the Carolina Panthers

Recommended Posts

It's always good when you have a QB who can scramble when facing man to man and nothing is available down field.

I don't mind this offense but the danger is DB starting to break on the ball in zone coverage and making breakups and interceptions. The DBs have less to fear because they're not seeing double moves as much and Teddy is not connecting deep. So as the game moves along the DBs start taking chances and breaking for picks. With the Bears they knew their pass rush would limit our deep passes, add to that Teddy misses a lot deep, and you end up with aggressive DBs looking at the QB and breaking on routes. 

When we're not doing well in the trenches you can feel it as a fan. You feel pressure, and you know Teddy is reaching his breaking point where he is going to start throwing bad passes. Teddy is fine when we're ripping off one big run after another, and no one is getting near him. He's aces. He's a totally different QB when the run is not going so well, and the pocket is not holding up. You know then the interceptions are coming, and we can't recover from them.

Dude, every QB doesn’t do good when the O-line plays like crap, run is get stuffed and pressure in the QB’s face....

It’s like saying.... You know if a team scores the most point they probably will win.

I don't think every QB doesn't do good under tough conditions. The all time greats could take over a game even with the run not well and a shaky pocket.

If a team scores the most points they will certainly win.

So your saying Teddy is not playing like the all time greats?  Well no sh*t.  Tell me who is besides maybe Wilson this season.

its weird how all time greats just happen to have really good olines.  i don't know if there is any correlation at all.  i'm sure its just a coincidence. purely happenstance 

There is some correlation, I agree, but players like Archie Manning and Fran Tarkenton never had "great" lines and yet were widely recognized as some of the best QB's of their era.

Going to finish the whole video but just have to note, that first play is a perfect example of why CMC is so valuable. Every receiver was blanketed in coverage, but If teddy swung it out quickly to CMC, he only had to beat one linebacker in space which is a matchup he’ll almost always win.

You have to remember the game was a lot different back then.   You have to put it into some perspective.

Russ has had a really bad O Line his entire career and he's been great for a long time.

Now, O Line surely has a lot to do with making QB's better, but I don't think it's the end all be all when talking about the "all time" guys.

If prime Manning 1's line was suspect, he was smart enough not to have it completely derail a season.  A great OL can make a good QB look like a great one.  Much like Reid's system can make an OK QB seem like a really really good one...and a really good one seem like an all timer.

    • Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.
    • If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?
    • Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
