"THIS IS THE WORST OFFENSIVE LINE EVER!!!"

Do you guys not remember this? Just a couple weeks ago lol Teddy has to step up no excuses he's had the best line in years by FAR 

Quote

 When a zero pops up next to a quarterback's name in the sacks column, the credit usually goes directly to the offensive line.

The unit deserves it, being the most critical position group dedicated to keeping the signal-caller upright.

Every offensive lineman takes pride in keeping his quarterback's jersey clean. But there's an extra incentive for the Panthers as they protect Teddy Bridgewater.

"He's a great person," left tackle Russell Okung said after Sunday's game. "Who would want to get that guy hit?"

 

The Panthers have not allowed a sack in back-to-back games for the first time since early in the 2011 season. Through five games, they've surrendered just eight sacks, and as of Monday afternoon, they've allowed the third-fewest QB pressures at 25.

Reed was probably our downfall for this past week.  Talking about turnstile (ie M. Khalil).  Atlanta continually shot his gap all night long and we had no answer for it.

I would also put the blame on coaching.  They should have known Reed was the weak link and should have designed something to help him.  They didn't.

I saw a stat posted during the game where TB had dropped 22 times and there were 8 hurries and 3 sacks.   That's 50% of the pass plays.  That's not acceptable.   Add the fact that TB won't stretch the field (than again maybe he couldn't) but it was pretty easy to allow Atlanta the opportunity to pin their ears back and get after TB.

Obviously an upgrade is needed at both Guard positions.

Was ranked 19 before ATL. 
 

I’d imagine it’s around 25 at this point with only several worse teams.

And I do believe that’s right at where Cam’s oline ranked in it’s worse year. Except Shula was dialing up long developing plays or cam was holding onto it to extend plays.

Yet we have one of the quickest schemes and release QBs there are.

That should tell you just how bad they are. They’re officially worse than anything we’ve had since 2010.

It's hard to do, but try and actually watch just what the o-line does when we snap the ball.

It's not pretty. The center of our line is the weak spot on both rushing and passing plays. Only Moton and Okung regularly stick with their blocks. Honestly, there are times I can't figure out whether Reed is looking bad because he is trying to cover for Paradis or if Paradis is trying to cover for Reed. 

We're just not there on our O-line yet. I think we will get it sorted out, though. Just hope Teddy survives in the meantime.

I remember when people here were blasting Elway for letting Paradis go...

You've gotta be really committed to trolling to post something this dumb.

What makes it even sillier is that in trying to trash Bridgewater, he posted a link to an article that actually praises him.

From the link...

"A lot of that comes from Teddy taking a good drop, getting the ball out of his hands early, receivers being detailed in their routes and getting open, and running backs in protection as well as tight ends," Miller said. "You have to contribute all of those different things."

    • Bad news is Bryce will actually get use a middle of the round pick (9-8) missing any chance to get a QB. Honestly though I think Tep would be ok with that and see it as a reason to resign him. After all that’s the most success Tep can muster in 10 years.
    • Yes.   It's been widely reported Aaron Glenn is an egomaniac and only wants staff who will not challenge him or tip the scales of power in any direction but his.   I'm guessing that has to be one of, if not, the most toxic environments across the four major sport leagues in America.
    • Dan tends to attack one specific position group per offseason and the sprinkle others throughout the roster. He extended Moton, signed Hunt, Lewis, Nijman one offseason and then extended Brown and signed Wharton and Hunt and drafted Jackson next offseason. My guess is he attacks LB and Edge this offseason.    1. What do you do with Icky? Likely a scratch for next season and due a massive contract (if healthy) They will bring back Nijman and Christensen and draft a guy on Day 2 is my guess and hope one of them can fill the hole. 2. Coker has the talent for 2nd WR, but do you pay a guy who gets hurt that premium? I think hes your number 3 simply due to risk. Will the Panthers seek another vet or go surprisingly high in the draft? They will probably sign him more and longer than the RFA Tender to keep him happy and not break the bank in the process. Can see them getting a Vet in FA like Tutu Atwell or Hollywood Brown. Somebody with speed but also isn’t overly expensive. I think Horn and Tremayne stick around and unfortunately Legette. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tremble released and a real TE in brought in, there is a good FA group this year. 3. Do you give X more feature time? Or cut bait now? I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded him but I’m willing to bet he gets one more year. Maybe Canales can find a role like Shenault had with McAdoo.  4. Planning the long term/short term on OL Like I said I think Christensen and Nijman are brought back for T with a Day 2 rookie and prayer something sticks. Moton, Hunt, Lewis return ofcourse. Probably resign Corbett as a safeguard at Center but I think they go C in the 1st or 2nd. Wouldn’t be shocked to see Morgan trade to the back end of the 1st to get a solid C and add picks. 5. How do you address LB? I think Rozeboom leaves. Hoping CJ Allen or Sonny Styles is still there is too big of a risk. They probably go get Kaden Elliss or Leo Chenal and pay good money for them. Maybe a guy on Day 3 for depth with Cherelus and Martin-Scott. Also think he takes a swing at Edge, wouldn’t be shocked to see Hendrickson or Oweh here.  6. Do you bank of Chuba bouncing back?    I think Chuba remains Chuba. There are some decent change of pace backs out there this year that will be cheap. Still developing Etienne and Brooks may be healthy. I think it’s Chuba and that crew maybe a veteran that’s not Dowdle. More like Deejay Dallas who was here already once.  I also think Dalton calls it and they get an upgrade at back up. Nobody that would endanger Bryce’s job but somebody that isn’t 55 years old either. Trubisky, Minshew, Pickett, Kyle Allen (yes same one).
