Yahoo.com article: How Phil Snow turned the Panthers’ defense into the NFL’s new nightmare

I hope we’re able to capitalize on this before offenses figure it out.

Nice article. Not only the hype but analysis. Good read.

Yeah, assuming we do whoop the poo out of Houston tomorrow, the hype train is going to be firmly rolling down the tracks.  We are going to be the talk of the league - even more so than we already are after last week.

IDK guys....this time around just feels different.  It feels like we are actually building something long term special here, instead of these 1 year wonder flash in the pan teams.  With all the youth we've got, all the studs up and down the starting lineups on both sides of the ball, all the cap space we've got, you've got to think its only going to improve moving forward.

I really think we let up on the gas against the Jets, and we'll probably do the same tomorrow.  If pattern holds, a 3 score lead  then pump the brake.  Maybe experiment a little.

We are going to run a lot more.  We have no excuse this time.    They were the WORST team against the run last year.   There should be holes to run.  I expect a couple breakways, even for Chubba, maybe we'll see some Royce.  

I really think we ran up the score on the Saints because that is what they did to the Packers.

They won't for a long time.

I hope you all will remember that Snow was the guy that pointed out Darnold to the FO.

They can try to figure it out all they want, but there is hardly anything you can do if Horn is locking his man down and Burns and Reddick are simply beating the man in front of them one on one. 

Speed kills.

I think the defense and particular the secondary was very different between Green Bay and the Saints. One was a prevent shell while last week was a primarily man cover often cover 0 pressuring receivers off the line preventing the quick hitters. I hope we keep the man and retire the prevent defense of last year. Especially since we now have the guys to run a man scheme.

Agreed

You can't "figure out" talent.   If the athleticism and execution are outstanding, a defense is going to succeed.

The personnel will pretty much dictate what he can do. Last year he didn't have time to get these young guys ready from the jump. As the season went on and he had time to get them use to the pace aand flow of what he needed them to do you could see significant improvement in the defense.  He also didn't have much to work with.

You're right.  It was.  We couldn't play man last year because we didn't have the personnel.

When you're outmanned, you don't play man.

Rhule said he wanted fast, athletic and players that could play multiple positions.  Last year we had a couple of pieces. Now IMO we players at ever level that can move into another position and perform it well. 

You got guys that shouldn't have the talent to back out and defend and got players that are coming in on the QB when they probably shouldn't be.  I think this is why Shaq is doing so well.  He's able to be athletic and this defense is perfect for him.

I pray Snow doesn't get a big head and leaves to be a HC.  He's a defensive guru and hopefully he knows this.

I think this is what you need to do, almost every time until it becomes impossible to lose, at which point you burn clock, don't get hurt, and go home.

You don't want to be in a 28-3 situation, if you know what I mean.

Here we are doing the exact same ordinary corner blitz 3 times in a row:

It's me playing Madden, keep running the same blitz every play until you find a way to beat it...

I feel seen, thank you coach Snow!

I agree.  Against teams like the aints and Bucs, don't ever let up on the gas.

I think we can let up on the Texans in the 2nd half and probably will.

We'll see.
