Any thoughts on how we're able to shut down the running game? Is it the d-line (I've seen Burns and Reddick very involved in run D rather than just existing as pass rush specialists), is Brown that good at clogging up the middle? Are our LBs playing like the second coming of the Three Horsemen (Luke, Davis and Thompson)? Big support from DBs and safeties?

Or is it just an overall explosion of motivation? The entire defense seems to take this personal that they will own the field. There are so many of them in on every tackle, very little standing around and being out of place. Playing with drive and desire.

Dang, this iteration of the Panthers has been long awaited!

Scheme and the personnel to execute said scheme. Our D is literally designed to shut down zone blocking schemes along the defensive line.

I wanted Derrick Brown because a guy like him changes everything.  There is a domino effect with a guy like that.

Fox as well, his ability to move from game and read the gaps and go to the right one while shedding blocks to get to the carrier is fuging insane. He's a great complimentary piece to Brown. They, along with YGM, are the ones doing the dirty work so the LB's and S's can run around, blitz or get to the runner if they break the first level.

I'm looking for Dallas to run a lot of 12 personnel. They tend to spread you out and go empty with it. 

And they will get run over if they do that. People have broken down how our defense actually forcese teams to do this and it allows them to become ferocious getting to the QB.

It's really designed to adapt. You put a hat on a hat it's bad news. You zone it's bad news. It's a combination of scheme and talent.

Haven't you heard?  Kamara forgot how to run and  the Saints OL forgot how to block during our game and didn't have the the defensive assistant coaches there to remind them how.  Poor sobs.

You forgot to mention that they were apparently down to 3rd string players on both sides of the ball minus Jameis and Kamara.

Oh, and Sean Peyton was the only coach available on all of Louisiana who didn't have the Roni 🙄

    • Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.     
    • I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.
    • I was ok with the mentor aspect of keeping Dalton, but wow has he fallen off the deep end. The slow behind the WR interception was awful. I keep hearing our WRs created no separation, but on that particular play dude was wide open and Dalton couldn't get it to him with a clean pocket. Next year, we need to address the backup QB spot haaaaaard!
