I refuse to believe that man anymore.

He really is opposite man.  Every time he says something the complete opposite happens.  There's just so much BS ; he doesn't even seem bought into his own shtick anymore. Let's see..

  • Says we'll incorporate Shi Smith into the run game and be a run heavy team; proceeds to run a fraction of the time and with a passing game focus on Keith Kirkwood and force feeding a now unreliable Robby.
  • So many instances of hyping said player only for them to either be released or nothing happens
  • Admission of how and when opposing teams played chess to our checkers (Like don't admit this stuff, it opens the windows to your scheming; or lack thereof)
  • Missed assignments and no leaders on offense (The missed assignments showcase bad coaching)

The biggest thing is the sheer lack of focus and ill-preparedness.  It seems worse than last season.  Foxball actually worked (during that era) when it was well executed, had the play action groove going with Smitty and Moose.  Had an awesome primary back with fun young compliments.  Diverse misdirects, counters, belly runs, etc.  

We are diving and stretch running.  And our spread offense strangely leaves so many guys outside in the shallow flat; in areas primed for sideline interceptions.  And the slant routes are in the kill zone.  Not deep or short enough.  Leading WRs into a fricken LB rocket launch.   

It's a bad playbook.  Like a poor man's Andy Reid system.  This is coming from an offensive coach, with a supposed rising OC future HC, and some of the worst current QB play in the league. Yuckers.

Opposite man Opposite man does the opposite of what comes out of his can

He says a word its Opposite than, opposite man

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By dep · Posted

      Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4

      The ickey ekwonu question...

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.

      Evero and the pass rush

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
