It is said that they will not win if they keep the run first scheme against the good teams. Obvious that they cannot pass block. This is not LSU with Burrow and stellar wideouts. Hopefully Brady understands which way this needs to go now.

Run the ball. They can scheme around the four RB's and pass with shorter routes. Throw deep when the opportunity presents itself. With this Oline and QB, they have to play to the offense's strengths.

We're basically just where most Panthers teams have been. We need to control the ball by running and safe passes, and our defense needs to generate turnovers and 3 and outs. That's all well and good when our o-line is more powerful than the opposing d-line, like with the Falcons. The problem is when we face a big d-line that can stuff the run and force us to pass. That's when captain interception, Sam/PJ, will wreck us.

Give Sam a little bit of time before defenders are surrounding him, and he'll be fine. Problem is the Panthers,  don't  have the talent up front to compete against a good front 7. Lately, they haven't had the receivers either who can make any contested catches. I don't care who the QB is. Being under constant pressure is going to force him eventually into bad decisions. Sam didn't have happy feet until he started getting assaulted, starting with that Cowboy game

I mean this only works vs bad teams that cant stop the run... Not like Hubbard has much wiggle or anything to him to make the difference. Then at some point you have to be able to pass. I think this wont work vs the bucs or so. Atlanta has never had a Defensive first priority. But Props are in order for making these guys look decent no sacks allowed.

So who does PFF assign responsibility to for all the free rushers that came through several times?  The OL was better, but sheesh several falcons players came through untouched at times 

I'd have to look at the plays specifically but there are multiple situations in which that might not be on the OL(missed block by RB/HB/TE, more defenders rushing than blockers available, etc).

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce

      Yea Bryce was definitely a top half qb the second half of last season but I'm not sure Canales is 100% sold on him.  Like I've said in another post I think that's part of why we talked to so many South Carolina players in the draft process.  I think they are doing early due diligence on Sellers just in case.
