An ESPN analytic stat shows just how bad our offensive line really is.

so taking into account better quality defensive opponents/strength of schedule?

 

fug a PFT. My eye test of watching damn near every single Panthers game of all time tells me this is quite possibly the worst o line, and worst offense overall in Panthers history.

Still there are ways to scheme around it and if you don't scheme around it, you're accentuating that weakness.  Several teams like the Chargers, Steelers, and Patriots have lines that would average out in the bottom third of the league and none of their offenses look as broken or dysfunctional as ours.  Also, look at teams like the Saints and Patriots pass block win rate versus their run block win rate...  sure, you could say its because they're built to better to pass block, OR maybe, just maybe, they're scheme gets the ball out quick so they rarely allow pressures.  It all goes hand in hand...  is our OL personnel garbage?  Absolutely.  Is it being exacerbated by idiotic, amateurish coaching even more so?  Absolutely.

Gotta have an Oline first, but I agree we need a QB too. Sucks to waste CMC this way, he could have taken us to the promised land I think 

You don't need the Oline first, you need a QB first.  There are teams on that list with great O-lines who are terrible offensively because they don't' have a QB.

It depends on what kind of QB you have. Pocket Passer needs an O-Line. A QB with the ability to scramble, then maybe not. The worst part is there is no really enticing QB in the draft - its basically either Sam Howell or the Liberty QB.

Nailed it 100%. Without a running game it’s much harder to pass/pass block. Without the appropriate scheme, quick decision making, and good routes by receivers who can catch, you are going to be an atrocious offense.

Its no one issue, it’s literally the whole offense. But it starts with personnel decisions and coaching for sure.

The offense is playing undisciplined football our TEs were f'n up royally too. That's coaching. 

The sense of urgency, attention to detail is missing. Understanding timing, absent. That's coaching. 

Drawing up plays is cool but when everybody's job is literally on the line you've got to make young players understand that part of it.

Every play may be your last opportunity. Do your job. Coaching.

    • I realize we were down 24 points when the Carolina Panthers touched the ball  for the first and only time  in the 3rd quarter...and they went on a 14 play checkdown drive taking the exact plays the Cards wanted them too and gave them overall.  and now you got folks cherry picking random plays asking how could it be garbage time if the Cards weren't in prevent on a 3rd down short yardage play or on the goal.  all you got do to is just watch the game live on repeat and not listen to the announcers.  
    • Just my opinion, so take it for what it's worth. I think Bryce decides who he's throwing to before the snap too often instead of reading what he sees post snap. Now alot of that is trying to influence the safety, but if the safety doesn't bite, he gets stuck and it turns into Bryce trying to make a play off schedule as the other options are gone. Cam did the same thing when Kelvin and Smitty were in the game. Bryce sees the field. He just gets a little stubborn sometimes. And that's when he gets himself into trouble. That and he doesn't trust guys to make plays on 3rd down. Instead of throwing to the open guy and letting them get the remaining 3-5 yards for the first, he'll wait until he can throw a guy to the markers. I don't think those physical limitations that keep being brought up is that real for him. Well... until he gets tackled and fumbles the ball at an alarming rate. But he has a strong enough arm, sees the field, and doesn't get injured by regular hits. 
    • Panthers win of course.  Like every Sunday I still have the hopelessly optimistic mindset  😎
