We've already fallen back to middle of the pack in points allowed. 

almost like a sinking offense pulls the defense down with it

no one except the most hot take poisoned of posters would say the defense isn't being killed by the offense, but hey man that's something you need to work through on your own

That wasn't the case against WFT. The offense didn't have anything to do with Tua looking like prime Drew Brees right out of the gate either. It's okay to admit the D sucked the last two games. They're still the strength of our team, it's just that being the strength of this team is like being the best team in the ACC this year. You still suck.

Runner up rookie of the year and they move him when LBs not named Shaq suck diq

I think that goes into complaining about the coaches tho

Yep, they’ve taken a difference maker on defense and turned him into the invisible man. Great scheme boys

well its a good thing the coaching staff was blessed by the defense talent fairy and they didnt draft those players

but at what expense?

you go all defense in on draft, then take a top CB the next with a top pick, and then spend even more future resources on more defensive top FAs/CBS

sound great

except your oline is literally the worst in the league...and olines take years to build

past 20 years of SB contenders had two things most strongly in common defense and oline

there has to be a balance somewhere and they overkilled it

good luck finding 5-6 long term offensive oline starters in the next couple years with gutted draft picks

It turns out that building 1/3 of a football team doesn't make you any good.  I don't want Rhule doing any more roster building for fug's sake.  We've wasted millions and three draft picks on QB this year. He's done enough damage.

When you invest all that in the draft/FA you don't expect a middle of the road defense you expect a defense to dominate. Ravens/Bears teams with real elite defenses won games 10-3, 13-6, 3-0 and poo like that.

Idk if that was supposed to be sarcasm but it’s mostly true. They did make a few signings and trades for some solid talent. (Reddick, Gilmore, Bouye, etc)

Rhule spent and entire draft on defense and the only real stud to come from it was Jeremy Chinn. Horn was looking very promising but he went down early week 3. Derrick Brown is looking like he could move into bust territory based on draft position and the fact he’s being bench for what I’d assume are performance reasons.

They added talent to what we already had but when the going gets tough they haven’t been able to utilize them properly.

I’m getting iffy on D. Brown and YGM. Also Chinn is invisible at safety 🤷‍♂️

brown is a bust

YGM is good but can't stay on the field

Chinn is part of probably the best secondary in the league. Not sure he is big enough to survive at LB. Don't hate moving him to DB. He's all over the field, just doesn't show up to the casual fan who doesn't know what he's watching

the entire premise of this thread is that the coachign staff wanted to murder was able to build a stud defense through the draft and free agency

you're just like pointing out what im saying

    • Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers. 
    • Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production. 
    • I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
