Imagine if we invested in offense what we did in defense

Imo this is why a defensive minded run first coaches are a dying breed. Me personally I use to love to watch a DE obliterate a QB but that's no more and a defense in the NFL today is more of a prevention unit than a dominant force. 

With that said if we took the reverse approach and drafted mostly offense I think this team would have been more bearable. Putting a priority on QB and OL this team with Brady would have put up numbers in the 30s. Yes we would have gotten out scored and out coached but there is something more bearable in losing 30 to 40 than losing 7-40.

 

 

Rhule said today he ‘went that direction because when Rivera left everyone on the line moved on as well’ so he was ‘trying to field a team’

The difference?

Joe Brady wasn't a Rhule guy, no investment and the guy is fired.

Phil Snow is absolutely 1000% a Rhule guy, lots of investment to force the defense into showing improvements (because of talent) means his job is safe.

Fatt Mhule is garbage

They technically have, this POS salad is what we got.

They brought in basically everyone minus CMC, Moton, & DJ Moore.

Just drafted 2 WRs, 2 OL, 1 TE, 1 RB

Signed Arnold, Erving, Elflein, Doubled down on CMC, Robbie, Darnold (who accounted for a 2nd, 4th and 6th)

That’s 9 draft picks worth and a lot of decently priced contracts. They’re just really bad or oft injured players.

Yep and built the #2 defense in short order.  This is a bad thing?  Jeez

You believe that was the #2 defense? We got gashed up and down the field. Even by the Giants and the Dolphins. Keep dreaming I guess.

I really like our defense.  There I said it.  Two pieces from completion.   Free safety and MLB.  Carter, Luvu and Shaq are solid but adding a young field general in the middle is "chefs kiss".  Then adding a safety with coverage skills to go with Chinn who is extremely talented at finding the ball in run situations and has blitzing capabilities is part of fielding the top defense we are capable of being.   Sorry tangent.  To the point of post yes we need to spend draft capitol and free agency monies on offense.  The offense is more like seven pieces away.  Center, Left tackle, two guards, tight end, running back and quarterback.  I think BC, tremble, Elflien and a healthy CMC can only help the situation.  CMC and Tremble need running partners to share the load.  BC and Elflein just need a shot at a position till we can find a upgrade or someone younger.  If BC and Pat can fill two of those spots then it leaves only five spots.  Still reading? Here's a top 10 mock draft. 

1. Jags ~ Evan Neal, Bama LT

2. Lions ~ Aiden Hutchinson, Michigan DE

3. Texans ~ Kayvon, Oregon DE

4. Jets ~ Kyle Hamilton, ND Safety

5. Giants ~ Ikem, NC St OL

6. Panthers ~ Cross, Miss St OL

7. Giants ~ Linderbaum, Iowa OL

8. Falcons ~ Strong, Nevada QB

9. Broncos ~ Pickett, Pitt QB

10. Jets ~ Stingley, LSU CB

This is the QB crazy draft. This is actually what we hope the steelers, browns and Vikings think is gonna happen so they trade up.  Fun lil extra where the qb's land  in this scenario 

11. Redskins ~ Howell UNC QB

18. Saints ~ Willis Liberty QB 

I'd rather wait on a QB till next year.  Weak class is a misnomer cause these kids can play but the caveat is they need to be put in the right situation. We are not it right now till we invest in the offense better.

They stop gapped most of the offensive line and the QB position. The only decent players on offense that was brought in by Rhule is Anderson who had a crap year. All our 1st round picks however have been spent on defense. While might I add we haven't drafted a offensive talent first round since DJ Moore in 2018.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
