Everyone wants to blame Sam for the drop off week 4 on but when Horn went down the defense took a hit and not being able to go man to man and blitz like they were able to the first 3 weeks.

There's no room for logic here, sir.

I don’t get the love for Lamar Jackson.  Dude is not an nfl caliber passer.  

Bro, he won a MVP.....he was a cheat code that year, like Cams 2015 year.....

Ds have a read on him now, except Andrews whom they triple....

trade a world of assets for him, given Darnold is at the helm...

I don't blame Sam for the drop off.  When CMC and 2 OLmen went down, and then we traded away Arnold, the O was going to take a hit.  But Sam then starting throwing interceptions on first and 2nd down.  Take the sack, throw it away, but don't give them the ball.  It was just pure ass play at one point.   That's when I turned on him.

I mean you also have to acknowledge the caliber of opponents we played the first 3 weeks too though. 

it’s a lot easier to go man on two rookie QBs both makings their NFL debuts.   And a team displaced by a hurricane with their coaching staff out.

CMC was out for more games in 2020 than 2021 though.  He only played in 3 in 2020.    7 in 2021.  He can’t really be used in talking about the drop off.   
 

*he could be used in talking about both likely would have done better with him more available.

Huh?

We're talking about the drop off after game 3 and the there clearly was a drop off after the Houston game.  CMC went down game along with Horn.  Sheesh.

My bad.  Thought it was the offensive drop off from 2021 to 2020 being talked about.   It will be okay. 

Just inside the 2021 season? I addressed that in another post. yeah, CMC applies.   So does the caliber of opponent.  The first 3 were super weak.   It was talked about in real time when some were claiming we and Sam were good.  So does teams figuring out what we were doing with Sam and what we didn’t trust him to do.    Teams started to get fllm on him.  The staff was calling direct runs when it got tight because they didn’t trust him and things like that.   

I don’t think either drop off is that hard to figure out.  If Rhule couldn’t….that’s a problem.

The lack of adjustments was directly on the coaches. Also that Giants game was one of the worst play offensive calling experiences I've ever witnessed. I had a feeling we were in trouble when we basically got shut out in the 2nd half of that Jets week 1 game.

Rookie corners take time to get to speed for the nfl in general no matter the opponent…see Josh Norman and Bradbury. Horn is what I like to call “different” in a good way.

      So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.

      My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
