I know a lot are excited to see Baker against Cleveland D

 

 personally I want to see Eke against Garrett. Garrett is THE BEST DE in the business, his dominance reminds me of a prime Julius Peppers. If Eke gets help and keeps him from disrupting the day then I’ll be very excited. If he holds Garrett to 1 sack or less I’ll be very impressed.

who calls him Eke...? 

 

 

Most critical outside of Baker and our OL is definitely our run defense. I expect Chubb and Hunt to have success against our run D but we need to mitigate the damage significantly better than our run D from last year if we want to win. I think this offense is going to take a few months to really gel and the defense will need to prove itself early if we're going to be a true playoff contender.

Someone posted yesterday that we were 8th last year in yards per carry. Now to me? That's pretty respectable. I don't understand why so many around here seem so down on the run D?

Me and my TV with fargin PANTHERS FOOTBALL on it!

But the "matchup" I'll be anxious to see is not the normal "them vs. us."  I want to see how Baker matches up with a healthy CMC who matches up with a revamped O-line. 

So, I guess it's our healthy/revamped O against their D.

      Legette is a Luxury to the team.

      It probably would be. Given that most 6th and 7th rounders aren't NFL game day material except on the Panthers, the pick might improve us slightly with a drafted player, but I'd like to see us actually be able to open up the field. I do think some of our offensive problem stem from defenses aren't afraid of Bryce's arm. They cover a short field and that makes life a lot easier for them.  If it doesn't work though, unless we get rid of the scouting department and whatever drafting algorithm Dave is making us use, it won't really matter anyway.

      XL about to turn the corner

      I think the Baker/Darnold thing has been overblown. QBs that struggle with the team that drafts them and go on to find success elsewhere often do end up going to multiple new teams before they figure it out and/or find the right situation. It just so happened that we traded for both guys in back-to-back years and neither player had quite figured it out yet. Baker, I think, needed more time and a better supporting cast. Darnold, I think, benefitted from a year on the bench in San Francisco a ton. I don't really have any ill will towards either of them. I think they both came here with the best intentions after coming from difficult circumstances; unfortunately the Panthers were - and still are, it seems - also in the process of figuring things out.

      So...who'll win this week?

      By mav1234 · Posted

      At this point this is all I want from this team. I'm done hoping for wins. I just want to see a competitive team for 4 quarters. Come out of the gate hard and don't give up no matter the score.
