The Run D Problem: Scheme, Personnel, or Both??

Our personnel doesn’t work with our scheme. And the 3-3-5 and 3-2-6 are not suitable for a base defense.

Burns-Brown-Ioaniddis as the only 3 down linemen with Wilson/Luvu/Shaq behind and 5 DBs will allow anyone to run over us. 

The 4-3 looks didn’t have Chinn play up in the box either so his skills were unused. 

Awful game plan by Snow with no recognition of our opponent’s strengths and weaknesses.

He ran more than Chubb last week.  Maybe he's tired.

I hope so! 🤣 I believe we can still win if Barkley gets over 100 but we have to get off the field on 3rd downs. That's the main problem I have with this defense. It should not be so fuging easy to convert 3rd and longs on us. It should be hard to convert those anyway and we give those up with ease.

If Snow doesn't stack the box more forcing the throw, he's going to get everybody fired.  We don't have the personnel to not adjust the D for the run.  Its like he doesn't trust our secondary.

Here's the thing about Snow:  He's spent 34 years coaching at the college level.  Prior to the Panthers, he had 4 years at the NFL level, all with Detroit.  With that pedigree, it is just possible he can't transition to what schemes, adjustments, and personnel it takes to run an effective defense in the NFL.

34 years is a long time and a lot of instinct to have to overcome.  Honestly, with that level of college experience, it is probably not realistic for him to ever accomplish that.  When the dung hits the fan, people revert to what they know.

I'm 61 and have over 33 years experience in my specific branch of the industry I work in.  I'm not sure I could transition to one of the other branches, and I think the similarities between them are a lot more plentiful than the similarities between NFL and college defenses and tactics.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
