The NFL has a lot of "corrections". The first drive of a game, for example, doesn't always tell the whole story (that's been a pretty common one for us).

Likewise, Week 1 of the season is often a bit illusory.

A lot of conclusions that people draw based on what they observed in the first game of the year will turn out to be false by the next week, or the next.

And others... won't.

That's why this Sunday's performance is something to which we should pay very close attention.

If the team comes out looking at least half decent on both offense and defense (especially run defense) then the upcoming weeks might not be so bad.

But also sad to say that if we start out looking flat again and the defense is still giving up chunks of yards from the get go, we could be looking at a disaster of a season.

So what will it be? Don't know, but I'm ready to find out.

See ya Sunday 😕

I was a bit concerning when they didn't have some sort of success on the first drive. That drive is scripted and shows a bit of how bad we have it in the coaching department. Everyone knows Baker didn't have a full offseason with us but that should have been known. Same for the defense. Did they watch any tape?

Last year our trademark was looking good only on the 1st drive lol.

Yes, if we look better week 2 then there is some hope.

If there isn't a very noticeable difference in week 2, don't expect to see much of an improvement throughout the season. 

They have to make things right this week....or it's going to be a long one for those who decide they want to keep watching that poo.

In my experience as a fan I’ve never seen run defense improve in a season or over a season(outside of the 2006 Colts in the playoffs). No matter the team they all want to run the ball and exploit you where possible. 
 

I just don’t see any d linemen getting heavier, stronger, or quicker very fast. Snow’s scheme doesn’t seem that flexible to put more bodies on the line.

if you watch the all22 Ian is shoved in the back by the safety and falls into DJ. This is just half second perfect screenshot to make it look like they are blocking each other.

A half second screen shot of a blown assignment which lead to that. MG is in our backfield before CMC is even at the LOS. I stand by my statement.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By TLGPanthersFan · Posted

      I have said if you out even an average QB into the offense we are averaging 25+ points a game. But that will never happen with Bryce under center.

      The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.

      Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.
