He is an edge rusher so he should be used that way. What is being done to him and Chinn is unacceptable. 

Snow is a joke in the NFL. 

I’d really like for us to draft/sign a true free safety with range, and use Chinn as an in box SS or just a flat out linebacker. 
 

His nose for the ball and natural instinct are perfect for that role. We were basically gifted a new defensive tone setter with Chinn right after Luke retired and all they have done is neutered him.

I have no idea why he is at FS for us still. When he was roaming spots as a rookie he basically was a LBer or SS with some CB thrown in. Now he is just avoidable for the most part. 6 tackles per game this year just seems like a waste. Every day I dislike Snow's scheme more and more. It's like Burns dropping back in pass protect. GTFOH with that BS.

Where was the defense ranked last season.  I don't think defense seems to be the problem.  The fact that we cannot score any points is the problem.  

That depends entirely upon which metric you judge by.

The Panthers would like you to believe they had the #2 defense in the league last year, because according to yards given up, they were that.

In the measure that actually translates into wins - scoring defense - we were 20th.

Figure out which number best suits you.

In all fairness, you'd expect to win games where you give up less than 20 points.

Yep, but yet we lose any game where the other team scores more than 19.  In today's NFL where everything is geared in favor of the offense, you need to put points on the board, bottom line. The defense is the only reason we were in any of the games this year and last.  Last week they were on the field for 41 minutes.  No defense can be expected to keep it up at that rate.  I would be curious how much time they spent on the field on the average last year.

      Wilmington hockey?

      Especially with no other major sports in the area other than UNCW basketball and soccer. It's a good 2 1/2 hour drive just to catch a collegiate football game. If this new arena were built I would hope it also includes an Adult League - I would join up and time allowing would be more than happy to help coach some youth teams. 😄

      Panthers Wideout Retreat - TMac Vlog

      That was real fear in his eyes when the rope was being taken. My younger days, I had my best friend that happened to be black come over all the time. I had the nicest bulldog on the planet, my friend Damon was scared to death of him. His grandmother and daddy taught him to fear all dawgs and seen the same fear in his face and voice.    I think alllll young kids should take swimming lessons and not fear the water. Very thankful my parents did this, I no longer get in the ocean since its 50% sewage. But I enjoyed all the lakes, pools, and oceans I swam in.

      My personal opinion is the non-guaranteed contract is the main reason for NFL success. MLB and NBA players are on cruise control after their big contracts and it shows in the product.  NFL is each year you are fighting for your job. Same for the majority of the public.... You get lazy or try to coast after the 100+ million contract, your ass will be cut within 1-2 years. Then the next one will not even touch 100 million+. Besides a few NBA players like Kobe was coming for blood with a 300 million contract or 1 doll hair deal. Brandy Beal just reached a buyout where he was getting 110 million, many other cases..... I dare say his name for the hornets guy..... MLB sooo many times as well.    If the NFL starts fully guaranteeing all contracts, Id have a new hobby to fill the hours of entertainment NFL gave me.
