That is a lot for Carolina to overcome. But McAdoo said the team has a plan to combat the 49ers’ elite defensive line.

‘There’s a combination of things you can do,” he said. “Whether you try to help, or try to spit the ball out, or try to run the ball.”

The Panthers historically, regardless of regime, have never negated the opposing defense's pass rush. Instead, they call for long developing plays and hang the QB out to dry behind a leaky offensive line. I don't expect anything to change this coming Sunday.

"We're four games in."

How many do we plan on taking?  We are 1-3 just under 1/4th of the way into the season, and this was almost certainly our easiest stretch of consecutive games.  Is seven enough?  Ten?  More?

What exactly is training camp and preseason for?  Even teams that use it to actually prepare their players for the games that count (starting at game 1, not game 7, 10, 14, or 17) struggle to get that accomplished.  Those that spend their time playing high school and college mind games are even further behind.  Guess which group we are in?

Has our offense looked prepared for any of our first four opponents?  Maybe the New Orleans game, but was that preparation or the blind squirrel finding the acorn.  We seem to be a haven for coaches who think they are going to outsmart everybody else but wind up outsmarting themselves.....and that starts at the top.

 

Strangely enough, the best this offense has looked was actually the first game. Starting at the 4:46 mark of  the 2nd quarter, the offensive drives were: TD, end of half, punt, TD, TD, FG, end of game. The offense has not scored more than one TD in another game this year.

You are probably correct on that assessment.  I looked at games where we scored in the first quarter, and we did against New Orleans.  What I forgot was those opening stanza points were put on the board by the defense.  <Sigh>

So, offensively we are yet to look prepared for an opponent this year. 

But, "we're four games in."  Of course, the opponents are four games in, too, but I guess that is besides the point.

Do you remember the last 40-ish seconds heading into the half and last 4mins, the hurry up moved the ball better than any other time. With a OC like ben(who over does things), less thinking helps.....plus it was the only time CMC caught passes. 

I said that and now this; run the BALL.

Yeah, ok, Cam was brought in to make a impact, he sure did, we scored two TDs with ease, then what?

He was overRhuled and made to split time with Sam.

Cam was brought in to make the impact of getting the fans off their backs for a while.  Rhule even screwed that up.

      Best and worst PFF grades from Panthers' preseason loss to Texans

      By Icege · Posted

      I'm happy with TMac, but Tyler Warren was last season's Tyler Linderbaum for me in that he was at a position that wasn't one of the five pillars but he was the best player at his position AND one of the top talents in the draft. I cannot fuging wait for the Panthers to start winning again so that those guys fall to us like they seem to for teams like Baltimore & Philadelphia.

      Panthers' content round up

      By Icege · Posted

      Still working on consuming all of these so I don't have summaries available, but I figured there might be another Huddler or three trying to kill time before tonight's final preseason game.   Panthers Blueprint: Training Camp The in-house produced Blueprint series has given behind-the-scenes look on the field and off. Start the day with Robert Hunt's family, be in the morning meetings, mic'd up players during practice (Jaycee, Rozeboom, Icky, and Bryce), roster evaluations by the staff, and plenty of camp highlights capping off with FanFest.   Processing Blue (Mike Kaye & Alex Zietlow Mike and Alex are back talking about a variety of topics including but not limited to: joint practice + preseason game vs. Houston, Trey Hendrickson trade rumors involving Carolina, training camp awards, draft pick draft, and various thoughts about the team.   Jordan & Jake 706: Opening Day Another in-house Panthers' production, the most recent episode of Jordan and Jake talk about how to properly balance intensity in practice, react to the starters being shutdown for the preseason finale, share their thoughts on the newest Panther QB, and more.   Raw Room - Ep 278 - Gas Pedal (ft. Mike Davis) Assistant special teams' coach Darren Bates' Raw Room podcast has former Panthers' RB Mike Davis on his weekly podcast. I'm about halfway through this one and it's been a lot of fun. The Raw Room guys (DB, his friend Alex Sweets, former Eagles/Chargers OT King Dunlap, and former Atlanta DB Jalen Collins) are hilarious and Mike fits right in. They talk about his football experience coming up, decommitting from Florida and how he decided on South Carolina, and more. Warning: If you're the type of person that is easily distracted by accents, despite XL being on the team, you might have issues with understanding the Memphis dialect. If you don't care about how somebody talks, just what they're talking about, tune in!

      Allen was borderline unplayable in College.  He's an absolute unicorn in terms of his career panning out the way it has.
