I don’t get why people are saying elf was great. He was okay. He was also constantly on the ground and I’ve see a few plays where he got in the way of a run and caused the runner to get tackled. Not to mention the botched snaps.

 

also Bozeman is a lot bigger than Elf, 6’5, 311 which means he’s going to be a force to reckon with. He is probably a way better run blocker.

So why not make the change the week before when PJ was starting against LA?

Not sure. I didn't realize that Elflein was on IR, I thought Bozeman just got promoted. 

I obviously have no idea what's going on behind the scenes, but I could see Wilkes, a defensive guy, not wanting to mess around with a O-line that was playing well together going into last week. And Elf hasn't been bad, just kinda blah.

How did the autocorrect let that through??

 

Either way, Brady will need to be a future upgrade. He will be a good backup in the future but he is not suited to being a power blocking OL. 

Cade Mays could probably leap him, I think he was at RG mostly in preseason but he played everywhere in college

Mays seems like he is suited to be a potential as a starter or at least a quality backup. I hope so, anyway. 

Still need to invest a couple of picks on the OL this offseason again. Build some exceptional depth.

Barring injury and provided they keep performing well as a unit, we probably won't see any changes along the line this season for the sake of continuity.

But if they were to decide to try Mays as a starter, left guard is considered the easiest position on the line to play.

100%.  Our modern Hang'man

A quality line has finally emerged in the Carolinas.  Been forever, hope they continue to trend upwards.

That just makes so many people's jobs easier.  If we can only figure out this QB and Head Coach thing...

I would almost always draft a big OL in the later rounds, maybe even 2.

I'm not real big on the PFF stuff, but for those who are...

 

I’m really glad Ickey is improving as the season progresses but I really wonder how much better our run blocking would be if we switched him to LG and moved Christensen back to his natural spot @ LT? 

Damn you, Rhule and that ridiculous debate about Christensen’s arm length!

That’s what quality teams do. OL depth is critical especially for those that  rely heavily on the run game. The OL coach from our 1st SB run said you should draft at least one OL every offseason but we got away from that over the years. Good to see this become a priority again.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By jb2288 · Posted

      agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it.

      By frankw · Posted

      I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      By CRA · Posted

      I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
