They run mostly Cover 2 or Cover 3. They want to get pressure from the front 4. It's a stop the run on the way to the QB type rush. LBs are iffy, and the Secondary misses assignments all the time. It is getting better, but they were the worst to start with.

The Lions have a good offense, so I expect them to put some points on the board, which will hurt the Panthers because their ball control offense is not suited to play catch up and score lots of points.

It would be nice to have our full complement of CBs for this game.

 

But like I mentioned earlier. Our D is better than theirs. However, their O is better than ours.

 

It is going to be an interesting game for sure.

I would imagine we will get outcoached.  Their OC is pretty good and ours is McAdoo.....

Hence why I said their O is better than ours, but our D is better than theirs.

 

Their D is improving. But it was at or near the bottom almost all year. So improving, but still susceptible to big plays, and long drives.

The very Panther thing to do is:

     beat Detroit. Lose to New Orleans 

That way, screw draft position and playoffs at the same time and still Hire Wilks 

the lions defense is susceptible to the run 

a veritable trifecta of Panther fandom 

So it was written, so shall it be done.

Sorry bout that. I guess this board has me on more of an edge than I realized. I wasn't trying to be rude. Hence is what the wife uses when she wants to make a point. So I guess I stole it from her, and threw it at you. lol

Agreed, he needs to hire an outside consulting firm.

It is a huge choice that will effect my expectations with the new crew. It's hard for me to believe our current people are well situated to make a great hire if we don't. Maybe it's better than Tepper going it solo but not enough to be optimistic about to me. Who is going to lead the charge? The guy who traded too much for Sam? The guy who did CMC's deal to prove how smart he is? Steve Drummond, Hurney's protégé lol. Pat Stewart, the guy so good we had to go get Morgan to offset his and Fritter's misses in 2021? I am not impressed with any of that at this time.

No worries.  It's hard to pick up tone and other things on a message board.

McCaffrey's deal was done by Hurney.

And Morgan was Fitterer's choice. He was always going to be here. The two of them joined the Panthers the same year within a few months of each other.

All the people I mentioned are Hurney people expect Fritterer. Hurney was the GM on the CMC deal but we had hired the rest expect Fritterer right? So they were part of the process I assume with Hurney as the head or did Hurney hire the cap guy and then not have him work on CMC's deal? That looks a lot like the Moore and Moton deals? 

Morgan is the only one I didn't mention because he hasn't done any bad that I have seen in his first year here.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
