The Offense Struggled but...

[chknwing]

the defense got torched.  This was not the Evero defense I had anticipated.

141 Rushing yards

AVG yards per play 5 yards

27 points scored

Can’t wait for week one.

It was honestly the most frustrating part.

We just plain sucked yesterday. No two ways about it. I'm over it. Thank goodness the game doesn't count. Now let's see some improvement.

Ooof. That's pretty damning statistics right there.

Almost like a brand new 3-4 scheme with personnel built for years to play a 4-3 might struggle a bit... crazy.

Panthers have always struggled with depth for pretty much their entire existence. 
All of our struggling years have been due to injury for the most part. 
Our best year were almost always when the team remained healthy so we didn’t need to rely on backups. 
Looks like that trend is continuing.

But I heard before this game that switching to 3-4 was a good thing. 

[PootieNunu]

Our best players played 11-13 snaps.....

We all know our depth sucks and if we have any major injuries we are screwed, this game just confirmed that even further.

I guess all the hype behind the front 7 was due to how ass the Oline is

That not the trend, the trend is an inept front office. There are plenty of modern day teams that understand depth and talent evaluation (KC, Eagles, Patriots). Their next man up is a slight drop off and when they want $ they either give it to them and trade the first guy, trade them, or just flat out cut them because they’ll just find another guy that can fill in with little drop off.

There is a reason the Panthers have been the worst team in the league aside from a couple outlier teams that never win anything and it’s from the top.
 

Tepper sure as poo isn’t changing that so we really need to just hope lightning strikes and everyone stays perfectly healthy to win anything. There are other teams like this as well. You seen them do well until just a single player gets hurt and they look like hot trash.

Walks and Mcadoo ran for 835 yards on Evero’s defense so there’s that…

[pantherclaw]

Thank God this was a game used for player evaluation,  especially when many of our veteran starters didn't even play.

Come on man. The score was what, 3-0 when all our starters were playing? I was did look like poo but a lot of those guys will be unemployed in a month.
