The thing about OL is continuity. First of all, they are learning a new offense. Second, they are subbing guys in and out like crazy. At least Friday they let one set get more than one drive together. Third, Brady has looked pretty overwhelmed the last two weeks going against some premiere defensive tackles and add in Ickey's brain farts as someone put it. Lastly, again for the cheap seats, they are being crazy vanilla and I know winning preseason games are very important to fans, but scheming also takes in account the line shifts as well as the protections. Give this group some time to get fully healthy and gel. RG will look a lot better, Ickey will get some chip help, and there will be a game plan! Go to the hot mic thread and read how David Newton was caught talking about putting out bad OL press for clicks.

I don’t think it was that bad. I remember stats of how Darnold was holding the ball towards the top of the league in terms of time. Icky went a long time without giving up a sack and that’s who people seemed to be concerned with. 

Most people had high expectations for Icky as a top ten pick. He was asset more often than not. Generally the thorn for us has been interior pressure. I don't expect that to drastically change.

BC has been a pleasant surprise plus Corbett should be back soon. Bozeman is more than capable at C, but I wouldn’t be against trying to get Bryce a long term solution there next year to develop with him.

      Who will blow it Sunday?

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They are 1 and 9 against the  Bucs in the past 10 games. the Panthers go as young goes.  QB1 ‘s are suppose to dictate and overcome  and elevate Everything the QB does affects every part of the team and Bryce is uneven. Canales and Bryce have  an uneven relationship too  as for Evero, the only thing that might save him is the injury to Baker’s left shoulder and oline injuries. I don’t even know how he is out there   I really feel their season ended last Sunday Canales’ division record isn’t great   Getting owned by the Saints and Bucs isn’t a good look

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Jacabee · Posted

      Frankly surprised by the amount of people that want to hang Evero. This was a defense that was almost universally considered the bottom of the barrel before this season started. We’ve managed to stat our way to the middle of the pack whatever that means. Those critical of the zone schemes, what do you want? When even JC is getting burnt one on one by Olave you have little choice. There definitely have been moments where the zone blitz stuff has bit us. That said, are the third string linebackers (and nick Scott) covering poo anyway? This unit had only conceded 10 points going into the fourth quarter despite a litany of bullshit penalties on both sides. Them over performing is the biggest reason we are still in playoff contention.
