What I'm looking for in the third preseason game

I'm honestly not worried about the Defense.  Evero will get those guys ready by Week 1 to stop the run against the Falcons.

My main concern is the offense, specifically the offensive line because it all starts up front.

- RBs must be able to run the ball and keep defenses off balance and catch passes out of the backfield

- OL must be able to protect Bryce Young, even in obvious passing situations, give him the time he needs to make the right read and throw. 

- Receivers need to run the right routes. Mingo is a stud but he still has a lot to learn when it comes to route running.  I also want to see Laviska used in this last game. 

That is what I want to see on Friday take a significant step forward.  Otherwise, we will struggle to score points this season and worse of all, will hinder Bryce's development as a QB.  He must be put in a position to be successful.

I want to see Bryce move the first offense in the first half against their starters. I know we won't be opening up the playbook  totally but a few more rollouts, motion, etc would be nice. Not really worried about much else but since it is a home game I would like to win the game since I will be in attendance.

Main concern is with the pass protection from the OL (Everyone but Moton really). Just worried they were insulated by a heavy run offense last season.  Defense probably needs some time to adjust to scheme and personnel changes.

No concerns with Bryce from what I've seen, he's looked very good in his limited snaps.

Everybody and they momma's chihuahua has been able to move the ball on our defense. Running and throwing the ball. Not sure if the team is still grapsing the scheme, if guys are out of position, or if its about playcalling.... but there's not excuse for how we've been getting bullied at the front, exposed over the middle, AND Beat downfield. 

Tackles. That what I want more of. Tackle football.

Evidence of competency. Downplay it all you want but what we've seen this preseason is concerning. Our OL hasn't slowed anyone down yet and our D is missing a lot of gap assignments. That's not a scheming thing. That's a lack of competency.

I would agree.  If you're getting exposed in 1v1s that's not due to scheme.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
