Panthers defense appreciation thread

Recommended Posts

According to NFL.com:

The Vikings' 41 yards rushing are the team's fewest since Nov. 13, 2005.

and

The Vikings finished with season lows in points (7), total yards (237), rush yards (41), third down conversions (1) and time of possession (22:01).

Amazing, awesome performance by our defense all the way around. We managed to shut down Peterson and Farve at the same time.... an incredible feat.

yeah, i don't want the defense touched going into next year....at least not in regards to coaches and scheme. what they have done overall has worked. the pass D is very solid. the run D is improving.

what we saw last night was a top 5 defense easily.

It's a shame the Saints won't have anything to play for when we meet them... would like another crack at them. We had them on the ropes for a good portion of our last meeting... last night proved we are capable of beating anyone, when we're not beating ourselves.

The D was awesome last night. That was perhaps the best tackling, night I have seen from the Panthers. The best this year easy; they were actually dropping Viking Receivers one-on-one after they caught the ball (few balls they caught). huge pass rush. That was a championship performance by the D.

I really hope Meeks sticks around next season. The defense is looking tpo notch these days.

:iamwithstupid:

If we keep Meeks next year & our defense played the same like last night or even better (same for our offense too), we could get back in the Playoffs. Thing are looking promising next year if our team continue play like they did lately as I said eariler. :)

Yeah the defense will be a force next year, some young guys got some experience this year and we've added depth at DT which has hit with the injury bug all season. If we get our starters back next year and they stay healthy we will have the top ranked defense next year... Even if peppers is gone I think the defense will be solid. If he wants out I believe we've got some young guys that can step up and do a substantial job and pay sloid enough in his absense.

    • I get what you are saying. I'm just saying we made it to the win, we should have a bit of class and not dogpile on the QB because his stat line wasn't great. His stat lines weren't great for almost his entire pro career, but this time, we got a win. Give him a breather.  The team cleared the bar. In the end, that's all that matters. Do it enough times and well, good things happen.  We've shat the bed enough times with good-ish QB play. It's not like we've been regularly to the playoffs even with our best performing QBs over the years. Heck, Matt Stafford was a helluva QB in Detroit for a long time with nothing to show for it. Steve Bartowski was a great QB back in the day, but in 20 years of watching I saw one playoff game for the Falcons. Heck, even Dan Marino spent most of his illustrious career on a lousy Dolphins team.  And yet, Tampa's first Superbowl ring was with the esteemed Trent Dilfer at the helm. Sometimes it goes like that. 
    • I don't care what they tell me. Its what they actually do that matters. Coaches and GM's say crap all the time to keep fan interest. They are always trying to sell you something. 
    • But you have to separate the 2 things in order to move forward.  Its okay to enjoy winning and its also okay to be critical of what is happening.  Coaches do it why cant we?   Also they have to be thinking next off season, next year all in real time.  They are applying what is working, where help is needed and how to get better and make plans for that.   I am weirdly confident that Dan and Dave are seeing what we are seeing and will adjust.   The wildcard however are the teppers
