DEFENSE

Passing: #4 at 193 yards/game

Rushing: #26 at 130.4 yards/game

Turnovers: #4 at 30 total. 19 Picks, 11 Forced Fumbles

OFFENSE

Passing: #28 at 177 yards/game

Rushing: #3 at 148.1 yards/game

Giveaways: #4 at 31, 20 ints, 11 fumbles

SPECIAL TEAMS

-Kickoffs/Kick Returns-

We average 19.8 yards/return, ranked #31. Pathetic.

We allow an average of 26.5 yards/return, ranked #32. Even more pathetic.

-Punting/Punt Returns-

We average 8.7 yards/return, ranked #15

We allow an average of 11.3 yards per return, ranked #31.

-----

If we don't do something about our special teams we're in trouble. I hate taking a deep breath every time we punt. Explosive punt/kick return guys are becoming more and more common, and not only can we not return for poo, the coverage is absolutely pathetic. I didn't realize how fuging terrible it was until I saw the stats. /facepalm

On the defensive side of the ball I couldn't be any happier about it. Could use a little improvements here and there, but overall I'm insanely impressed with the increased level of play we've seen out of them.

Offense troubles are obvious with QB, hopefully we can add an additional WR over the off season. Run game is perfect.

Posted a thread earlier about Carolina's takeaways, but figured I'd make a more in depth post about things =P

We are thirty second in allowed kick return yardage... we have a kicker that is taking up a slot that is suppose to be putting the kick in the endzone about evetry kick... Fox has lost his GDamn mind.

That has very little to do with Loyd. Countless times he kicks it very near or in the endzone, but the returner will just return it because he knows he has a decnet chance at good return, becuase our coverage sucks.

Not saying that our special teams are that great, but you need to look at where the opposition starts their drives on average. As a lot of teams who give up slightly less yardage, also do not kick it as far and thus actually give up more ground. So look for our average given up after how far it's been kicked.

In addition your left out the two most important offensive and defensive stats - points given up.

The vikings started I know at least 2 drives at around there 40 yard line. If our D didn't play the best game I have ever seen we would have easily lost this one. It took our offense most of the 1st half to get going.

I am aware of that, just wanted to point out the better way of analyzing the stats.

Sorry, here are the points for/against stats.

DEFENSE

20.6 points per game allowed at #17.

OFFENSE

17.9 points per game at #20

If you've seen special teams play, you don't even need stats to analyze it. Whether we're kicking it to the end zone or not, our coverage is still pathetic when they take it out.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
