Worst secondary in the league?

They only ran the ball on consecutive downs once all game. I think our secondary is far from trash. We could definitely be making more plays with about the 15th drop int of the year today. The pressure was stout and we gave many different looks up front and blitz packages. Don't worry people, we hopefully get healthy these next two weeks and put on a show to whoever comes to our house. I thought we did well under the circumstances, and totally shutting down Denver the other week proves we are capable of defending the pass and getting pressure. I am more concerned about a team that actually runs the ball, the Saints were decent running today but were too ignorant to keep at it. This is by far the best Panther team and I could see an Indy matchup coming.

12-4 is awesome and I'm beyond happy, but giving up leads in our last two games concerns me. Need to be perfect to make it to the Super Bowl.

Not true. The part that's been working has to keep working,, and the parts that haven't been need to pick it up for a few weeks. It really about putting it all together for a few games in a row.

Its certainly an issue. My primary concern is Lewis and Kemo. We need them to get back and be healthy and that will help (but not solve) our defensive problems.

But for today, its all about enjoying the win.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
