My question to you is which of the three were considered the best pass protector?

Oh no doubt Cross was the better pass protector. Icky was the higher ceiling rawer prospect. Cross was also drafted below Neal.

Here is Neal, Icky, and Cross as a distant 3rd. They were skeptical of that air raid fast pace offense at Miss St.

Either way, somethings wrong with him now. He needs to re-focus or something.

He played much better with BC at LG in week 1. Bozeman also struggled recently. I think it’s having a 4th round rookie starting beside them.

Wow. Makes Zavala's performance even worse than I thought.

That’s just me guessing. Bozeman and Icky are struggling because the LG is. Zavala just isn’t ready yet. He missed a lot of TC and preseason.

There is a saying that comes to mind. 

Best laid plans of mice and men. 

There is the....

Want to make God laugh?

Tell him your plans. 

NFL, much like life, doesn't often go the way we want, no matter how well we make decisions,  and no matter our intentions.  

Nobody on the staff invisioned this kind of start.  

While some may want to give up and tank... there is a lot of football left, ND I'm going to continue to enjoy watching our team make plays, players develop, and hopefully win every game they can.

It takes time for offensive lines to gel. We haven't had the same starting 5 for even 2 games.

Losing Brady was bigger than we might think. Now we have two new guards…a rookie at LG and an unknown dude at RG. Throw in a rookie QB and basically new starting WR’s. Losing DJ Moore was huge. TMJ appears to be a 2nd round bust as a rookie WR Mingo got the start in front of him. I also think the Panthers undervalued Foreman. Losing the running game this year has killed this offense.
I also think if Dalton played against Atlanta and Saints the Panthers are 2-1.

Did you not watch the game?  Where was this 3+ scores?

In football, a 17-point deficit is a 3-score deficit. In the English language, “3+” means “3 or more.”

also note that every pass in this garbage-time TD drive that accounted for 75 of those yards was a short throw against Prevent, which is much more impressive than doing it a week ago because reasons

Don’t forget against the 31st out of 32 ranked pass defense coming in with its 2 starting CBs inactive too.

 

Seeing People get excited and point out how much better Dalton did this week vs what Bryce did weeks 1-2 

Is like watching another fan base get excited and thump their chest because their DL got a lot of pressures against our OL.

I will say that it doesn’t make much difference which QB plays, the coach, OL and defense suck bad enough that no one can win a game with this shitwreck
