the development of jeff otah

looks like a lot of people had high hopes for jeff this season. i saw some when asked, thought he'd have a pro bowl kind of season in his second season with the panthers. while he's been great in the run game he's been borderline horrible in the passing game. he often looks like he has lead feet when forced to pass block. it also seems like atleast once a game,he's rolling around on the ground with some phantom knee or leg problem that makes us all go oh no not again.what does the future hold for jeff and is he still on the upswing?

well he's on IR now, so we'll never know if he would've been pro-bowl-worthy or not. also, most fans aren't trained enough to be able to judge the caliber of an offensive lineman unless that lineman is unbelievably dominant.

he false starts a lot, so that's definitely a problem, and he does have pass protection problems - an area schwartz was definitely much improved in. run-blocking though... the man is an absolute steamroller... hard to argue with that. it's one of the reasons our run game has been so dominant.

He was midseason All-Pro for Peter King. Apparently the rest of the league disagrees with you as he is seen as one of the best RTs in the game.

He had some false starts, thats about it. I think he confusing Vincent with the holding calls and letting his man beat him for sacks

Otah was on some all-pro stuff before the injury

otah had 6 false starts, 0 holding, 5 sacks allowed.

sorry....not really seeing that as a weak point there. it isn't perfect but for a sophomore on a team with huge offensive problems for most of the year...i'd say he did pretty well.

phantom injuries? rolling on the ground? how often was that really seen? lol.

he hasnt completed a full season. and if u watch all the games like i do, u'd see he goes down more than the rest of the lineman(tho he gets back up most of the time) on the team.

I noticed that D'Brickashaw Ferguson was added to the pro bowl for the AFC this year. Here was his stat line- 16 games played, 8 penalties for 60 yards, 5 false starts, 2 holding penalties, 8 sacks allowed.

Here are Otah numbers- 13 games started, 7 penalties for 35 yards ( 6 false starts, 0 holding, 5 sacks allowed.

Yes he plays right side and Ferguson plays left side. Still the stat line by comparison suggests he is doing okay for a second year player.

just sayin...........................

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
