Looks like Luvu was a better pass-rusher and younger, but Josey can still tackle well.

Luvu was the 12th worst at coverage allowing 74% of passes to be caught.  He should bring more balance but is older being 29.  He is also familiar with Evero's defense.

If Evero approves I'm alright with it.

He's 29 though so we're just plugging in what we can until we can reload with another draft next year.

Yeah he is 2 years older than Luvu.  Luvu was plan A, but he went with Washington so this looks like plan B.

I wonder if that's true. Evero seems to be making the run his priority which I think gives a slight nod to Jewell. 

We are going to suck rushing off the edge this year, but if Horn can stay healthy the defense can be serviceable with a very stout run defense and a lockdown corner that can take the best WR out of the game. Really need to hit on a DE/OLB in FA or draft

Luvu was a pass-rush OLB that had to step inside due to injuries. He was out of place and still made an impact, covereage or not.

      The meat and potatoes: Out of 30 qualifying QBs in Week 1, Young ranked: Dead last in EPA (-0.60) Dead last in success rate (20%) Dead last in Y/A at 3.6 Dead last in passer rating at 27.5 How are you averaging just 3.6 Y/A on unpressured dropbacks in the first half of a game? Thinking back to that halftime deficit, I’m reminded of this stat: The Panthers led at halftime in three of Young’s 12 starts last year. They are now 0 for 1 this year. In his 29 career starts, the Panthers have led at halftime in 5 of 29 (17%). Since 2000, there have been 37 QBs to start at least 25 games in their first two years in the NFL. Young is the ONLY QB to lead at halftime in fewer than six of his starts. Young is the ONLY QB to lead at halftime in fewer than 20% of his starts. So many people were backing Young based on the super small sample at the end of the year when they thought he played better, and he did play moderately better. But even in those games, he delivered average stats against the NFL’s easiest schedule of pass defenses to close the year, with every opponent ranking 20th or worse. There’s never been a QB who rebounded from performance like Young delivered in his first couple of years to go on to become a franchise quarterback. Some stay around as a journeyman, but they don’t lead teams. The Panthers put all their eggs in the Young basket this offseason. The Panthers were the darlings to win the NFC South by many. Yes, it’s only one game, and there certainly are opportunities to improve.   The opportunity is to start someone else at QB.   I don’t want to see anymore debate in whether Bryce is the worst QB ever.  Especially not the worst #1 overall pick ever.  What a fuging bust.
