1. TE Jordan Matthews: 87.4
2. LG Chandler Zavala: 84.0
3. RT Ricky Lee: 65.0
4. RB Jaden Shirden: 62.0
5. RB Mike Boone: 59.3

Chandler Zavala led all his fellow Panthers linemen with a 81.6 run-blocking grade and a 78.1 pass-blocking grade. The second-year hog molly also played in every one of the unit’s 54 snaps.

Probably the most surprising performance.  That dude was dog poo last year.

Worst of the defense

24. DT Ulumoo Ale: 51.4
25. CB Chau Smith-Wade: 43.8
26. DT T.J. Smith: 42.1
27. DE Junior Aho: 40.0
28. CB Willie Drew: 24.7

UDFA Willie Drew wasn’t as sharp, as he was on the bitter end of the 38-yard touchdown connection between Patriots quarterback Joe Milton III and wideout JaQuae Jackson. That helped him take a 26.0 mark in coverage

Best of the defense

1. OLB Eku Leota: 90.1
2. OLB Luiji Vilain: 89.9
3. ILB Claudin Cherelus: 84.5
4. CB Lamar Jackson: 78.3
5. ILB Jackson Mitchell: 78.0

Leota and Vilain both chalked up a team-leading four pressures. The former also recorded two stops.

Lamar Jackson earned an 86.8 grade in coverage. He allowed one reception (13 yards) over three targets.

He got completely left in the dust but that route was sick for only a few minutes left in the 4th of a preseason game.

    • And really, it should be 4 reasons with the last one being that there were ZERO other offensive weapons on that team in 2024, opposing defenses only had to worry about one player all year long and they constantly double and triple teamed him right off the snap all season.  In 2023, we still had Jacob Cowing who had 90 catches that year and was drafted by the 49ers last year, so teams couldn't just send everyone after T-Mac on every passing down.
    • I wonder if the Hornets view Kon and McNeeley more as forwards and plan to ship off Green/Okogie/Smith for center help. I hope they don’t plan to ship off Sexton as I like what he brings to the team. (2) G - Ball, Mann, Simpson (two-way) (3) G - Sexton, Dinwiddie, Connaughton (3) F - Miller, Knueppel, McNeeley, James (two-way) (3) F - Bridges, Williams, Salaun (3) C - Diabate, Kalkbrenner, Plumlee
    • 3 main reasons he was better in 2023 and none of them concern me for his NFL prospects 1. Totally new coaching staff that was a massive downgrade and had god awful play calling and designs, the entire fan base was ready to run the coaching staff out of town a month into their first season and the play caller ended up getting changed because it was so bad. 2. Along with the staff downgrade, his QB played significantly worse after being the Pac 12 Freshman of the Year in 2023.  Constantly missed T-Mac when he was wide open, lost out on a number of TDs and a good amount of yardage, half the time T-Mac still almost made miraculous catches on the bad passes too. 3. He hurt his ankle over the summer and missed all of fall camp only to return to practice a few days before the season started and I think he had to deal with it all season long and was slightly limping at times mid season too, but kept fighting through it to still be a 1st team All American.
