It'd be one thing if just the pass rush was lacking but we can't stop the run either. When you can't stop the run and you can't rush the passer you're cooked. That's the whole ballgame on defense. You absolutely can't afford to suck at both.

Tepper can afford anything lol

We could at least load the box to stop the run, we cannot generate any pass rush, without or with blitzes, every qb is about to get their career highlights against us at this rate

If we could stack the box and stop the run we'd do it. You have to be able to do one or the other. But when an opposing offense can just do whatever they want and keep you off balance you're cooked. You gotta be able to take something away from them

I can't think of a Panthers defense that is as bad as this one. The tackling attempts are painful to watch. The slowness. Zero pass rush. Worst Panthers defense ever? I think so. 

On offense it really comes down to who we are playing. Tight defense in the secondary, good pass rush, good run defense, and we're cooked. Dalton isn't good enough to handle that, and we don't run the ball enough even when it's working. Canales wants to run a lot of his pass plays to try and scheme people open, but the Bears locked him up. That's when you run the ball if you know what's good for you.

I haven't seen anything worse. 

Even expansion teams. I mean maybe the old Saints? The old old Saints with the bags. 

I don't there has been anything this bad for the Panthers not really close. 

I do think it will get marginally better, I mean they stuck Wallace out there and had him making the calls in his first start. A guy can't worry about his own play thinking that much. He probably would be thinking too much without have to make any calls in his first start. 

I have to say, I have been a supporter of him, but his locker room interview pissed me off. He wasn't mad, embarrassed, unhappy, that I could see. And that is what I needed to see.

Our defense is severely lacking in talent, but I'm glad you brought up the incompetence due to inexperience. I should have mentioned that icing on the cake.

Horn was fired up, but he's not exactly what he once was in his prime. Not saying he isn't still young and talented, but he's not exactly the same imo. I like his passion though and he's our best defender.

And Frankie Luvu will likely be named NFC Defensive Player of the Week tomorrow.

He was a monster today…and also completely owns that locker room in DC.

Way bigger loss than Burns.

He didn't want to be here.   Morgan already said that.  We offered him similar sized deal but he was sold on playing with Dan Quinn's scheme.  

But I agree, he is a big loss.  He had soul.

We sold the defense in a last ditch effort so we could throw a ton of money to try and salvage the worst starting QB in the league. Within two games it was a wrap.

I'm done hearing fluff from the GM the coach the players whoever. Bring that poo around here you're going to get nothing but mocked.

And to think within the last week some of these players told fans to take the bags off their heads. They really showed up big for the fans. Trash!

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
