The D-Line...

Pre-game "analysts" seemed to be in consensus regarding our new, young, unproven D-Line without 90...they said it's gonna suck, along with our entire team....BS......I like our chances and I think the young motors are going to play right into Meeks' scheme...I really liked how they looked in week 1, pre-season...exciting times, IMHO....This doesn't happen very often in the NFL..a rebuild that shows the promise of eclipsing the previous season, right off the bat.....Go Panthers....

Those analysts were dumbasses outside of JAckson. KEyshawn and Carter are jokes for analysts and ditka is just there for the name (wait aren't all three???). Anyway, ESPN is a joke. The announcers and color commentators are where they shine. The active reporters for espn are great...but the analysts SUCUCUAKDCJADL;FJDF

hmm... i actually thought Ed Johnson looked the best out there in the limited time he got to play. all i'm sayin' is that if you can get a push up the middle like that with the defensive line this year, you gotta put Beason back at middle linebacker so he can make even more plays than last year.

You never know, Beason may end up back in the middle. Nothing is set in stone yet. The thing is though, it looks like the Panthers really like Connors, and they want him on the field. I don't think he fits anywhere but in the middle though.

Anyway, it looks like we have better depth at DT than anybody thought. Hell, even Nick Hayden got himself a sack, and he looks bigger and stronger to me.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
