it's called knowing the playbook and reading the defense.

Considering only around 60-70 people in the league have the Panthers playbook...that wouldn't common knowledge. Also if you don't play football or drool over it, I wouldn't expect it to be common knowledge.

I'm sorry, while I understand what you are trying to say...I don't think it is common knowledge on how to read a defense or we'd all be playing or coaching in the NFL. :lurk5:

ummm...i know it might sound technical to some people, but that stuff if pretty common knowledge.

it's called knowing the playbook and reading the defense.

I knew there was going to be at least one snarky response to this...

Learning how to make reads like this is not in any playbook and it's not "common knowledge". Have you ever actually seen a playbook?

knowing the playbook, as in any rb (or any position for that matter) knowing his own team's playbook.

there might be a handful of different defenses...they just have different looks and teeks to them.

that's why team's study film. to figure out those looks and quirks so they can recognize them come gametime.

as far as being able to execute during gametime, that's where the talent and skill come in. if you don't have those, it doesn't matter what you know.

Anyone else notice that when he was talking about the WR's getting out and blocking for them he mentioned Smith and LaFell? Nothing about Jarrett.

Yup, very interesting... but he was talking about it in the context of LaFell being a receiving threat, not LaFell as a blocker.

    • I saw Brooks maybe a few weeks ago, he was walking pretty normally. of course he wasnt running, jumping and cutting.
    • So you believe that Levis had a better day throwing deep because one of those was a TDs? Asking for clarity on that as it was already clearly demonstrated that Bryce would've had a TD had Moore not dropped it in the back of the end zone. The entire purpose of their metric is to look at the throw and grade that because the QB has complete control over it. That was made abundantly clear from the video provided prior to that. Nobody is trying to manifest him as a top-10 player. He had performances during his return from benching that measured in the top-10 in different metrics. The issue at play is that because those stats support Bryce's progress (and refutes that his ceiling is his floor), that you and other people that don't care for Bryce being the Panthers' QB are going out of your way to either a) ignore factual data, or b) cast uncertainty on the methodology. There's no actual interest in stats and facts like as you mentioned previously. All of the non-PFF info, like passing yards in a single game, is also not entirely reliant on the QB. That's one of the points that Jimmy has hammered home but y'all continue to try and sidestep: that the ability to throw deep relies more on elements like timing rather than physically having a howitzer for an arm. Yes, arm strength does play a role but let's not be coy: the entire narrative that Bryce is not a capable deep ball thrower is 100% rooted in the same reasoning that folks had for thinking he wouldn't survive an NFL hit... bro is too smol. We have plenty of data (AND film) that show this. Whether or not the people that don't want it to be true stop clinging to what they want to believe instead is up to them.
    • This isn’t a bad deal for the right people. Sure not everyone has that kind of money to burn. But $10k for everything including all travel (that includes a private flight), lodging, meals, tix to the game? Meeting former players? It’s a lot of logistics that if done solo would take a lot of time to coordinate. When I was younger I spent my time to save money, and now I spend my money to save time.
