Grade The Panthers: Bengals Game


Skew

Recommended Posts

QB: D+ (better than Moore, but that's not saying much; fumble)

RB: C (still blame Davidson and OL for poor performance; fumble)

WR: C+ (improvement over last week)

OL: F (these guy can't pass block or run block consistantly)

DL: C+ (better pressure for 4 quarters than last week)

LB: B (as Kurb said to me during the game, you can build a team around Beason)

DB: B+ (much improvement over last week with the INTs and coverage)

ST: B (again, better than last week; no turnovers, but no big plays either)

Coaching: D- (do I really need to make a comment?)

Overall: D-

Overall: D-

only one I disagree with is LB and DB, I believe DB should be a B- and LB should be a C (LB could not get off blocks on the screen passes)

QB - C- (Did ok, considering what he had to work with. At no moment did I slap my face and say WTF ARE YOU DOING like when Moore was in there the past two games)

RBs - C+ (Deangelo did better than the previous two games, Stewart did not.)

WRs - C (Gettis played relatively well, Lafell had 1 nice catch, but shoulda made the catch in the end zone. Smitty was Smitty when Jimmy finally started throwing him the ball)

OL - F- (Seriously Kalil, those two botched snaps were all on him....the first was up in Jimmy's chest instead of his hands, the second barely made it to Jimmy's fingertips. Blocking was terrible overall too)

DL - B- (Yay, a DLman got a sack. Decent pressure most of the night, good run defense early in the game. Broke down though.)

LBs - C+ (Anderson F'd up big on Benson's TD reception. Overall not great by the LB corps)

DBs - B (Did pretty decently against 2 elite (but aging) WRs. Had about 2 or 3 fewer INTs than they should have...)

Special Teams - B (Cosby couldn't return for poo against them, and Goodson did ok overall)

Coaching - F- (I almost want to take away the minus because they actually looked better in the second half than first, but then I remember there was only like 15 rushes in the game total and the gameplanning in general seemed to suck)

Overall - D (Overall offense looked like it has the ability to grow, but not until the O-line gets their poo straight. Maybe it's the lack of Otah, I dunno. Defense looked pretty good for the most part, considering the field position they were constantly dealing with).

    • Coaches can't mentor, they coach, they are two entirely different things, and your coaches can also only do so many things at one time.  When they're running a drill, the vets are pulling the young guys aside after their reps and giving tips while waiting for the drill to reset. You do also realize that for the most part, players are only around the coaches in the film room and on the field, coaches aren't in the locker room other than just before the game and at half.  That's another place someone like Thielen shines, he's always been a pro's pro, he's going to take these young WRs under his wing and team them how you go about being an NFL player. That's not stuff coaches do, you NEED the vets for it and Thielen has embraced the role.  When you have a guy who made his career on doing the little things right, and he is willing to be that vet mentor to a group of young WRs in their 1st or 2nd year that you hope to be your future 1-4, then he's worth every penny we're giving him this year.
    • Why in Minnesota? That's bizarre. Not like we have a vet WR who played his college ball and the majority of his NFL ball in Minnesota that a few room temperature IQ Panthers fans want to poo on who was obviously brought in every bit as much to mentor young WRs as much as he was to play who has still managed to put up decent numbers in awful offenses in the twilight of his career. Anyone who thinks the Panthers haven't gotten everything out of Thielen that they signed up for shouldn't be taken seriously.
