if you take out the 1 play to Stewart where they forget to account for him.

he still stared down and threw to his first read on almost every single throw. also, he consistantly showed no ability to grasp the playclock situation during many points in the game.....which hurt us late. A lot of time was burnt off the clock....even if he completed the pass there would have been no time to spike the ball on the throw to Jarrett....he gave us no chance at the end. That is scenario rookies should grasp b/c it is no different than college or even high school situations late in games. He struggled getting Smith the ball.

he didn't turn it over which is a positive.

Really, you can't expect much more from a rookie making his second start in that environment. JC missed a few throws, but he will learn as he goes.

I sure wish Davidson would help him out a little bit with the play calling though. For instance, they ran a screen for a nice gain on the first play of the game, but they never ran another one that I can remember. More of that would certainly help JC and the O-line against an aggressive defense.

he scaned the field well, i don't know where you get he staired down anyone...not targetting Smitty my be the saving grace...we all complain about how the QB's focus on one guy...Smitty; we have one now that doesn't and its a bad thing????? I'm lost

BTW, DJ sucks

BTW2, Gettis, for the last two games has looked better than the aging / fragile...Smitty

HATE ON!

about Smith:

they were trying to get him involved. I guarantee he gets another 2-3 balls thrown his way if he doesn't get injured.

I really liked that they were working to get him involved even on short plays.

The thing is, in the past Panthers QBs had the time to let Smith get open, because he will with time. However, Clausen almost NEVER has a pocket to work in, which negates a lot of Smith's speed and allows coverage to blanket him.

We desperately need Otah back.

Could of been much worst. Needs to work on his game management skills but no turnovers or huge mistakes makes it a good 2nd start for a rookie QB. Of course it's not like he was throwing the ball all over the place either.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
