Assuming D. Will is back.

After this past Sunday's passing explosion what are the chances that the Rams are going to continue stacking the box on us?

Sure maybe they think it was a fluke, and they may still want to test us, but if that coach has any common sense, no way is he going to look at a tape where we threw for 308 yards and completely ignore the passing. If they do, I say bring it on.

But my gut tells me some teams, especially teams like the Rams are going to back off a bit now. That's gotta open up our run game. I see them trying a couple of times in the first quarter, but if Montana Moore pulls a repeat and burns them again over a few plays, they will back off for the remainder of the game. That's the first and most important thing. We need to come out passing in the first quarter and re-establish a continuation in our passing thread.

Which brings up the next point. Not wanting to get too far ahead, but this is going to be the key to winning other games going forward. I'm going to give Fox some credit this year and say he has tried a lot of new things with a lot of different personnel. And if we can get that run game going, and continue mixing things up it's going to continue giving other teams a bit of a headache trying to prepare for us.

If the run works this weekend and we win, we'll be yet a completely different team the week after. If we shuffle personnel around some more, it's going to make it even harder for teams to figure us out. We are in a good position of showing different faces and different strategies just about every Sunday keeping the element of surprise on our side. This team's new found flexibility just may be its biggest weapon.

Montana Moore, LOL.. I bet I know whose jock strap you wish you could be

How did I know there would be at least one guy that would read that sentence and that's all he would read. CLT Panther, your originality and humor is out of this world. Have you tried Letterman?

Second reply and the thread is already at risk of being de-railed.

You obivously have not researched the Rams very well ...

We play press man corner on the outside as the majority set ...

According to Stats, LLC, opposing QB's are completing less than 38% of attempts against our corners Fletcher and Bartell when in man ...

I'm just not seeing Matt Moore as the one to buck this trend. He might find better success against our zone blitzes ...

Good luck ....

Fletcher and Bartell? I'm not knocking the corners cuz I've never even heard of them...

But no-name corners vs our no-name recievers...

Our win against the 49ers gave me hope, but this Sunday is going to be a tough test for panthers for sure.

Here's to a good game with no injuries!

Now carry in with your condescending posts!

Nothing condescending. I am concerned deeply about playing the 80's 49'ers led by Montana Moore!

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      I suppose it depends on what you mean as 'elite'. I typically mean someone that can play with lower level pieces around them and still win. There are very few of those.

      The running back situation....

      By frankw · Posted

      It would obviously be incredible if Brooks came back and just ran away with the job on his opportunities like Rico Dowdle did last year. But any Panthers fan that has been around the block knows better than to go ahead and make plans for that. Brooks has missed a ton of not just playing time but meaningful early career growth in a league that has increasingly devalued the position from an investment standpoint beyond one or two superstars. There's really not any comparison to look back on that lines up with the current iteration of the league at least not favorably. The key thing that this RB room has going for them is our investment in the OL. The highest paid OL in the league two years in a row paired with our staff should make it easier for just about any RB to get into open running lanes. But that is also anything but a given considering our OL was largely middle of the pack last year. In the end it might all be a moot point anyways if we again struggle to establish a viable passing attack.

      I don't have him making the team and I think same goes for the staff, but they are hopeful for a PS spot.    I mean of course I'd like 3 all-world at RB and every spot, just doesn't work that why. Panthers normally carry 3. dan always talk up Etienne, even called him a future star.....I think Brooks will be fine as a 2 with health pls.....  Chubba can carry a seasons load as lead dawg.    Its fine, I mean backup OGs or CB is much higher on my worry scale(Id even put QB room as worse than RB room too...)
