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!

      Canales Addresses CB position

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I think they are holding back to see what they have in the young guys, but I think it's a near certainty at some point they will bring someone else in. Right now (assuming we keep 5 CBs which is normal), the top 5 IMO are: 1) Jaycee Horn 2) Mike Jackson 3) Chau Smith-Wade 4) Shemar Bartholomew  5) Akayleb Evans   Obviously Jaycee is the alpha in that room and paid as such. Need him to stay healthy and continue to play at a Pro-Bowl level. Mike Jack did pretty well all things considered last year, and they gave him lower-level starter money. Fair deal for both sides.  Smith-Wade showed some promise as a slot CB. I think low-key he's a lock for the team. Different size and skill set than the other CBs. Shemar Bartholomew was the most sought after waiver claim last preseason. Was 5th CB most and inactive most of last year. Had a few defensive and ST snaps. Nothing of note good or bad but too small a sample size to make any judgment. Akayleb Evans was a 2022 4th Rounder for the Vikings. Has started 19 games (including Week 18 for the Panthers) in his career and played in 43. Was pretty good in 2023 before getting injured and falling down the depth chart last year. There's some other guys on the outside looking in, but until they show more in training camp I dont see anyway they make the 53. And only Jaycee, Mike Jack, and Smith-Wade are locks to make this roster IMO.
