I love to go to http://ussportspages.com and read the papers after a Panther's win! But these writers are ragging the bucs about every aspect of the game - awesome!!!

KEY DECISION

It was made sometime last week, inside the Panthers meeting rooms, most likely by Panthers offensive coordinator Jeff Davidson. Ignoring the fact that the Bucs had held his runners to just 40 yards the last time they faced them, Davidson and his fellow Carolina coaches decided to attack the Bucs up the middle, where Jovan Haye was missing and Ryan Sims was filling in. It proved to be a master stroke. Sure, the Bucs lost this game largely because of their poor tackling, but it was the Panthers ability to penetrate the middle of the Bucs line with speed and power that got them started on those runs.

:rolleyes:

Whenever the Panthers run it down someone's throat it's because of "poor tackling"

Why isn't it because the Panther's backs were BREAKING tackles?

I'm tired of hearing it.

It was poor tackling against Oakland

It was poor tackling against Detroit

Now it's poor tackling against Tampa

For poor tackling go watch the Browns defense. That's some poor tackling. Williams and Stewart simply beat their asses.

If you heard Grudens press conference or read the players quotes after the game they told it like it was:

poor play by the Bucs D

poor tackling

poor gap play

great play by the Panthers

Our press can't find a fact...in fact they make some up.

Did we have some good stiff arms? Yes. Did we have some great moves? Hell yes. But god god yes they tackled poorly. D-Lo got out of so many when he should have been brought down. We kicked their asses, but they're right about many plays. It's just like when we tackle poorly. It costs us dearly and it cost them dearly.

    • What you are saying isn't always true and I'll give you several examples to demonstrate this. 1) The best player on the board at the end of in round 1 by all consensus is RB (top 15 player in draft who slips b/c of the devaluation of the RB position). Your team is in desperate need of a LT because the current one is getting your QB killed. You already have a serviceable RB in place. The LT has a 2nd round grade and you have the first pick on day 2 of the draft Who do you choose? 2) Your run defense was abysmal the previous season. A DT in round 2 does not provide much in terms of pass rush, but most reports have him rated as the best pure run stuffing DT in the draft. The two highest rated players on your board at the time are a TE and tweener at OLB/DE who slipped into round 2 after a run on WR's. Who do you choose? 3) Your pass rush rush is solid across the board. You even have guy coming off of the bench to provide production. Your secondary in below average. No Safety on the roster is a difference maker and as a unit the squad doesn't have an INT. The highest rated player on the board is a DE. The 5th highest rated player on the board is a an intelligent ball hawking Safety. Which player would make the team immediately better?  1) I think the BPA logic applies when your team is solid across the board and you can afford to draft for depth 2) I think it also applies when your team stinks and any solid player will be an immediate upgrade over what you already have. I agree that you should NEVER reach for a player when you are need at a position like we did for Bryce Young. But I also think if there's is a player on the board that will fill a glaring weakness you need to take him even if a player with a higher over all ranking is available at another position (which isn't a need)  
    • Bryce Young excels at dividing Panthers fans. That seems to be what he's best at.
    • 184 yards game, 61% completion 11 tds 5ints    thats ranks :check notes:  25th in the nfl
