How many times does Godfrey have to get beat

before Carolina realizes he ain't a NFL S. It has been obvious from day one he just doesn't get what it takes to play the position. Sure, he is a talented kid....but he is no S. Martin is a S and it was obvious from day one.

Every week he is out of position for what is now going on 3 years. The announcers may claim he is having a good season but they don't watch him....they glance at a stat sheet. Godfrey let the ever so slow and garbage TJ Housh get behind him.....

this isn't about being an athlete or talented. He is a horrible S for 3 years in a row.

What have Hudson or Pugh showed you to make you believe they are a better option?

the fact they aren't named Godfrey.

Godfrey is a Fox guy so the job is his for now. Don't be surprised to see Godfrey lose his job when a new coach comes in.

At this rate, they need to sign me off the streets and I will start sunday to replace Godfrey (hell they did it with St Pierre)......Seriously, he is terrible. They are looking at his picks which mostly came from tipped passes not him proactively seeking the ball. He is also out of position. I do like Martin though

If we had a coach that wasn't a lame ass duck (no relation to the lame duck) hed bench the guys that aren't performing. If you can't do you job, you deserve to have splinters in the your ass

Maybe he has. We have a limited number of roster spots. We can't keep 20 safeties while we sort out the one that is perfect. The OP was a whine about Godfrey while he may truly be the best option on the roster. I'll pose the same question to you, What have Hudson or Pugh showed you to make you believe they are a better option?

He takes terrible angles when trying to stop runningbacks, and is often out of position in coverage. That said, I still think he can be a great safety for us. Getting burned by Housh isn't that awful, but he was awfully out of position on that play

for 3 straight years he has been out of position giving up huge plays. Martin has given us hope.....

getting burned by Housh is about as bad as it gets....I guess a TE would be worse but that wouldn't be a WR.

Heap burned Godfrey on that play that Fox unsuccessfully challenged.

It should have always been Martin/Harris at S ever since that Arizona game :rant:

Godfrey is like a young athlete version of Chris Harris.....only he makes Chris Harris look good in coverage.

Its not about the better option. Sometimes you bench guys when they under perform. it happens all the time

why isnt it about the better option? why in the world would you bench your best player at the position. i mean i can understand replacing him with someone better if you think he is a liability. but to bench him when he is the best option we have at this time, just to do it doesnt make since. smitty has under performed a fiew times this year, with that logic so we bench him in and put in AE at wr?

      Who will blow it Sunday?

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      BPA comes with the caveat of positional value and roster need included. Never let the latter two completely overwhelm the first, however. Our FO seems to lean heavily into "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE POTENTIALZ!!!" as a fourth category and often it seems as the #1 overall pursuit. With as many needs as this roster has, I am not going to get upset over a real roster upgrade at WR versus some reach at EDGE or whatever other extreme needs we have. Overall, I want to see the roster get better. There is far, far, FAR more than one offseason of work left to get this roster into the top 10-12 in the NFL. That should be the goal.

      I would say we are more likely to get smoked by Tampa, blast Seattle and then perplexingly lose to Tampa again.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      In general, Dave Canales tends to target his TE's the least frequently of any position group(WR/RB/TE) during his three years of running an NFL offense.  However, if you notice this percentage has crept up over time. 2025 is the first year that TE has eclipsed RB in target percentage. Production has also gone up in 2025. This is a percentage of total output in each category. Canales has always used a very TE heavy offense. In fact, on average his offensive formations are 2 or 3 TE sets roughly 80% of all offensive formations. So, the question may be, with this uptick in total TE output, could an elite or top tier TE make a significant impact? I believe there is some evidence this may be the case. Here are a look at TE snaps and Cade Otten specifically. These are the snap percentages for all rostered TE's in every Dave Canales offense. The bolded cell is Cade Otten's whopping 96.46% of total snap counts in the single year he was in the Dave Canales offense in Tampa. This was overwhelmingly his career high. His production was higher with less utilization in 2024, however.    In conclusion, while I don't anticipate ever seeing a top 5 producing/Pro Bowl caliber TE performance in a Dave Canales offense, there does appear to be some evidence that an actual upgrade in our TE room would actually lead to increasing overall offensive efficiency. I think Otten's utilization rate does indicate that the splitting of time between our relatively even TE group would cede significant snaps if a far superior option were available. I believe this is an area we could(and should have this past offseason/draft) made a more concerted effort to get a dynamic TE threat, after the apparent failure that J. Sanders appears to have been.
