Atlanta.

Atlanta is definitely balling. They're setup to seize the #1 seed, which doesn't bode well for the rest of the NFC considering ATL's home success. I don't know how the Falcons Defense will hold up when all of the team's they play against are good (well, except maybe for the automatic bid from the NFC Waste), but that's the exciting about this time of the football season!

Well 2nd in KO average i just realized we have only returned 11 punts all year. Crazy. The defense is 7th in the NFL so i mean we're doing good. If Chicago drops one (which is very likely considering the gauntlet they have to go through) and the Aints drop one we can secure HFA in 12 wins and we have 2 against Carolina.

They're 7th in scoring, but 19th in yards allowed. Yes, I agree that the amount of points the Defense allows is the ultimate barometer. We'll see how it goes.

I'm not making any predictions. I'm just a fan who'll be watching and enjoying.

      Malik Willis anyone

      I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
