This guy thinks we go Defense first Pick

...and I'm hoping Fairley keeps his # 90 when he gets here so I can have the nameplate swapped out on my Peppers jersey by the Panthers team store for $40.

That would be a great way to recycle all those now useless Peppers jerseys. I was hoping last year Hardy would change his number to 90 for the same reason. LOL

the fact that they were on the field twice as long as the offense and didn't allow 50 points to be scored every game.

Defense was on the field around 5 minutes longer per game

we gave up a hell of alot of points, were terrible against the run, couldn't sack anyone (except Johnson)

Couple of bright spots but otherwise mediocre at best

I'd like for you to show me something thats says you didn't just make all that up.

The defense spent an enormous amount of time on the field week in and week out and finished the season 18th overall (we were 32nd in total offense fyi).

Not bad for a young unit who had to carry the team week in and week out.

also they gave up a lot of points because the opposing offense's starting field position was always close to the 50 each drive because we were constantly punting from within our own 20.

My normal response is go google it yourself asswipe. But since I'm in a good mood.

1) Offense on the field for 27:24 per game. Not good but hardly double.

http://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/average-time-of-possession-net-of-ot

2) Points allowed = 408 - 7th worst in points allowed. 10th worst in ypg. 2nd worst in TDs allowed rushing

http://www.nfl.com/standings?category=league&sort=OVERALL_PTS_AGAINST&order=desc&colSel=7

2b) However you can correct for time on the field by looking at things like 1st down percentage: 6th worst

http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?offensiveStatisticCategory=null&archive=false&seasonType=REG&defensiveStatisticCategory=RUSHING&d-447263-o=2&conference=null&d-447263-s=RUSHING_FIRST_DOWN_PERCENTAGE&d-447263-n=1&season=2010&qualified=true&Submit=Go&tabSeq=2&role=OPP&d-447263-p=1

3) Sacks: Charles Johnson with a great year. Next best around 100th with 3.5 sacks. We were 20th overall. If the defense is on the field so much it should be higher in sacks and tackles

4) 23rd is rushing defense

http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?archive=false&conference=null&role=OPP&offensiveStatisticCategory=null&defensiveStatisticCategory=RUSHING&season=2010&seasonType=REG&tabSeq=2&qualified=true&Submit=Go

Again some bright spots. Overall well below average.

Good research, but I was mainly referring to the comment about time on the field.

We were 30th in the ToP ratio, as that chart stated.

That builds up and has a tremendous impact on the performance of the defense,especially when the opposing offense spends the entire 2nd half running out the clock..

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
