To make the assumption that a DC knows nothing about offense is asinine.

What do DC's spend countless hours in the film room studying? The other team's defense? Nope. They spend all of their time watching and learning the oppositions offense. In fact, every year they study at least 12 offenses in this league. They take note of what works, what doesn't, strengths and weaknesses.

No, they don't typically have experience in coaching individual offensive positions or implementing the schemes. That's the job of the OC and O Staff. But in terms of what schemes and ideology may fit our personell the best, a DC that has studied a wide variety of NFL offenses in depth may be the ideal choice.

I agree. The same can be said the other way around. There are head coaches that are "offensive minded" and their teams have great defenses.

Ron Rivera's experience as a player and DC will help him pick the best OC for our personnel (and DC too).

      No more mistakes on draft day...

      By Jmac · Posted

      Panthers cannot afford to overlook the defense anymore in the draft. I wouldn't  invest a number number one pick on a QB again in this draft...always a roll of the dice. To many areas of dire need. Choose Dl, Edge or LB for our first round pick. Add another Oline player in the middle rounds. No more PROJECTS or INJURED players please. The QB situation is dicey. Will he ever emerge due to his limited physical abilities or not? They obviously need a plan B on the roster. I hate to say it, but maybe a veteran like Winston for Canales to work with would be an option short term. This season is going down the drain fast.

      Be careful what you wish for

      I did not watch the game just the breakdowns. I haven’t watched any defensive stuff of us.    Obviously did not know that. But no designated Hail Mary thrower, Bryce remains alone at the ‘top’.

      So...Those 2 Point Conversions

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      If we were a top offense, I’d agree but we aren’t so our chance of getting 3 2 pointers is basically 0. There were two calls. Go for 2, which I understand but don’t agree based on our futility, and the actual play call, which was awful both times. Play action fake with a leak out and/or rollout to increase the number of opportunities like a QB run in or multiple targets. We, unfortunately, limited ourselves to one chance and after the first run was stuffed you’d think we wouldn’t do the same thing twice but we did and got the same result.
