and his usage will be intertwined with the safeties' usage.  I kinda see what they might be doing.  Send Moehrig and play Ransom deep, using Wallace covering the TE.  Send Wallace, Moehrig in coverage, Ransom deep.  Send Ransom and Wallace, Moehrig in coverage....Not sure exactly what it will look like, but keeping Horn was important.  He is the shutdown CB that can cover in man.   Jackson may need help over the top, so the need for a free safety that can read the entire field is not necessary; play deep third behind Jackson and the #2 WR.  Just brainstorming--no need for an umbrella when I do that.

This thinking is correct, cover 3 is Evero's preferred coverage, zone blitz underneath. Sliding coverage and moving the blitz and attack point around a lot. You'll see a lot of cover 3 with the box stacked and every down a different player will come even if it's still only a 4 player rush. 

 

But Evero is more known for mixing his coverages up but showing cover 3 pre snap while rolling to cover 2 or cover 4 allowing a safety to blitz off the edge while rolling the OLB on the opposite side into the flat or under edge zone.

We also signed a guy who made 135 tackles last year in 11 starts during free agency. Yes, it was a career year for the guy who bounced around a lot, but you don't make 135 tackles in the NFL sitting on the bench.

We might have more than we think.

Improving the line in front of him should give us a better look at what the young man can really do. Couple that with a year of experience under his belt and I hope he can take off.

Sure would be nice for the linebacking corps here to be league best once again. 

We did set the mark very, very high around here.

Oh the things Panther fans took for granted.

I was thinking the same. Wallace is still pretty raw.

IMO Evero will have no excuses for a bad defense. I believe we have depth at most of our defensive positions.

They keep saying things like "the position is devalued". They say the same things about running backs, strangely enough. Then our like of linebackers give opposing running backs the most historically bad defense to run against in league history.

It sucks when people who don't understand football tell you how football is played in the modern age.

I like how you're just completely glossing over our DL situation last year to attempt to drive home your preferred narrative. LOL

A lot fewer RBs and off the ball LBs get drafted in the first round and land big money deals in the modern NFL. Get triggered by the word "devalued" if you want, but reality is reality.

Wallace has been getting some serious mentoring from TD and a bit from Kuechly as well. Both have been sitting down with him looking at tape. 

Just curious, how did you hear (or read) about Wallace studying with TD and Luke? For him to do that in year 1 shows a real dedication to his craft and could really take his game to a new level over the next couple of years.

I hope so. Morgan definitely showed unspoken faith in Wallace by not drafting a LB. 

I also think he's admitting that the DLine was an abomination last year and not even Kuechly could have thrived behind it.

Oh, I wasn't glossing over anything. You just can't polish a turd, so why even try?

(And let's talk about what might be the real problem with our entire defense... and that guy isn't even on the field -- Evero.)

I'm just saying, the NFL has figured out that you can get by with serviceable off ball LBs behind good DLs. There's always going to be a market for elite guys at every potion but there are certain positions (off ball LB, safety, IOL, RB) where if you don't have an elite guy, the dropoff in terms sof impact on overall unit performance between good and average isn't that big so don't pay for good when average is the far better bargain.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      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.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
