Guys are running free in Carolina's secondary all the time. Why don't we ever have guys running free in secondaries?

 

combo of scheme, playcalling and how you stress a defense IMO.  Obviously, there is a talent aspect but I put the greater burden on Canales given how non-existent it was.

Yes and no. Actually last years training camp there were a lot of questions about a lack of deep passes and Bryce Young had a number of miscues that led to us incorrectly assuming our defense was actually decent. At one point Shy Tuttle had a turnover returned for a touchdown. Need I say more?

I do agree joint practices will be the most telling though.

The preseason reporting is almost all fluff and it seems like a gag order has been in place for years now vs pre Rhule takeover. Wearing a red jersey is when his issues are greatly masked and this is year 2 of thr same offense. Even coming off a historically bad rookie year the fluff was thick last year.

Young had way too light of a preseason schedule given where he is as a QB last year.  Canales needs to play Young a lot going into this year.    Holding Bryce out has gone very poorly leading into both his seasons.  Young got less work going in than legit proven studs did.   He needs to have the workload of someone that has had maybe 3 good NFL games and the rest meh or horrible.

I hear you completely. Even after all that and the talk of lack of preseason reps we finally played our starters against the Bills backups and we thought we were confident. We obviously know how that turned out. This year it is best for everyone to temper any expecations until we see the team on the road the first two weeks of the season. The onus is on the Panthers to make believers out of the fanbase.

Vastly different things at play here

and its why Renfrow is going to make this roster.   Renfrow is a master route runner (specifically concepts in the slot) and has to milk every aspect of the game within the game given his disadvantages.   But even here on the outside, he could teach Horn, XL, TMac.  Because running that route like Hunter did would be much more impactful for the youngsters given the over the top threat they pose.

Yeah I don't get guys who have that much to prove not playing. The general approach to the preseason the last 2 years ha not been impressive IMO. Go play the young guys because it's just practice for fugs sake.

Also young doesn't always lead recievers or even throws behind alot
