The thing I notice about this?  Watch Scourton.  The man is going to be a beast in the NFL--no quit.  He runs about 60 yards on this play. And when Love runs back across the field, he takes a great angle.

Nice hustle, certainly. I'd say it was him that really caused the floater to begin with that led to the possible interception in the first place.

As for Jackson, doubt he makes it out of the end zone had he intercepted it. So, to me the only difference is where the ball was spot - due to turnover on downs or the touchback line. Meh...

I’d put Jackson as a solid B player. As a whole, Panthers have one of the best secondaries in the league. He gets burned, but rarely roasted. He’s almost never completely out of position but just lacks the elite physical traits of JC. 

Panthers still struggle getting to the QB. Receivers will eventually get open, it’s just going to happen, and QBs know better than to throw at JC on a scramble drill. 

From where the D was last season, the level of play right now is a minor miracle.

They asked about it and the answer was we play primary zone defense so having Horn shadow changes the whole scheme for everyone. Seattle ran this with Sherman he never switched sides. Evero has almost indirectly mentioned us not having a good enough defense yet from our pass rush to our secondary to leave players in man. So he is using Horn to take away a section of the field and making adjustments around the rest. I’m not sure I 100% agree, but it does make sense and provides a legit reason IMO. 

I definitely dont like it being set in stone, especially when your safeties are pretty weak in coverage.  Its easy to manipulate match ups and have a situation like the Pickens game if the other team has the right type of receiver.

So I think he does play it on certain packages, they just aren’t that common. Yeah I’d like it to me more flexible myself.

Can somebody please tell me what that guy was doing on the missed int? Are his ball skills that bad? That’s embarrassing… he had a pick 6 for 105 yds if he catches that. 

He jumped to catch it so yeah 

I think honestly the wind might have been blowing that hard on that side of the end zone. It looked like it just died before it got to him.

    • I think you mean relevant but they have been fine, the problem is the lack of in game adjustments.  He has also been just decent at recruiting.  Duke having tons of success hurts and just fine isn’t good enough at UNC.  
    • I don't see it as drafting a premium player to sit and wait if Walker gets hurt. We need a legitimate swing T. Unless you have a Sewell or Slater type tackle that is pretty much a sure thing, these guys can need some time to develop year 1 just like a QB ideally should. They all haven't played the elite 5 star talent on the edge. If we think another franchise tackle has dropped to us at 19, you have to pull the trigger. The position is just too damn hard to find. If it's just a "we need a tackle and this guy has a T on the board", yeah, move on, take one in the later rounds. But if that guy is there, let him back up and learn a year, then slide him into LT on year 2 of his rookie deal.  I don't see us being able to offer Walker a multi year contract after a prove it year, pay Moton his final almost fully guaranteed year, Hunt, Lewis a center and do a 50-60m extension for Bryce. The 3 most important positions on the field are QB, blindside tackle (usually LT), and edge rusher. Those are the premium positions that cost the most and are hardest to come by. If a starting caliber talent is there at 19 you have to pull the trigger.  I understand the need for a DT and S. I've been on the C and FS train for years. If we weren't staring at a potential Bryce extension, it'd make the decision a lot easier I think. It's just with all these huge contracts I don't see how we can hedge our bets on being able or even wanting to re-sign Walker, especially if he has a bad year. Icky and BC's injuries really hurt our long term plans.  If no blue chip talent at those 3 key positions are available at 19, by all means pass and draft another position. But I think it's pretty safe to say we don't have a guaranteed lock at any of them right now beyond Phillips, and they have to be somewhat of a priority. 
    • Not completely accurate. I'm sure Roy is lobbying for him and Larry Brown has spoke put in support too. But Hansbrough has made comments pretty critical and hinting at a need for change. Joel Berry has gone a step further and said the standard has not been met. Scott Williams who was a teammate of Hubert's at Carolina has gone all the way and said it's time for a change at head coach.
