.....

would have been nice if it showed up.......Williamsm and Stewart had no holes and almost every run was blown up in the backfield. No excuse for it sucking to that degree.......even with teams focused on it.

Our OL is suppose to be a run blocking OL.....if they don't run block then they are a below average NFL line.

What Rivera thought was the biggest strength coming in IMO looks to be one of the biggest weaknesses. Lots of stretches today where it would have been nice to grind out some yards instead of everything being put on Cam's shoulders.

lol get fuged marty hurney...you and everyone else here knows D wills money was better invested in DT or CB. But apparently we had a great running game a couple years ago or something so that;s worth spending millions on

You can't run versus an eight man front so instead of playing Fox ball, trying to run up the middle and getting stuffed, over and over again we aired the ball out. It worked very well and if you take away the three busted plays we would have won the game.

the threat of the run would have take pressure off cam and perhaps have allowed for more production? O-line was horseshit in the run game, period

Carolina isn't the only team not using a FB.....and they get holes (with OLs not built to run block). I think it is a much bigger issue than that.

What then? We basically have the same OL as '09. What is different other than a) abandoning the run WAY too early or b) not utilizing a FB?

Nothing. What other explinations are there?

Double Trouble has run over plenty of 8 man fronts before.......I think the OL just isn't what it was.

2 yrs older. Nothing stays the same.

Fox use to abandon a functioning run game.....Rivera abandon one that flat out wasn't doing anything.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean, no I’m not going to panic when he got 2 Qs and looked great in 1 and looked not great in another (let’s not mention the drop).    Yeah we finally have a team that would be considered average offensively around him. Let’s roll this season.

      The woe is me everything but Bryce sucks mantra is stale af my friend. Look nobody here is going to argue with the fact Frank Reich was not a good head coach. At the same time. Bryce Young is now in his second season with his second coaching staff and a handpicked young offensive head coach who has been known for working with QB's such as Baker and Geno. As far as the offensive pieces around Bryce we have the 4th highest salary cap allocation (that might be even higher now after the new Moton deal) dedicated to the OL in the entire league. We have 2 first round WR's one of them 8th overall the first time we've ever selected a WR that high in franchise history. And the fact of the matter is Bryce Young did not have a good preseason. It's not the first time it's happened either. We all hope to see he and the rest of the team flip a switch in week 1. But we should all be able to agree that the offensive performances we've seen from the entire QB room (Bryce included) in preseason was simply unacceptable.

      We have seen Bryce play… what… 9 games with AT BEST what one would consider NFL average WRs? You just can’t see the forest for the trees and keep going back to your lazy take of revisionist history.    he looked AWFUL Y1 with the worst coaching I’ve ever seen in the NFL and one of the weakest WR rooms I can recall. He looked awful first half of y2 and great second half of y2 with average coaching and average skill position. I don’t know where this elite talent argument even comes from.
