The Defense did good today

I don't believe this has been brought up yet, but I thought the Panthers defense played an excellent game today, the Packers offense is no joke and we held them off for the most part for the majority of the game.

And they didn't give up a TD on any of the 4 turnovers on offense, they kept the game close and gave us the chance to win, also another great game from CJ and Gamble.

Aside from that big chunk starks ripped off, I thought run defense was overall acceptable.

CJ is bringing the funk these past 2 games. One of the better bull rush's I've seen. Gamble playing well too like stated. good to see. We just become real weak in the secondary once we go to nickel package. Pugh doesnt look ready.

Its funny you go into preseason worried about Cam, then you go into the regular season worried about the defense. Now we are 2 games in and we are questioning the one thing we thought we were pretty strong at, the run game. Ah well, I'm confident we will fix the mistakes.

I've always thought the defense will do well eventually, Rivera is probably the best DC of the last 5-6 years and I just can't see us having a bad D long term or past this season.

offense with cam has been looking pretty good(understatement I know) but yeah pretty much I'm concerned about the run game, I thought we passed too much last week and again this week.

I also think unless it's a boot leg that has a lot of space on it or a goal line play I would rather not see newton run, every time I do I think he's going to get injured and that's the last thing that we need to happen. he should not have anymore planned runs.

    • Why not? Dude was tough as nails. Came off the field after a vicious hit and showed the coach how his ring finger was knocked out of socket halfway up. You could see the shock on Fox's face. Brad just  pulled  on the finger, grimaced, got it back in alignment and went back in for the next play and blew up an opposing linebacker or two. Dude is legendary.
    • Motown let on like he'd like to play at least another 5 years in his presser. I fell he was truthful and us fans over did his knee. The guy started like 108 starts in a row and only missed like 2 games over each of the past years.  I think as long as the team agrees with his value that Motown has, he will sign another contract extension to push the void years into the 2030s.  OLmen can play at high levels up til 40. Trent williams is doing it, Richie Incognito leftd and came back to play until he hit 38. Lane Johnson is still playing at a top level while 38. You member Greg Van Roten, he's somehow still playing at 36 and he started here after being a substitute teacher years before. If you are able to get over the 32 year bump, its possible to reach 38 with luck. Colleges do a poor job of preparing new OLmen, many times that vet is better.   Rams were begging Andrew Whitworth to come back while he was 39, if you got the genes, luck and still willing to put in the hard work....it is possible to play until 38 as a OLmen*starting level*
    • Shaq was a fantastic LB, he just happened to have been standing in the shadow of a Panthers great and a Hall of Famer. He was team-lead starter quality for all 32 teams of the NFL. Don't throw shade on him, he was never just a guy.
