I know our run defense is awful, but I think we'll be alright. AP is unreal but Leslie Frazier is a bottom 5 head coach in the NFL. AP has also struggled(well, not struggled but he didn't have historic games lulz) against teams that are statistically worse against the run than we are.

People said this last week and how worried they were about our run D. So I'm going to say the same thing I did last week. Who cares? Worry about limiting turn-overs. We limit turn-overs we win. We turn-over the ball we lose. Let them get 200 yards rushing. If we get 500 overall it won't make a damn difference as long as we capitalize and score touchdowns. The only rushing yards allowed with I'm concerned with are those that come off of our turn overs close to our own redzone. They could get 60 all day, but if they all come off of pics in our own 20 yard line that's all they need to kills us.

There's like one team maybe not even one team that's worse than us

    • I'll say 6. I don't know that we learned a whole lot about this team during preseason that we didn't already know. We didn't play the starters enough to really get a feel for what to expect. We had one good drive against the Browns, one 3-and-out and two 3-and-outs against the Texans. That's an extremely small sample size across 3 games regardless of performance. My camp/preseason takeaways: Jalen Coker might be the best WR on this team and is certainly no worse than #2. Nic Scourton is going to be a good player for us. Possibly very good. Bobby Brown was our best free agent addition and will do more to help the defense than anyone. Jack Plummer isn't an NFL QB. Not even a practice squad guy. Having anyone other than Canales and Evero call plays was a really stupid and pointless idea. Our depth is largely non-existent, especially on defense. The three areas we actually DO have depth are on the OL, in the WR corp. and at RB. I can't fathom why Dan Morgan didn't do more to upgrade ILB during the offseason. We better hope Lathan Ransom steps up at FS because if he doesn't we have a massive hole there. For all the hype surrounding Sanders and Evans, Tommy Tremble is still the best TE on the roster. I'm only slightly less enthusiastic going into the regular season than I was a month ago. I think our starters on offense are solid and we should be pretty good there unless Bryce totally regresses. On defense, we're probably bottom 3rd in the league if 100% healthy and significantly worse than that if injuries become an issue. We badly need at least two of our rookies to become high-level players early (ideally one of the pass rushers + Ransom) and at least 2 of our free agent additions (ideally Moehrig + Bobby Brown) to be significant upgrades over last year. Call me pessimistically optimistic 😆
    • 2010 was worse. Not much worse but worse. 
    • Lol since 2017 the Panthers are 47-85,    Also since 2017 the Giants are 40-91-1   Lol
