More Pressure From Carolina D


ClarkCam

Recommended Posts

James Anderson went on record to say that he believes Sean McDermott will be calling more blitz plays this upcoming season, especially with the lockout not effecting the upcoming training camp. Andersen went on to say that he believed "just about everyone" would be going after the quarterback. Keuchly not exactly known for his pass rush ability...Just thought I'd throw that in.

No one on our roster is known for going after the QB....

Fox was a front 4 pressure guy at the end and Rivera bluntly said with injuries they couldn't afford to go after the QB last year.

A far as Luke goes.....he asked to go after the QB at BC. Wasn't asked bc he was responsible for being the D essentially. He is like Beason in that he is good enough when comfortable in a scheme.....should be able to do it all

This was the plan last year, until the injuries started to pile up. Rivera had little choice but to either go conservative and try to build a winning ethic into his young team, or roll the dice and allow his undermanned squad try to execute a very risky scheme. He chose the former...primarily because of his LB situation and two rookies at DT. This year, barring another injury avalanche, the Panther D will be much more aggressive.

Which is why we will definitely take a CB in the first two rounds. With Capt'n playing the #2 CB position, he will often be on an island when we blitz....and he will get burned.

Or you could say we will definitely take a D-linemen to create pass rush of some sort so the CB's can be more productive. Either way, I hope its' a DL or CB in the first two rounds.

    • yeah, now it's going to get awkward.  The team circles pay attention to all this stuff.  All the wives and girlfriends see the posts.  They all talk like everyone.  Football is just a normal world outside of the fact they play a game for lots of money.  Gossip travels. They know the Theilen's want out at this point.  Carolina is now the disappointed failed trade location.    So now AT takes sort of an inhouse hit in Carolina IMO  
    • Ummm... The dude looked like he was about 180 pounds soaking wet with us (I don't care what his listed weight was/is) - he would have been destroyed in the run game even more than our current and past crappy ILBs. The problem is we primarily play 3-4 or nickel/dime - there is little room on the field for him because he isnt an edge LB blitzer and he can't cover for crap. The only thing he can do kind of well is be an in-the-box safety that can try and beat blockers to the spot because of his athleticism. Washington was able to make him work last year because they used him solely as an in-the-box safety and almost exclusively ran a single high FS. The funny thing is they had good yards/game stats against the pass despite most of their secondary having embarrassingly low PFF grades. Washington was also terrible against the run, which might explain why they gave up so few yards passing.
    • Just get the deal done. We've teased it so much that the Thielen's expect it. Now we run the risk of our veteran WR locker room presence becoming disgruntled. Just take what we can get, make him happy, and get future assets while freeing up snaps for guys who will be here beyond this season.
