Adam Schein's Preseason Myths (Myth = Panthers are Good)


Recommended Posts

Sacks and Johnson...

First off its hard as hell to get sacks in a football game when your playing from behind most of the time over the past 2 seasons. When a team has a lead on you, they tens to run more than pass. This limits the chances for sacks.

With that said, Johnson is not Peppers, however, he is young and getting better every year and has had no support on the oppisite side of the line. Hardy was banged up last year after his bike accident and it showed early on. He improved later in the season.

Hardy showed youth and lack of expierencae last season. He was in the back field almost as much as Johnson if not more. But several times was out of place to make a move on the QB. He tends to go to deep in the back field. This will get better with time.

If my memory serves corretly, was hardy not a 6th or 7th round pick?

While I disagree, I can see where Schein is coming from. We're not a perennial bad joke like the Browns or Skins, but unless you really follow the team and dig into our games last season all you're going to see is a 6 win team that added a WLB and a RB/FB.

The Saints* are a power house.

The Falcons are good (until they reach the playoffs, anyways).

Tampa Bay will improve and added some high profile pieces.

Personally, if everything goes well, I think we eek out the Falcons for a wild-card spot.

    • I look at it like get on top of the situation. Stay ahead of it. If it costs you a year of not drafting a starter at number three WR in the first so be it. We need new blood there in 2027 if not 2026, and need to get some OL on rookie deals.   At the same time the big picture is considered, we have a QB that has yet to earn an extension and you can go glass half full if you want but he had about half the good games that he needed to have. Fewer, IMO, but the point is he is not a lock to earn an extension.    Which would really put next year’s number one in play for QB and take OT off the table. So I think it needs to be on the table this year.  
    • Feels like they just changed like 2 years ago.
    • https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-offensive-line-success-why-building-through-the-nfl-draft-is-the-key   Conclusions drawn This article took a deep dive into evaluating recent offensive line trends regarding the draft and free agency while incorporating team success into the equation. Here are the biggest takeaways:   The best offensive lines in football (PHI, DET, TB) were built through the draft in the early rounds Other teams (most notably LAC) are following the same approach in team building Offensive line is something a team should target in the early rounds (1-3), as the success rate significantly declines in the later rounds both in the short and long-term Offensive tackles have a higher success rate through the draft than interior offensive linemen, regardless of round Acquiring free agent offensive line does have its benefits, particularly for elite units filling one hole. Interior offensive is typically the way to go Top-end offensive line talent is far less likely to be available via trade or free agency compared to other positions year to year, only emphasizing the importance of the draft   My words: we were forced to make some big signings on interior after years of poor OL drafting and neglect. It worked but isnt sustainable. We need to get right. Drafting tackles high is a successful formula. We need to start now to have any hope going forward.
