Football Gameplan's 2012 Panthers vs Bucs Video Preview

Until our WR's prove otherwise, TB does have a better corps. Calling the QB's even on the other hand is dumb, Freeman is awful, he had one fluke of a good year and has been pedestrian to awful all the others. I also don't think that our interior line is a question mark at this point, it has been vastly upgraded just by virtue of Ron Edwards coming back from injury and the Dwan pick up. Also, Tampa's linebackers are no where close to the level of the Panthers.

Overall, not your strongest video.

Thanks Gang! Two things

1. You have to take numbers out of the equation and see that Freeman has tremendous talent. And if you add the numbers in the situation, you can see that Freeman has tremendous talent

2. Tampa's LBs are not getting help because of zero help from their interior DL. Talent-wise, they're pretty good

1. What the fug did you just say?

2. Ohh cool, subjective analysis. "Well I know that they don't look good, but they really are. Honest!"

Look at it this way... Would you say that you guys were a bad team last year? The record would say Yes, the talent would say No.

Now, Cleveland......

Overall yes, the sum of the parts was a bad team. Breaking it down though, it was really the defense and special teams that were awful. Defense was destroyed by injury, so unless you're trying to say that Connors performance last year makes people think that Beason is bad...or something....

Good video as usual. Gotta agree with the concensus that Carolina's LB corps is head and shoulders above Tampa's. But I don't think this game is about talent as much as it's about schemes. This will show the NFL what kind of coach Schiano is, and if he comes out and plays Foxball, we'll wipe the floor with them. If he has some spring in his loafers, it'll be a good game.

    • I get what you’re saying but the reason I think his mentality underscores it all is that he did have legitimately solid and sometimes even good games at the end of last year after his bench, and against some good teams (PHI, Tampa, KC)   but that was only after the season was shot and everyone thought he was done for. then once he had to play a meaningful game on Sunday he crumbled right back to pre bench form. It’s like he’s only able to when it *doesnt* matter  But all just semantics tbh, we both agree that he ain’t it lol
    • I'm still a big Bryce supporter. I don't look much at his rookie year as that only deepened the hole he has to climb out of. I see this past game as the 1st of his 2nd year.  Judge him based off of his play after his benching.  No argument that is play those first two games last year were about as bad as it gets.  No question. This is the start of year 2 for Canales and he was out coaches against the Jags but I like his process and how he goes about things.  I like that he, Morgan and Tillis seem like a unit and on the same path. Saying we never should have drafted him based on his height and weight is a valid opinion but he was a universal top pick in the draft and elite talent coming out.  I have seen little evidence those are still issues.  He is physical enough to take some monster hits and I don't see a limit to his passing due to his height. The lack of arm strength is a tired argument.  He has the physical ability to make all the necessary NFL throws.   Of course he doesn't have the cannon Cam did coming out but he also doesn't have Cams accuracy and throwing with touch issues.  They are different players and Bryce has a ton of work to do just to be in Cams shadow. Bryce IS part of the problem but he isn't the problem.  His play the last half of the season last year was impressive and showed a ton of growth and improvement. Outside of Horn, Nola and Chuba the whole team and staff looked severely off and not ready.   If Dave calls a great game and other players play average NFL level football and Bryce still plays like this that is when we'll actually have as big an issue at QB as the haters believe. The issues are team wide and it's one game. Also, I like Tepper.
    • They aren't credited with drops.   That's just PFF.  Not sure why they are still being pimped this hard when week 1 really highlights how bad they can be at times.  Especially when they manufactured Bryce's grade like they did.  Some 1984 stuff going on there....PFF telling folks not to believe their eyes and ears.
