Beason to start and Munnerlyn to play #2

[rayzor]

too bad.

[Gallagher]

1) One of our linebackers will get a pick on Sunday. All 4 have the ability, provided we can get occasional pressure from the DL.

Fixed that for you.

people are making it sound like we've never had to deal with mike williams before.

if capt can't handle him, then stick norman on him. if that doesn't work...double him up. if the WRs are eating us up in man coverage, move to zone or run a lot of nickel offense.

i'm just not worried. i've got faith in rivera/mcD being more able to deal with it than the bucs being able to dish it out.

I have less faith in McDermott than I do in Capt, what has McDermott done anywhere to prove he is any good at DC?

[jarhead]

Talking about the glass being half full and half empty ...... that's Beason and Capt. For the sake of me I cannot believe we cannot field a better starting cb than Capt

[PhillyB]

I think I'd rather have Munnerlyn on Vincent Jackson

You've got to remember though that he's a blitz-loving DC who has coached Defenses without any Linebackers the last two years. It'd be like John Fox trying to coach the Lions. I think the biggest surprise of this season might be how good McDermont is, given our LB core.

I just can't get over the fact Captain is STILL our starting #2 CB.

What a let down in camp.

Hogan a no show.

Norman hurt for 2/3's of camp.

Cap getting burned as usual.

Well, Am very excited to see this D....

They talked about being aggressive to open up last year. They had all their lbs against AZ and I wasn't impressed with the scheme week 1. granted, little time to install....but Rivera and McD form a scheme stand point need to actually show this talked about aggressive play.

Is it bad I literally threw my phone when I saw Captain was starting? fuging God, I despise Hogan right now.

I think Beason and TD and Kuechly will really help bolster this offense. Not only that, we will have 2 veteran DT's playing in the trenches. There is no way this defense succumbs to the shitty play they did last year.

Its not his fault he is injured (at least so far as we know).

Its the Panthers fault for ignoring the position while overspending at others.

But that is another thread. :)

That's a conversation I could have over 10 beers and a couple of shots I'm sure.

this isn't foxball. we'll adjust/adapt.

Read above your post.... I'm not talking about Foxball. I'm talking about if they are successful at running the ball, the defense is sucked in and if Gamble needs help with VJax (entirely possible), there is only 1 safety to help while the other is in the box.

Should Shiano's goal of running the ball to set up play-action work: adjustments will pertain to stopping the run, and not some exotic scheme to help Munnerlyn who is likely 1on1 getting burnt like toast by Mike Williams...

And yes, I expect us to shut down their run.. Although should they not,

[panther4life]

Normally I can understand or justify the decision's under Rivera/Hurney regime, however in the case of Captain still being our # 2 corner I got nothing aside from they know more than we do mantra but still not a comforting thought. It really bothers me that they have enough faith in Norman to man the outside on 3 receiver sets but yet they don't trust him there on every down. The dude has shown quick closing speed and no major propensity to miss tackles so I see no reason to think he's a liablilty in run support.

As for Beason I trust that they have learned their lesson about allow players back on the field to early.
