Can we talk about the Secondary?

Yeah we lost, and yeah Martin ran all over us, but we held what should end up as a middle of the pack passing game to 128 yards. This might be the last week we're in these rankings, but it is pretty good to see for now.

I mean besides the BS PI call on Norman, the PI on Gamble, the TD pass to Williams, some soft play by Nakamura and the 33 yarder to Clark, the secondary looked great. They're miles ahead of where they were last year at least and even compensated for some of the lackluster pass rush in the first half.

Thoughts?

What is this nonsense about Martin running all over us? His average is 4 yards because of that last 15 yarder but he was at 3.4 practically the entire game which is accurate.

The run defense was actually tested and did pretty well. The secondary is ranked high because they barely threw the ball. In fact 10/16 passes were to the RB/TE/FB. That won't last with Breesus

    • The panthers offense right now is spiritually the same as the 2010s Seahawks. They want to keep it close until the fourth quarter and then try to pull a rabbit out of their hat. instead of running marshawn into the line 30 times a game, we’re throwing 20 passes behind the line of scrimmage. And instead of Russell Wilson bullshit, we’re getting 20 yard drives to set up a 55 yard field goal. Also that team had multiple hall of famers and we’ve got the worst qb in the league by whatever collections of metrics you want to use
    • So if Bryce could have come to Carolina with the same advantages he had every year at Alabama he would have been successful. Good coaches. Top recruiting classes far better than the opposition. Defense able to bail him out if he has a bad game.  Still doesnt change anything regarding footwork, mechanics, drop backs, reading the field, poor placement or any of the other myriad of issues that are still present in year 3.  Bryce wasn't ready to be the day 1 starter. There's nothing wrong with that. Dalton was clearly the more capable QB, as evidenced by what happened in Seattle in the rain, under extreme pressure. Same players, same coach, same terrible offensive line. Two different offenses.  When you look at Bryce and what he's done in game over the course of 3 years it's not pretty. He has moments of good, but there's been a lot more WTF. But saying Bryce would have been able to lead a team to the playoffs? Based on what we saw from him, he probably would have spent a good bit of year one on the bench holding a clipboard. 
    • Feels on brand for Mike Brown.  He's very anti trade.
