Panthers O Line Thinning Out

Hope Peppers either gets the fug out of Dodge freeing up 17 miilion in cap space or comes in and signs a cap friendly extension.

Doesn't matter now. There really are no good backup o-linemen out there to be had. Face it. We are stuck with what we have and any other team's rejects.

Eventually, when teams start making painful cap cuts having bucks in the Free Agent war chest would be optimal.

Whenever the Cap hammer falls good players will be available.

I am still worried about our DLINE

We have a VERY CAPABLE OL... The need for me is in the DLINE.

This is the area where we had the biggest problems, YET WE ADDED NO ONE.

I like Meeks, but honestly he hasent proven ANYTHING YET.

We know we can rush for TD's, but right now we are still giving up 300 yards and 30 points a game.

Our backups left cause they all got offered better jobs. Can't blame them. The guys behind our starting 5 are unproven, but everyone is at one point. Would like to have some veteran backups, but we have a good line coach, and talent. I'll let them do their thing.

And stop blaming Peppers for our FA period. get a clue people.

    • Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at. 
    • Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often. 
    • With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
