Where we don't have holes


Happy Panther

Recommended Posts

I've been spending so much time on advanced stats seeing how bad our secondary sucks I thought I would turn that lemon into lemonade.

Our studs based on WPA (Win probability added) or EPA (Expected Points added) WPA basically counts up the benefit or detriment a play has on the overall probability of winning the game. WPA is credited to a player if he is directly involved in the play. Then you can compare WPA among players at the same position. EPA is similar but with points.

Our studs

S. Smith #21 in EPA

C. Munnerlyn #13 WPA (sometimes stats lie lol)

D. Williams #11 in EPA

Cam Newton #11 in WPA

C. Johnson #11 in WPA

D. Edwards #11 in WPA

G. Hardy #9 in WPA #11 in EPA

Greg Olsen #3 in WPA #3 in EPA

And the biggest stud on the team.

LUUUUUUUUUUUUKKKEEEEE!!!!!!!!

#2 WPA and #4 EPA

Also #1 in the league for Tackle factor

Does anyone know where you can get OLINE stats for individual players? I think someone posted a link showing Gross' stats weren't bad this year.

I don't pay for the premium stats currently but PFF I think had him far and away the best thing we had

So, is this a good place for me to argue Cooper or Warmick at 14?

I don't think it would be as disastrous as some say. OG isn't a big impact position but has a positive impact on the rest of the line, the running game, Cam's play. But then all the other holes come from FA basically. Maybe we can live with WR in the 2nd round.

PFF had gross at +16.4

27. Carolina Panthers (9)

PB – 27th, RB – 23rd, PEN – 14th

Stud: As is often the case, it’s the ever reliable Jordan Gross (+16.4) who continues to get the job done, even if his performance in Week 17 was the worst we’ve ever seen from him. He may never be an elite tackle, but at least he’s more than a one-tricky pony.

Dud: There was a close competition but ultimately the inability of Geoff Hangartner (-14.5) to get any push in the run game meant he was the way to go.

Summary: The Panthers haven’t been shy about investing draft picks on the line, but with the injury to Ryan Kalil this year it fell apart. Amini Silatolu looked every bit the rookie, while Byron Bell isn’t good enough, often enough, to be a starter in this league yet.

the guy can still play

Yea, Capt. can be a positive factor on our defense as long as he's not asked to cover a team's #1 or 2 receiver. Keep him in the slot where he's not having to cover a guy 15 yards or more down the field and he's above average at his job. This year and two years ago he did well when confined to that role. Luckily Rivera learned from past mistakes when Gamble got hurt and didn't force Capt into a role he isn't able to fill like last year.

I like D-Lo and all... but there needs to be some context to this. Sure, he beasted like the last 2 or 3 games, but we lost a poo ton of games as a direct result of the run game continuously getting shut down drive after drive.

really? and that was all DWILLs fault? Nothing to do with the coaching, O line and the opposing D knowing exactly what play was next...

I never said it was. I just don't think anyone who watched us play this season can really say Deangelo was more effective than Smitty, and just as effective as Cam, CJ, etc.

We had o-line and coaching issues, yeah I totally agree that fuged up the running game this year, but point blank you can't give him credit for something he didn't do, regardless of those issues. That being said, I still love me some D-Lo.

Well...lets take the OL out of the talk as they where bad. Made life hard on everyone.

The scheme is X. Whether it be 2011, 2012 or 2013. Overall they want a RB to do X. Williams is better suited for Y. They can try to work in Y....but Williams not being great at X is why he was demoted 2 yrs in a row. Also why he always went backwards more than any other runner and goes down so easy now.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
