Thoughts on game stats

Panthers won TOP...not by much, but with a balanced attack and our 1st team O...that is a must.

 

Red zone....2 of 2....awesome. Success in the red zone a must this year.

 

3rd down efficiency...46% vs opponent 36%.  Love to see us in 3rd and short more than the previous years.  Hope this trend continues.

 

92 rushing yards...this needs to increase.

 

Lost the turnover battle....can't do this.  Fix turnovers please....and Cam....please Cam....that was ugly.

 

Won despite losing the turnover battle...can't do that very often.  Got to improve.

 

O gave up 1 sack for 0 yds...D got 7 for 56 yds.....love this one!

 

32 rushes, 30 passes....nice balance.

 

 

 

Preseason and I know vanilla, vanilla.  Some players are playing for their careers.  Overall want to see fewer turnovers and more rushing yardage.

 

Sloppy on both sides...maybe new rules on practice contribute to some of that. At least everyone on an even playing field.

 

Great to get the win when winning not that important to the coaches.

Everybody keeps saying it was a sloppy game, and I guess it was. But I just can't help liking the feeling I got from the way we played. I think it likely a good bit of the sloppiness stemmed from it being the first game of the season. I'll be looking closely this Thursday and in the last two preseason games to see if we're able to refine our performance. As for Friday, I saw a defense that is hungry, playing and acting like they have something to prove. I saw an offense that still needs time to gel, but nevertheless still managed to put up points. I also saw a lot of individual players who performed like they were trying to show they deserved to be there. All in all, I'll take it!

We won another game when Cam has a turnover.  In the past if Cam threw a pick I was like we are going to lose.  It was a watered down GP, we have not even installed the full PB yet ( I think), why? Cuz we are installing the WC this week.  Anyways, Cam was OK, 1st games vs no team mate opponents and he really only played 12 or 13 snaps right? 

 

I'm really looking forward to the next two games... 1 preseason game was too small of a sample size to really judge things, but hell I am excited....

    • Yes. It's fluff time anyways but it's getting a bit ridiculous. I don't believe this mix has ever worked for the Panthers before. Break .500 and then start the hype. 
    • While I have a chance to be overly excited I'll take that opportunity. The team will determine what happens with that. It's been a while since we've had much to be excited about, I'd say let's just embrace it and see how it unfolds.
    • Knowns: top 10 o line 2 proven, quality RBs 2 proven, WRs who get open and catch everything. 2 others who show a lot of ‘potential’ A QB who improved greatly in the last few games of the season, topped off by putting up a 40 burger win in OT in this franchise’s kryptonite house. What will transpire this season is yet to be seen.  defense has far less proven. 2  very good CBs, a stud DT (coming off a major injury) and the rest is, again, ‘potential.’ A DC that is essentially starting the season on the hot seat.  This is not 2003, but it could be good. 2003 was the most stacked roster from top to bottom that this team has ever had. This squad finished on a big upswing, yes, but we’ll see.  I think it all comes down to how spiked your hopium is. The running game is where it is for the team. This is not a defense that will win 3 points games. Just not. To win, this team will have to dominate TOP and come up with 2+ more 3rd down stops each game. Again, do-able and should be good for at least a 7 point differential in our favor, ‘hopefully.’  I will say that it is nice seeing talent that actually belongs in the NFL on our roster.
