Watched the game again...

First I'd like to mention the NFL preseason rewind feature condensed version is great.

1. Bell stood out to me as being far and away our worst lineman. It may be that he had a bad match up, but damn.

2. On many of the Eagles big runs Hardy gave up the edge like he was in pass rush mode all the time. I hope he plays more disciplined during the season.

3. As has been discussed Fua is bad, extremely bad. He was either stoned at the line, or pushed back every time. Even when singled up he gets zero push.

4. The Eagles were sending 5 and 6 men rushing a majority of the time. I think in a regular season game well designed screens, or quick slants would eat them up. I say we'll designed because our screen game is usually hit, or miss.

5. McCoy makes beautiful cuts. Fantasy football stud this year.

6. Saw a lot of pressure early from the Dline, but just no sacks came of it. As stated before I think a lot of that was the fact that Fua gave up the middle every time.

7. Gettis played well, good cuts, and showed awareness especially on the pass break up of what should have been an interception.

8. Gano and Nortman played well, so there's that.

9. Lots of zone play from Panthers, vanilla defense little blitzing.

10. Bell sucks, Fua sucks, that cannot be said enough.

can't remember, pretty sure it was first string but they had a couple blitzes from the left side of the line that went uncontested. could you tell who's assignment that should have been?

First quarter? Second? Off hand I do remember that on the big hit that Cam took it was on a nicely timed delayed blitz by a LB who came in after Williams had went right into the flat.

i dont remember if we got hit or not, may have forced a quick pass.  pretty sure on third down, maybe even on the second possession when we went 3 and out.  it definitely happened twice and I'm all but sure it was first half.

First possession on 3rd down they ran the same play that scored them a TD against Chicago. Olsen goes to set pick for Lafell instead of Armanti. Lafell is open for a bit but Newton doesn't see him. Newton had a little pressure in his face so it may have forced him to hold on to it. Hard to judge from the couch!

Football 101, score more points than your opponent. Carolina failed to score touchdowns resulting in Field goals.  Thats why they lost. Plain and simple. you can analyze all aspects of the game you want but if you cant put the ball in the endzone, you wont win very many games.

You could have replayed 100 panthers games over the years and saw the same garbage I saw lat night. Drives stall after 6 plays, rbs run for 7+ yards a play, and qbs shred our secoundary. Same ole shizz different year. I suppose we will get a top 10 oick next year...im so bummed.

And that's the point. Nobody gives a fug that we lost the game. It's what you take away from our first team offense and defense. And it looks like the same poo from the past two years. No improvement. Hell you can make the case that the offense is regressing. We need a real offensive mind in there and we don't have one. We got mike fuging Shula and ken fuging Dorsey.

no way, really?  to get the ball into the endzone, you have to have all those aspects add up.  that would be an nfln summary of our game there you just gave us.

    • Such a dumb pick and most of us knew it Ladd would’ve been the perfect match with Bryce But instead they draft XL to fill the void at the X spot because we had a 34 year old Adam Thielen. Then a year later we draft a real X WR and move XL inside where he has absolutely no business being for a list of reasons
    • My logic was hopefully a new HC would have a LOT quicker hook for Bryce. But, that is assuming they would even be allowed. I guess that's a call to the owner's box for permission.
    • I’m not overly defending the pick. I was team Stroud by a country mile but I also knew what to expect as far as ceiling goes with Bryce  I had concerns with Bryce’s arm strength and size. Neither seem to overly be an issue. He’s proven to throw with enough anticipation that he makes up for a lack of velocity. I was worried about the way he played in college not translating to the league. Spending 8 seconds behind LOS. I did also think it would take Young a few years for him to reach his full potential. I also think he’s too smart and accurate to flat out bust which all of seems to be pretty accurate Bryce is someone you can absolutely win with. No one thought he’d be the type to carry a well below average supporting cast to a Super Bowl. He’s fully capable of giving you those 4-5 special plays a game that help your team win. And then you have those rare times where he’s the reason you win like in Atlanta.  All good teams have more than just a QB.  Even the teams that are winning this year all have a lot more than what we have. Supporting cast/defense… more than what we have  As far as Morgan goes I 100% agree. Fwiw he was legit team Bryce during the draft process. I know that for a fact. Last years draft is a complete write off. This past draft still up for debate. TMac and Scourton look solid. I can’t remember the last time I saw Princely win a rep and I’m being honest. Ransom has a little value. I think ETN is a nice insurance add. Evans could be a TE2.    I think this offseason Morgan will get aggressive with trying to land a pass rusher. Whether that’s a trade for Crosby, signing Hendrickson, it’s going to be top priority. We need a ILB. I really like Kaden Ellis. Sonny Styles should be in our draft range. We also need a tight end and it would be interesting to see this offseason with Kenyon Sadiq
