Positive PFF Notes On Star, Kawann, and. . .Nate Chandler?

First, Star shows his star potential (+3.1):

 

There are moments when Lotulelei executes his moves so well that he looks near unstoppable. Kelechi Osemele found that out the hard way as the rookie manhandled him. Has provided enough pass rush that you can’t write him off there either, but it’s likely his work in the run game that will earn him plaudits this season.

Kawann gets some love (+4.7):

 

Is getting the job done and that bodes well for a Panthers team desperate to get some push up the middle. With a sack, hit and five hurries already he’s showing he can be the answer to that particular problem.

And finally, Nate Chandler showing some promise at his new position:

 

Although converted defensive tackle Nate Chandler has struggled in run blocking as an offensive tackle, he is one of 10 OTs with a perfect Pass Blocking Efficiency at 100.0.

    • I have a hard time imagining us making any changes mid-season no matter how bad it gets. Tepper is impulsive. But a) there's nothing to be gained by making a change 3 weeks into a season, you're already signaling your season is over. Is someone really going to step in at this point and turn things around? Anyone in the league? Or even CFB, because I don't think Bellichick could step in and right this ship. So the best we could hope for, is someone like Wilks to step in, boost morale enough to win a few meaningless games and ruin our chances at a top pick, and then have the wheels fall off again. And b) Tepper has proven that he is capable of learning some lessons. We really haven't heard much out of that clown recently. Certainly not as much as we used to the first few seasons. And by this I mean I think he knows he has a reputation. And no quality coach wants to go and work for the impulsive, meddlesome owner who repeatedly fires coaches midseason. We've already got to be the least attractive landing spots in the NFL with the absolute dearth of talent, conditioning, and playing surface that will keep players healthy. So the best thing to do is at least pretend that he's ready to stay out of the way. So either way, IMO the smart play is you let this play out all season.  Let these suckers go down with the ship, and if a regime change is needed, you wait til the end of the season to make a change.
