Are you impressed by our defense?

They have played well enough to win in three of the four games. Even a case can be made for the buffalo game.

I think they are a solid number one corner from being a top five defense for the next 5 years.

They are light years ahead of this offense.

yes. in spite of offensive ineptitude they've managed to hold teams to under 15 points a game. that is damn near elite.

They are playing about as I exoected.

Technically they held one team to less than 15 and the three others met or exceeded 15.

The defense has been great for the most part. Secondary leaves a little to be desired, although I like some of the pieces. (To toot my own horn, I said Lester would make a difference before his 1st game).  Late game "collapses"  have stemmed more from the offense not sustaining drives and coaching IMO.

    • No one way to do it, it does appear that with the bigger draft picks of the last 5 years…..majority haven’t steered clear of young QBs on the roster being their hopeful guy. Especially past their rookie seasons but even some the biggest ones have had it early.   As far as Andy Dalton, the two young guys he has “mentored”…..have had very rough NFL starts.  Which really ask the why the heck is Dalton here.   He doesn’t really check any box.  No young potential.  Can’t step in and win.  And his mentor track record with Fields and now Bryce is bad 
    • I had thought the Panthers might let him play out his contract this year and hope he stays healthy. If not draft a left tackle and move Ekwonu to right tackle. 
    • Frankly, if most teams in the NFL lose their starting QB for a significant amount of time, they're screwed. The fantasy is that one has a future Tony Romo or a Nick Foles that can carry a stacked team. The reality is that you might get roughly 3~5 games out of your backup before it all falls apart. Remember all of Peyton Manning's backups? Utterly terrible. Speaking of backup QB's, Raiders may need one. https://www.nfl.com/news/raiders-qb-aidan-o-connell-suffered-fractured-wrist-in-preseason-finale-expected-to-be-out-6-8-weeks
