PFF's Panthers - Cardinals Refocused

Some interesting tidbits

 

 

Short is also working to outshine the fellow rookie DT with the bigger brand name that lines up next to him. His +3.4 overall grade against Arizona – his third straight grade in the green – should help.

 

 

 

Ben Hartsock’s role was largely as a run blocker, as per usual, and it was his grade in that area (+2.0) that sees him land this spot. Handling business on the end of the line with a handful of solid kick-outs and inside seals — primarily against the Arizona linebackers — the only down note in his performance was a special teams holding penalty at the end of the half that turned a 41-yard field goal attempt into a 51-yarder (that Graham Gano promptly nailed anyway.)

 

 

 

Two of those plays – the two sacks – were particularly worth watching as he came nearly obstacle-free on both, setting aside center Ryan Kalil for a safety (2Q 5:33), and right tackle Byron Bell for a sack-fumble late in the fourth (4Q 2:48).

those delayed blitzes were killing us, but they were doing it all game.  one of the mlb had a sack and ran right by Wharton who was blocking nobody, at some point, these have to be recognized.  oh, the one time we did call a hot route, what did Washington do?  Of course he dropped in coverage and picked off the slant.  they did very well in their scheme and disguising the blitzes.  By the fourth quarter though, there should be at least one short route every pass in case they do blitz, I can't confirm either way.  Cam should never get sacked 7 times with his mobility.

    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
    • When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
