PFF Grading: Panthers 2nd Overall On Season

This just makes me angry.

we do everything well except finish.

 

the coaches do a good job of making the guys ready for play, imo. they just haven't been managed well on game day, esp end of games.

 

i really do hope we've turned a corner. several very reputable sites have us grading out well consistently and we've done this for a while. it's just the whole finishing thing that we've screwed the pooch on.

I rarely saw him play.

 

I'm telling you guys, it is a serious issue that is being a overlooked by this fanbase. Fua is getting more and more snaps each week and it is apparent out on the field. I don't know how Rivera is so mind numbingly stupid that he can't connect the dots with Fua on field=big runs given up but he's made it quite clear he has some sort of weird connection to him. Gettleman, if he is worthi his salt at all, HAS to intervene. He HAS to CUT Sione Fua, or Fua is going to get more and more snaps regardless of how it hurts us. Rivera can't help but play him. I said it yesterday, Ron is going to milk the Dwan injury as long as it is a threat to FUa getting a jersey and out onto the field. There is some kind of weird non-performance related connection between the two and it has got to stop because it is killing us. No, I don't think there is some weird bromance or anything, but I think Ron loves Sione's "give it all and never quit herp diddly derp!" and it is absolutely destroying us.

 

 

It has got to come to an end. Fua has to go.

since Dwan has been out, Star has been lining up at the 3 tech while Cole has been at the 1. this might be his reason for struggling. of course, when KK is in he slides back to the 1 tech/ NT.

Ya I have noticed that too, wonder if that's factored into the poor grade. Not playing the 3 tech as well as 1 tech

    • That's also in an era when DBs could press for 10 yards, Qbs could be hit, QBs could have players land on them, incidental contact could be made with the head etc. You can't compare bryce to players like this. What you can do is say who's done less over their first 30 starts and had more resources dedicated to them and at that point you're looking at like Joey Harrington.  At least with Joey there weren't morons in the fan base falling over themselves to compare him to players from the first year of the NFL merger. 
    • Brees had a pro bowl year in year 3. Phillip Rivers was drafted anyways and Brees went off for two more years before his shoulder was completely torn up in the last game of the 2006 season. 
    • The last time this franchise was in this much despair pre Tepper, the rumors of the banner flyover were met by the front office. They quickly worked with the disgruntled fans to quell any potential negative event occurring at the Stadium or TV. The real question is do we even have enough fans that care to get together behind a movement like this again or is our fan base too far gone that we dont care to revolt like this? Personally, I still go to games each year no matter how terrible it is, but it has went from something I spent all week looking forward to almost as enjoyable as yearly physical. We can count the blunders this franchise has made in keeping Head Coaches, General Managers and players too long. (Rivera,Rhule, Hurney, Fitterrer). Team wise we've missed out on Herbert, we didnt trade Burns for 2 1st round picks, we reached by taking Bryce who would have most likely been were we were going to draft anyway, and extended players who constantly underperformed like Ian Thomas. Even when we are gifted a chance like 2 first for Burns that we shouldnt have paid premium, we fumbled a chance to really jump start the franchise. So this is more to everyone as a whole. How much of your Soul for this team is left? Is it still there that if there was a glimmer of hope, you'd come right back or has the futility of this team negated your love for football completely?
