Wtf is Chris Scott and Byron Bell doing?

Can't really blame all that on Chris Scott, Byron Bell basically completely ignored the defender and hung Scott out to dry.

Bell is horrendous. Is there seriously nobody else that can start? What a joke.

I mean he's a nice guy and all, but damn.

B. Bell was doing his assignment.  That was not his man.  Stop putting blame where it doesn't belong, he has not been half as bad as you casual fans think he is.

 

I am however laughing at the way he's just standing there.

 

It's hilarious, whether it mattered or not.

So when his man drops back into coverage, Bell's assignment is to just stand there?

Beat up on Bell all you want, that was not his assignment.  When Smith's man drops back into a Tampa 2 and we have a pitch out to the opposite side what is his assignment?

 

If he stands and looks for a player to block do you jump his poo?

Until he's sure the defender isn't running a delayed stunt, yes. A favorite tactic for defenders it to step back and fool their man into thinking he's going to cover and then run through the gap when they turn their attention elsewhere.

I admit it looks awful in this gif and I've been a guy very critical of Bell, but what exactly was he supposed to do here? He didn't know the DE was going to drop into coverage instead of rushing Cam. In the second that it took him to realize this, Scott had already managed to get himself whipped like a rented mule. Once you look at the play with this in min, you realize that it was Scott, not Bell who actually did an awful job on this play even though it's Bell who looks like an idiot at first glance.

      Do You Agree With These Excuses?

      By Saca312 · Posted

      Pretty much on point. I’ll admit, I used to be one of Cam Newton’s staunch defenders back in the day, so I understand the instinct to pull positives out of a QB you believe is unfairly judged. I'm sure I was quite overbearing as well with that, lol. Is some of the criticism of Bryce Young over the top? Maybe. But there are also plenty of fair points. For what the Panthers gave up to draft him, you’d expect a bigger return by year three, not the level of struggle we’re still seeing. Sure, the offense as a whole rarely looks in sync, but that doesn’t excuse us from asking whether Bryce is worth the pick. At this point, the bigger question is how the Panthers want to move forward. Do they lean into Bryce’s limitations, tighten the support around him, and hope improved coaching/playcalling can make it work? I’m not even sure Canales’ system is a natural fit for him. Or do they reset at QB, target someone who fits Canales’ offense better, and ideally land a player with the off-structure ability and athleticism to elevate the rest of this unit’s flaws? AKA what Bryce Younf was supposed to be, but with the typical NFL arm and athleticism to back that up. That type of QB might succeed where Bryce has struggled. For now, the team stays the course with Young. But if he doesn’t show real growth soon, it’s going to force some tough decisions.

      God, Tepper is so fuging stupid. just thinking back to that time…  how simple it could’ve been.  We found a formula that worked - and now, Wilks is where?  Foreman is where?  Imagine taking that foundation and building off that with guys like Lewis and Hunt, Tet, etc.  what a monumental fug up.

      Yeah I mean that dumbass play by XL where he didn't get his feet in might as well. He a drop. But it doesn't make up for all of the mistakes Bryce young made once again in the season opener
