First Take 11/11/13 Carolina vs San Fran


Dex

Recommended Posts

They talk for 4 minutes about it. Stephen loves us and Skip loves our D but isn't completely sold.

 

Stephen says "elite" and "legit" at least 4 times each.

Skip said 49ers would have won with Vernon.
 
Here's the video. Ends around 1:00.00 starts around 56:00.

Good stuff Dex,

It kills me how Skip and other media outlets make excuses and say San. Fran would have won if ......

San Fran would have won if this person would have been playing......

Injuries are part of the game we have lost our first and second team guards yet we don't make excuses about starting a defensive tackle at guard.

Bayless is clueless.  ""somehow he comes from his linebacker position and breaks this up"  Watch the damn film.  That is because he had him right away.  And NO Davis doesn't come down with that ball because Kuechly breaks it up the same way.

 

I hate when they say what ifs because someone got hurt.   Well if they had a real ref that wasn't in the back pocket of the Niners  Davis fumbles the football and Carolina recovers.

No offense to the OP, but stories that include the phrase "Skip Bayless said" just don't register well with me.

Well from now on I'll run all my Panther related threads by you before I post. Sorry for the trouble I caused.

It's not their job to watch film. This leads to shoddy journalism and over generalizations more often than not. The sports casting world will know a lot more on November 19th if we are able to pull it out just because everyone will have access to the game. That said, he is right about Kuechly.

I have a feeling that was a blown coverage and Kuechly recognized the call as soon as he saw the tight end split the seam. Something went wrong in the pre snap call and there wasn't going to be a safety there which Kuechly recognized almost immediately.

That's not based on anything other than how the play unfolded and how unscripted it seemed to be that Kuechly was 30 yards down field with no safety within 5 yards.

Don't bash me for this interpretation because that's all it is, an interpretation, I could be wrong.

    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.  
    • Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
