Munnerlyn: Secondary gets no respect

By Steve Reed:

'Nope,'' Munnerlyn said shaking his head, ''they'll still give all of the credit to our front seven. If we go out there and hold Brady to under 200 yards they'll still give it to the front seven. Guaranteed.''

The Panthers rank fourth in the league against the pass and have only allowed seven touchdown passes this season.

The secondary has combined for nine interceptions, five forced fumbles and 4 1-2 sacks. Two of those interceptions were returned for touchdowns.

Just off the top of my head I can count 4 times where Captain has let a turnover slip through his hands, literally. 1 in Minnesota, 2 in Tampa, and 1 in SF. I'll start giving Captain credit when he starts capitalizing on his opportunities.

Those missed opportunities led to the other team scoring points in the SF and Minnesota games. I think atleast 1 of the 2 led to points against Tampa.

    • All I can say is... I have some happiness off the rags choking and losing to the Panthers. Hopefully the Western conference team wins the Stanley cup, but now I can be 100% uninvested in the playoffs 
    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
