Panthers' defense is blast from past

Great read all the way around about the similarities between our current defense and the 2003 defense.  But my favorite part was a NY Giants guard talking about our defense.  Before games you get the regular dose of coach speak and pumping up the competition.  It is usually more telling to get a guys perspective after we have played them.

New York Giants guard Kevin Boothe was asked about the Carolina defense, which sacked quarterback Eli Manning seven times in a 38-0 Week 3 rout.

 

"Ugggggh," he told ESPN.com last week. "Man, that's a sore subject. Yeah, I watched them play San Francisco the other day and I was like, 'See? It wasn't just us!'

 

"Everybody after that game was like, 'Giants, they stink.' But now they go and do it to the 49ers, so what are you going to say now?"

 

The Panthers sacked 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick six times. They held a San Francisco team that was averaging more than

30 points a game during a five-game winning streak to 151 yards of total offense, 45 in the second half.

 

"They're a talented group," Boothe said of the Panthers. "That front seven, they have guys that are stout against the run and can also get after the passer. If you can get after the passer consistently with four rushers, you're going to be tough to beat."

      I think that plays a factor for LaMelo, among others. Obviously the biggest being that he just doesn't seem like a guy that will ever be healthy long enough to build around. Also, he still has some maturity issues. He will just basically take himself out of a game every few weeks by losing his poo about some call and then piling up frustration fouls or TO's. I think that goes back to his dad. He always built those kids to focus more on themselves than the game around them.   Okay, this was maybe the 4th game I have seen all or part of and I like him. Especially knowing that he wasn't a Lane Kiffin guy the whole time. That's a MASSIVE red flag for QB development. If he was available around the 3rd round or lower, I would absolutely be okay taking a flier on him. Promising prospect. Way more polished than someone like Malik Willis, IMO.

      It's going to hurt when they run it back with Dalton as the only other option next year.
