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."

LMAAAAAAO!! Those Kevin boothe comments are hilarious! I literally almost died laughing.

      Canes vs bruins 7pm

      Saw a replay of that Kucci save in the first period. That was a crazy good save and unbelievable awareness to realize that the bruins skater was coming open from the back boards

      Canales really loved this question

      Across the league, many of the most productive wide receivers are doing their best work out of the slot. Rams WR Puka Nacua and Seattle’s Jaxon Smith-Njigba are perfect examples, with both putting up strong numbers this season thanks to their impact coming from the slot. Teams are clearly figuring out that placing their top playmakers inside creates major advantages against today’s defenses. I’m glad Canales has picked up on that as well and put T-Mac in position to have his best game yet. Especially against the Falcons, who arguably had one of the better pass defenses in the NFL prior to yesterday Hope to see that continue. Dave's still relatively young in the coaching world and is clearly still trying to find a good formula. Yesterday's gameplan with the YAC and impact all across the board was an encouraging sign for the future.

      Receivers balled Sunday!

      I was really happy to see XL have success and make an impact. I’ve been one of his biggest haters, but at the same time there’s very few players I want to see succeed more than XL. He’s a good dude who’s been through a lot. I hope he can keep building off this game.
