What do we have.

What we have given up with a loss, is control.

We have, however, never need control to dominate.

 

A loss tonight, I believe, benefits us more than a win tonight and loss at home.

We are such a capable team, and we have been given something that is best to learn from.

 

A loss.

 

The best comes from dominating, and not giving into, loss.

Which this team is more than capable of.

What do we have?

A weak OLine. Like strength wise. Weak. Our interior gets ridden backwards. It's happened all season. Cam bails them out because he's Cam. He escapes. But this line doesn't have enough horsepower IMO.

WRs who can't consistently get open. Or catch the routine play. Steve Smith needs to be in the slot IMO. He no longer has #1 ability. But who else do we have? LaFell.......I honestly wouldn't lose any sleep if we let him walk. I'd love to get the ball to Ginn on 3rd downs. Olsen has zero YAC ability but seems to be the only guy who consistently catches the ball.

We lack An aggressive offensive gameplan. Against a Saints team. Open it up. Option run after option run? Really? This team has slowly gone into conservative survival mode down the stretch it seems. Don't make mistakes. Let defense win it. Sometimes our D needs help. Option runs to 34 for 1 yard doesn't cut it. Did we not learn our lesson in Miami?

Even after a crap night I still think we are good enough to be 11-5 / 12-4. But we do have some glaring deficiencies.

this could be good for us...Ron and Shula went back to keep there playbook tight and not loose like we have been lately.  They looked at the game as too big....it was just another game and they preached this but did not do this.  They will learn and get it right...JETs up next..let's get the W.  KEEP POUNDING!!!!

Thats what I am saying, while I wish we won this game, I feel we benefit just as much to fix faults now than later.

    • For Bryce’s obvious shortcomings (bad pun), there is upside to his game. This isn’t being a homer or apologists, but I like to consider myself fair in criticism.  He’s far tougher than I ever thought he’d be. I really thought homie would have been broken in half by now. I don’t know how he’s not, but he’s not.  He is prone to turning the ball over early in games which digs a huge hole the team is not built to come back from, but dude DOES come up with crucial first down in crucial situations. It’s NEVER pretty, but he just kind of has the shining. He gets bailed out LOTS, and the team still loses games because of him, but he’s a bit of an enigma. He’s a turnover machine that is clutch in big moments.  He’s a smart/elusive cat. He kind of has to be with his limitations. His audibles are almost always correct and he understands coverages. I don’t see him getting fooled too frequently. His turnovers are almost never the ‘damnit Jake/Cam!’ brand we have been accustomed to. They are ALWAYS due to his size/strength limitations.  Strip sacks that shouldn’t be. Picks that happened because he just don’t got that NFL arm. He is still prone to panicking and the wheels can and do fall off at a much higher rate than his peers.  The team is winning on the backs of the defense, running game and special teams… but they’re winning, and unbelievably 1 game behind Tampa. As long as this is happening and Bryce doesn’t go full meltdown, Dave is going to keep him in. He is not getting pulled. 
    • This was a terrible podcast. A bunch of uninformed homers that had worse takes than the bottom 10% of the Huddle. I listened to a handful of podcasts this past offseason in search of new Panthers material since John Ellis doesn't do his pod anymore and The 4 Man Rush don't either. Immediately deleted it after the handful I listened to. Truly terrible.
    • The NFC South was so bad it sent a team with a losing record to the Playoffs that year. Wilks had players playing hard at the end but let’s not act like that was a good season. That season hurts even more now that we see in hindsight how good our QB situation was. We just didn’t know it.
