Why don't the Panthers seem concerned about the past two games?

I think eyebrows are already raised.

At the same time we are tied for division lead so maybe a little to early to go on a firing spree and seeming panicked

 

Only because all of a sudden our division is garbage. The Panthers are close to last in every major team statistical category.

 

ypg 24th. ppg 28th. We went from a top 3 D to the bottom of the league in 2 games. That is a huge turn around in the NFL. Someone should be held accountable.

No where to go but up.

I think it's very possible that the defensive coaches used both game tape from the first two games and player input (Mitchell on PIT and Smitty on BAL) to figure out our offensive weaknesses and exploit them.

Both these teams we just played have a rep for having good defenses and there's a reason for it.

Crap, with this Oline, it probably just took 20 minutes of game film to figure out what to do.

As for the defense, something is off... Idk what yet but something tangible has changed.

my biggest problem.

 

i totally get that you can't just pass all willy-nilly, but i've never seen the inability to adjust the offensive approach according to the ebb and flow of the game the way i did against baltimore. i'm trying be conscious of my own relative ignorance in football philosophy and game management compared to professionals, but the fact that guys get fired for incompetence all the time makes it clear that there are times when fans' observations prove correct.

 

i really think teams have figured out how to beat mike shula and do it on a consistent basis, and in a copycat league he's going to freight trained by every team until he figures out how to stop it. making your entire philosophy "hold them to ten points and beat them by three" is no longer going to cut it.

 

fug it, just get a ps4 or xbox one loaded with madden 15 and just pick the play it recommends.

Jimmy Clausen knows our offense...

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
