Good job. It seems the entire world is saying the Demarco Murray needs to run North/South and not East/West. Except North Korea. Bastards.

But I have to figure that Chip Kelly knows this. It's got to be more complicated than that right? Either way, good break down.

Em with the reminder about Sproles. Good job. Sproles is the RB that will be the toughest matchup for our LBs with Shaq being out. The other 3 focused on Murray, who doesn't have the speed Sproles does. Surprised no one mentioned Ertz as a threat considering Graham gashed us for 140 yards.

Thanx for updating the logo, too

As did everyone

Most in the media thought the same way, Jacksonville was a sleeper for many because they thought Bortles would take a step up. Add the fact Carolina was without Benji and most thought the offense would be anemic. Alas that hasn't happened, Carolina's offense has been doing enough to win games and the defense has been stout. As for Jacksonville, they have been awful as usual.

What's interesting about the Eagles is that in both the Saints (I was in the press box for that one) & Giants game, they were struggling until both teams made mistakes and all of a sudden, the light came on for their offense. That's a really tough team to figure out week to week. I do think they lack explosiveness on the flanks and too much E/W makes you 'soft' when it's time to go N/S

I question this whole E/W and N/S business. It seems like it's more a function of effective blocking than play design. Sure a toss is E/W at first usually but I can't imagine that Philly is actually asking Murray to run E/W. I think it's mostly a result of ineffective run blocking...causing him to "dance". That's not usually effective for any running back.

      It doesn't matter if you give him a new WR1. To do it you have to devoted MORE resources to him. At some point you have to stop or there's nothing left for the defense. Our defense looks like scrubs because that's what we've got because we've spent a shitload on offense. He got a 1st round WR and a shiny new RB in round 2.  Bryce had a couple of good games but we are not competing against the Chiefs or Eagles. They're headed to the playoffs with realistic SB aspirations and we're headed to a top 10 pick. Those teams have competed for an entire season where the Panthers have ummm... They've almost gotten to as many wins as Matt Rhule in a season.  Would you rather have Bryce or Lamar? Because we've spent more on Bryce and to build around him than what it would have cost to trade for Lamar.  This team can't get better when it's having to devote everything to making it possible for our #1 QB god to play average NFL football.  I may end up being wrong and Bryce may become the GOAT. But one thing you won't see me doing is flip flopping on where I stand every couple of weeks because he has good or bad games. I think Bryce is our version of Daniel Jones and I think we're going to fug ourselves pretending he's Pat Mahomes.
