No Pass Rush

Biggest reason why we lost the game is that we couldn't generate any pass rush. I didn't see much blitzing out there which I think we should have done especially on 3rd down.

I blame this loss on poor coaching defensively. The zone was supposed to slow down the Falcons and prevent big plays but it allowed Matt Ryan to pick us apart. Even though the stats don't show, one third down conversion after another just killed us.

I'm really losing confidence in this coaching staff and probably the players are too. They looked content with keeping this one close and didn't have the killer instinct to go for the kill.

We also missed Chris Harris. We need some big hits in the secondary.

I love how The Panthers hire a new DC and they're still running the same lame ass vanilla D they ran last season. Why in the hell are the CB's still playing 10-15 yds off the WR. Even when The Falcons were near the endzone the CB's were still playing off. The Panthers need to learn how disguise their blitzes a lil better. God I wish we had Rex Ryan for our D coordinator lol.

The D handled the run pretty well, mainly due to the speed of the linebackers and the ability of the secondary to play the run. Against the pass though we were destroyed. The front 4 simply can't generate any pressure - and that includes Peppers - he doesn't require a double team, so the 'lesser' players on the D-line are never put in favorable matchups.

We basically play a cover 2 without actually causing the QB to rush his throws, resulting in the holes in the zones being exploited. It really is frustrating to watch.

      Bryce Young Work Ethic

      It absolutely is on him for doing it and I'd wager he used a good bit of that psychology major to help him through interviews because he could read people better than most. The Panthers should have recognized it for what it was, hell, we all did, but you can't absolve him just because everyone else does it.    38 Million guaranteed.

      Week 10 opponent - NY Giants

      No Ikem vs the best pass rushing team in the NFL?  With no pocket for Bryce to step in to because of arguably the best interior DL in the NFL, Dexter Lawrence? Giants win comfortably IMO.  Look at how hype the Panthers were to win last week.  That was enough for them. The Panthers have struggled against mobile QBs this year too.  Guys who can extend the play.  Bo Nix, Marcus Mariota, Caleb Williams.  Panthers have struggled against all QBs this year to be honest, but those guys in particular did the best statistically.  Expect a big game from Danny Dimes, Nabers, and Tyrone.

      And where did anyone say they were? I’m saying that’s where the comp comes from. I agree they are different. No two QBs are the same even that Nebraska QB is different than Mahomes no matter how hard he tries…
