Ya know what really hurt yesterday ?

Marion Barber and Felix Jones are going to brutalize us. Whoever starts beside Lewis might as well go ahead and lube up before the game starts, that'll at least help a bit.

I fear you're probably right. Paying the price for focusing on the wrong things in the off-season/ tying up cap space in the wrong places. Can't win in the NFL unless you win in the trenches on both sides of the ball.

Last time they were a dominating D, a guy named Del Rio stood on the sidelines.

That's not true at all. We had a dominant D last year right up until Kemo, Lewis and Beason all got hurt. It was pretty damned good during that Super Bowl run too.

Let's face it...we haven't even come close to replacing Kemo yet. I said before the season started that he was the one guy we could least afford to lose on the D-line...I wish I was wrong.

    • This.  Honest introspection on his behalf would have seen that size and strength were his biggest weaknesses. He looks no different. With the programs in the NFL, he could have come back to camp 10 lbs of muscle heavier. Easily. If had done so, it would have been reported on. It would have been the hottest story…. But we never saw anything of the sort, so it probably never happened.  He showed improvement this last game, likely from Andy’s tutelage. He has to show something VERY special to close the season out to change my thinking on him… like 4 game winning streak with a clutch 4th quarter comeback. Then maybe. 
    • 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. 
    • 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.
