For those that will watch the replay of the Vikings game.

A couple of things I'm interested in.

Take a look at the formations when the sacks happened.  How was the rb blocks?

How many 5-7 step drops? How many times we snapped right at 0:0?

I'm sure there's more. 

Thanks in advance.

You'll notice fozzy/CAP or whomever really struggling in pass pro

you'll notice both tackles reportedly losing one on one matchups

you'll notice lots of green dog blitzes from the middle linebacker because the panthers aren't sending anyone out in dump offs

just an awful performance from all angles

This.  Shula was thoroughly outcoached for 3 quarters.  We dont have the tackles to run these drawn out plays where Cam holdsthe ball for 7 seconds

Yeah from memory of watching the rbs just whiff in pass protection.

"Penalties and turnovers are killing the Panthers. With 10 penalties for 65 yards against Minnesota, the Panthers have committed 26 for 215 yards in three games. One of those cost Carolina a 56-yard touchdown catch by Fozzy Whittaker that could have made it 17-2 early in the second quarter against the Vikings. Those kind of mistakes kept the 49ers close last week into the fourth quarter and allowed Minnesota to win.The Panthers also had three interceptions on Sunday, giving quarterback Cam Newton five in three games. He had only two in the first three games a year ago. The Panthers have lost three fumbles this season as compared to none this time a year ago. They are the kind of mistakes that could keep an inferior team like the Falcons, this week's opponent, within striking distance. -- David Newton"

 

My concern for this team is how we perform when things are not going well. Shula turned in a outstanding performance when things were going well last year. 15-1 Record attests to that. But when things went sideways - Atlanta, Denver, Denver, & now Minnesota, but when things breakdown: Punt return td, too many turnovers, we jump out to too big of a lead, things seem to fall apart. I can't quite put a finger on it, but I am sure everyone here feels it. It's like we need to get a sports psychologist for Shula.

We need to pick up tempo definitely.. we allow defenses to settle in too much

Most undisciplined Panthers team during the Rivera era.

on the play where the vikings got a free run at cam fozzy was lined up to block him but immediately ran to the right side of the pocket when the ball was snapped. the rusher came from the left and folded cam.

not sure if that was fozzy's fault or not. he's a pretty reliable blocker

I also noticed the olines inability to recognize and "claim" delayed blitzers....it seemed that on numerous occasions the oline could not get on the same page with who was who's responsibility....these are instincts you develop through time playing together so I don't get the disconnect

That makes me think they dont practice against delayed blitzes like that. It doesnt make any sense to me but thats what comes to mind first.

[Fox007]

We are making it insanely easy on decent defenses....like EH said....they send that blitz and we have no dumpoff like literally every other team has.

I mean...these teams will oblige and oblige and oblige until hey look we gave up like 8 sacks for real....huh what happened? at least that's SHulas thought...the rest of us know wtf happened. fugin worst OC mind I've ever seen.

See, I'm afraid a lot of our players are like we're still in 2015 season, standing at 15-1. Wake up guys. We're officially in 2016 and we're standing at 1-2. A lot of the teams we're facing this season are more challenging than the ones from last season. We're playing very sloppy, especially once we're in the 2nd half. I'm not saying we're done for the season, just need to play with better discipline and dedication. No more dumb penalties, no more sloppy turnovers, don't rely on Benji so much, practice the playbook. Everyone doubted us last year. Just play exactly like that.
