Urgency intensifies for Panthers' defense

Those defensive stats are troubling...

If we played an easier schedule I would be optimistic but it really doesn't get any easier. This game against Dallas is a must win for us which isn't good considering they are coming off a loss and Romo usually plays pretty well against us. The only good thing is that they don't have TO anymore. The bad news is they still have Roy Williams and Jason Witten. If another TE freakin torches us again I am going to be pissed...

This team needs to get it together this week or the season for all intents and purposes is over.

this goes along with beason saying that he isn't fluid with meek's system.

The team is 0-2 and the defense still hasn't fully grasped the system installed by new defensive coordinator Ron Meeks.

Strong safety Chris Harris said Monday the defense needs to find the cohesion that's been missing “soon, before it's too late.”

The new defense features a Cover 2 zone pass system, which has proven effective elsewhere and which Meeks used in Indianapolis in partnership with former Colts coach Tony Dungy.

Defensive tackle Damione Lewis descrbied the defense as a “totally different system” from what former coordinator Mike Trgovac employed.

Harris said it's been a good change, albeit gradual.

the defense should be somewhat improved on monday. i would hope that the light goes on during the bye week when they are practicing if it doesn't happen before.

i'm just ready for them to stop sucking.

Well, I hope it's 'totally different', because I didn't see much defense out of Trgo's 'system' last year, especially in the later games. It stands to reason that some time will be needed to adjust to what Meeks has installed. If our offense can come together when the defense does, we may be alright. Of course, the STs need to provide some real coverage on kicks. Time will tell.

have you noticed that mr peppers stands around with his hands on his hips, so his knees wont get hurt, panthers should have sent the idiot walking and got someone who wants to play, as long as king julius stands around and makes his mil a game, the panthers will not only lose, but get creamed, by the way how about the clemson tigers defense, cant wait to we play sc in columbia, it will be a tought night for crazy spurrier

BY THE WAY I WAS AT TRAINING CAMP IN SPARTANBURG AND ALL PEPPERS DID WAS STAND AROUND WITH HIS HANDS ON HIS HIPS, HE JUST NEEDS TO GO, WISH I HAD A 90 JERSEY, I WOULD BURN IT IN EFIGY!

PEPPERS NEEDS TO GO OR SIT ON THE DAMN BENCH, HE SU???S

FOX AINT MUCH BETTER, WAS AT THE EAGLE GAME AND WHAT A MESS.

DALLAS AND THEN LOOK AT THE REST OF THE SCHEDULE, NEW ORLEANS WILL KILL US

LETS GO 1-15 WITH NO FIRST ROUND DRAFT PICS, WHAT A JOKE THE CAROLINA MANAGEMENT IS AND GER BILL COWHER IN HERE!!!

Defensive scheme looks exactly the same as it did last year, don't really see how the guys could be confused. It's a basic cover 2 scheme, we've seen it before, and we've used it before, I really don't understand how the players could be lost in this system. I think it's more of just overall poor coaching and average talent defensively.

      BREAKING:Panthers re-sign Chuba Hubbard

      By KillerKat · Posted

      Morgan still has a little John Fox in him. Got to value those RBs even though they have been devalued for around a decade now. Never go more than 2-3 years on a contract unless he is a superstar, never pay high money and never draft a RB high unless you are set everywhere else. We failed on the first and third rules.

      BREAKING:Panthers re-sign Chuba Hubbard

      By Basbear · Posted

      This is some good solid logic. I still go back to the teams think tank and it includes the current Dan Morgan, each looked over the roster of holes and came to a clear conclusion that the RB needed improving. They could have gave the same 2022 Miles contract to Hubbard, but didn't. Next up Morgan trades up for a RB with sanders and Hubbard here in his last year. While the edge group is lead bye Charles "panthers are the only team that wanted me " harris Hubbard keeps grinding and improves along with the OL, *now* months after seeing brooks on the field and watching hub get like 5.1 ypc...the brain trust goes and gives him a updated miles contract.........Just a odd timeline of events, I believe all of us can agree on that. Just the market is at the lowest its ever been for RBs and this team is 2-7 with other losing seasons with hubbard chugging along as a cheap rookie. I do agree with you sorta need 2 starting level RBs, so use a mid-rounder or sign one in FA for 2-4 per. Hubbard signed for more than King Henry, sure age and all. Id still want Henry for 8per over 2 years than hubbard 8.3 over 2(his cut point) Honestly part of is still pissed form the Herniay era and spending top draft picks and top level cap space on RBs. I love the guy but they even signed toldozer for upper money with stew and dwill, just poor management of resources. Now 20 years later, history repeats while the league is laughing at the Panthers. I want to over spend and over use draft capital on WRs, edge, and DL. At they rotate and play at the same time, panthers never used stew and dwill at the same time while both were top 5 paid. ugh
