Coach's Film Tuesday - Cardinals at Panthers

[Jeremy Igo]

Each week when NFL Gamepass released the coach's film of the previous game, I like to have a look and see who did well... and who did not so well. 

This week should be a bit more positive than weeks before. 

As I review, I will post items of note. 

Begin.... 

A look at the Panthers plan against the run. Run blitz on the left, forcing them to try to stop KK Short with one lineman. KK beats his man badly and gets the tackle for loss.

Another run stuff, so important in this game early. If the Cardinals could run the ball, would have been a much different result. 

Credit Kyle Love and Leonard Johnson. Love beat his man and Johnson stayed home and contained. Solid play by the two.

Nice. Really like this addition to the forum. Good stuff.

Thomas Davis fumble recovery and touchdown. 

Interesting... Kyle Love the nose tackle gets a double. Star the under tackle (usually KK's spot) beats his man forces the fumble. Star needs to be paid. He is the best lineman on the team.

Cam Newton sack. 

Fozzy Whitaker wide open in the flat for a big gainer. Cam doesn't see it. Lots of pressure coming from the right. Missed opportunity.

Star pushed that dude back 5 yards

How much? What if it comes down to a decision between Star and KK? 

Star FTW! His asking price will likely be reasonable, and he is more key to the line, and perhaps harder to replace.

I think the highest paid NT is around 10M per year. I would rather pay Star 10M per your then pay KK 17M per year. Plus we can use the extra 7M for Norwell.

He's like a grizzly bear in hibernation. He was the silent scary beast last year, now he has awaken.

Daryl Worley sack. Joe P says it was a missed penalty. I am not sure. Looks like he is grabbing the leg which I believe is legal, just not putting helmet or shoulders into leg. I could be wrong. 

 

RULE BOOK

 

A rushing defender is prohibited from forcibly hitting in the knee area or below a passer who has one or both feet on the
ground, even if the initial contact is above the knee. It is not a foul if the defender is blocked (or fouled) into the passer and
has no opportunity to avoid him.
Notes:
(1) A defender cannot initiate a roll or lunge and forcibly hit the passer in the knee area or below, even if he is being
contacted by another player.
(2) It is not a foul if the defender swipes, wraps, or grabs a passer in the knee area or below in an attempt to tackle him,
provided he does not make forcible contact with the helmet, shoulder, chest, or forearm.

With Star's impact and seeming resurgence last game, a lot of it seems to be how he was used.  It makes me wonder...  has Star had this ability to pressure all these years and simply hasnt gotten the opportunity because he wasnt used as the UT or set up to excel due to scheme?

Definitely makes it a tough deciwion about who gets paid and how much, moving forward.  Star was absolutely wrecking shop Sunday.

Don't really see this as a big gainer and definitely nowhere close to a first down. I think this was like 3rd and forever. Fozzy maybe gets 5-7 yards.

My god, isn't this what we all envisioned for Funchess this year? Quick passes over the middle. More of this please.
