PFF: Trai Turner has regressed immensely. Newton isn't good under pressure (duh).

Top offensive grades:

QB Cam Newton, 79.3

C Gino Gradkowski, 79.3

RT Daryl Williams, 78.7

LT Mike Remmers, 77.0

WR Devin Funchess, 70.9

Rebuilt line still a work in progress

Much of Carolina’s success in 2015 was built on the physicality of its front five. Injuries have disrupted the group’s continuity and offensive production has suffered as a result. Mike Remmers still appears psychologically scarred from his Super Bowl beatdown at the hands of Denver’s Von Miller, and the move from right to left tackle hasn’t made things any easier. He has allowed 34 combined pressures this season, after giving up 56 in the entirety of 2015. Trai Turner also appears to have regressed, highlighted by an ugly beat in pass protection which saw him barely touch Chris Jones on his way to the quarterback. In only his sixth start, RT Daryl Williams experienced predictable hiccups in pass protection.

Solid day against mundane offense for Panthers’ defense

It wasn’t an out-of-this-world performance from the Carolina defense against Kansas City, but the Panthers held their own and provided their offense with opportunities to put this game away. Linebacker Luke Kuechly once again led the defense, tallying a team-high six stops on the day (a stop is a solo tackle which constitutes as a loss for the offense, given the situation), while also getting a hit on Chiefs QB Alex Smith and playing excellent defense in pass coverage. Rookie corner James Bradberry limited the receiver opposite him to just three catches on six targets for a total of 33 yards. Robert McClain allowed all three balls thrown into his coverage to be caught, but Chiefs receivers gained just 10 yards total on those three catches. Mario  Addison led the team with six total QB pressures, with one of those being a sack.

No defensive grades for us for some odd reason.

I don't believe those PFF grades for a second. Gradkowski played terrible yesterday. On that pick Cam threw he literally didn't block a soul.

He is also the reason Trai has taken a nose dive. Give Cam another real tackle and watch the man work .

    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game to go around   and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important.
