The Saints Blitz Better Than Us

Gregg Williams would blitz himself if he could, the best thing about today has been our d-line. they're getting good pass rush and shutting down the run.

Well enjoy this year because it seems no NFC south team can win the division twice in a row. You probably will be at the bottom again next year. But Williams was a great pickup. To bad we didn't getting him.

Fans love blitzing, but a smart OC can exploit it by going to screens, draws and three-step drops. What you gain in pressure, you lose in coverage.

Generating pressure with only the front four is the best way to go, if you can do it. Truth be told though, if you have to resort to blitzing to get pressure, you likely have issues.

If we got better interior pass rush, I wouldn't give a flying rip whether we blitzed or not.

      Brian Burns Revenge Game

      I sure do miss the days of having guys like Cam, Luke, Peppers, Olsen, Steve Smith etc who were faces of the franchise and could dominant games. I hope we can soon find and develop future faces of the franchise like the past guys and find a strong identity with some game changers on defense.

      BREAKING:Panthers re-sign Chuba Hubbard

      By Ricky Spanish · Posted

      People comparing this deal to CMC, Williams, or Stewart is laughable, and I'll break the numbers down as to why: In 2020 We made CMC the highest paid RB ever. We gave him a $64 million over 4 years with $38 million guaranteed. That's $16 million on average. In 2011 we extended Williams, then in 2012 we extended Stewart. These extensions were 12 and 13 years ago: Williams - 5 years, $43 Million, $25 Million Guaranteed, Average of $8.6 Million per year Stewart - 5 years, $36 Million, $23 Million Guaranteed, Average of $7.3 Million per year Let me do the math for you: The Salary Cap in 2020 when we Signed CMC was $198.2 Million. CMC accounted for 8% of our total cap that season. The Salary Cap in 2012, when we had both Williams and Stewart under contract, was $120.6 Million. Those two combined to take up 13.1% of our total cap that season. Without the cap going up next season (and it will) Chuba is taking up 3.2% of our total cap. That's it. Not only are we paying Chuba HALF of what we were paying CMC per year, and LESS than what we paid Williams over a decade ago, the overall cap percentage shows how much less significant the contract extension is compared to those other moves. I really am not following how people are calling this contract a "big" money contract on a running back and a waste of cap space. This is a solid starting RB contract in the modern NFL.

      Yeah Brown was shown to be a lot more important even in his second year
