Ron Rivera mentioned post game yesterday that they go over the same thing every day in practice and that certain people still do not get it an execute. Who do you think gets benched this upcoming week and who gets more snaps going forward? 

Quite from Ron: “I feel that we have some holes to fill on the football team, and we’ve got some positions that we need to look at and continue to get speed,” said Rivera after the game. “That, I think, is the biggest thing. We’re starting to see the importance of it, and the significance of it when we play fast. We need to give ourselves the opportunity to be successful.” 

But Carolina’s ability to first play fast on defense, and then match that with consistent execution, has been placed on a milk carton — the contents of which went sour way back in Week 10, in a now-infamous drubbing by Pittsburgh. 

What new faces will we see next week?

Think Ron will use Donte as a SCAPEGOAT. So watch for Elder or the next corner (I cant name) to start. 

 

Ron might be dumb but he ain't that dumb.   

Ron can pretty much scapegoat the entire DL and our S.   He has no reason to get that desperate to go after our most promising young defender in the secondary in over a decade.

At this point it's like rearranging chairs on a sinking ship.

We won't know what we actually have until we get a new staff with a new philosophy in here.

But man if we give Ron another year I'm done. Charlotte sports are too demoralizing.

We'll be picking No. 1 in 2020 if we keep Ron.

Donte Jackson sucks. Hate to break it to you and all of you on his nuts. He gets consistently burned and was picked on yesterday. He's 5'11 and not a starting outside corner. We need a veteran playmaker next year and to move him to nickel. He'd be perfect covering slot receivers.  He's basically a better captain munnerlyn.

We need to draft a whole secondary— 

it did take a few seasons for Josh Norman,..

i hate losing too and I was on the get Akunamara-sp- and others we now see in Chicago etc but Jackson is a great talent— just needs development.

our whole defense has SUCKED this year— that doesn’t just happen to a top 15 defense the last few seasons—it’s Rivera and Washington—

rivera can be a DC, but not a DC and HC—notice our defense was top 10, then top 15 at least with wilkes and now pud with Rivera and Washington..

oh plus our team is losing key situational football,..

Cut Funchess, Poe, and Munnerlyn. Let Doss play, bring up Kendrick Norton, and then whoever to fill the 3rd spot. Don't think we need 6 WRs at this point anyway and cutting Funch will bring it to 5. Maybe bring up Vander Laan from the PS so that we'll have 3 TEs.

I'd also cut Ben Jacobs and bring up a LB from the PS, Brandon Chubb. He's supposed to be a special teams ace, but all he does is give us penalties every game.

At the very least, you see what we have in these young guys while at the same time trimming some of the fat.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of immature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.

      I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch

      What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.
