Wired: Brian Burns

[Pantherxtreme]

Some good stuff, Panthers definitely got the steal of the draft. Burns is going to be a force in this league.

Thanks for sharing OP!

We have some nasty young talent. Burns, Jackson, Little, CMC, JB, Shaq, Moton, Samuel, Moore all look great. We need Ian Thomas and Scarlett out there getting some reps.

I'm getting that 2015 team chemistry vibe with this defense. Seems like everybody are really homies and competing to one up each other with a big play.

This D is going to be really special this year.

If we can prevent big gap runs, I think this defense could be historically good. 

I know Pats have a weak schedule but my god their D is ridiculously good right now. 

I want a Pats vs Panthers SB with us getting revenge!

Explains what he went to the locker room for. Got an x-ray on his wrist.

Beating the Pats in the Superbowl is my dream scenario.

It almost feels like Ron has said “screw run defense, we are all in on defending the pass because that is how offenses are putting up points”

The Packers look like they are doing something similar and the Eagles finally adjusted in the 2nd half against them and ran all over them in their comeback.

It has worked well for us so far. Teams have been able to run against us but it really hasn’t led to many points. Interested to see what Jax and Fournette do. He just had a huge game against the Broncos.

Thats was a good watch.  Kyle Love is probably my favorite on that.

That is my biggest concern!

 

I do not mind letting another team rack up rushing yds against us, but the explosive runs concern me.

Like how LF did against the Broncos.

Given how the NFL is so geared towards passing these days, this seems like a reasonably workable approach for the most part. Passes that give up big chunks of yards are far more common than runs that do.

Well we have something the Packers don’t. Luke Kuechly. I think Ron trusts Luke to limit those and prevent their big runs from overwhelming us.
