Nobody’s over the top so either Boston fugged up or it’s a bad zone. 

Boston has a habit of putting himself out of position. He always has. Maybe he wasn't on that play, but it's been an issue for him dating back to his college days.

Some of these guys don’t have a good feel for these zone coverages yet. Which makes executing zone damn near impossible

Think ill put my $$ on Boston fugging up over a bad play call by the DC leaving a guy that open over the top.

The issue is though it's not a one off thing. This happens to snow's zones week after week.

I saw that live and immediately facepalmed. 

They left the TE wide open repeatedly on the drive. Typical of the soft zone coverage that we seem to prefer.

But is this because players arent making the right play or read week after week?

 

Because the film shows the players being placed in the right area, theyre just not making the plays.

 

If a QB misses wide open guys week after week, is it the QB or the OC.  Should we just kept Jimmy Clausen after 2010 and just replaced some of the staff?

I was thinking yesterday, as we were watching it live and all knew what was going to happen, which did...  I get what Snow is trying to do, but at some point, just bring the pressure.  He figures we aren't getting there anyway, we're better off dropping more into coverage and try to take away their options...  problem is, when you drop 8 into coverage and they still are getting wide open, then you just have guys standing out there doing nothing.  Exhibit A.

If it happens week after week... Since week one and doesn't work either because of players or scheme, thats on the coach. Then we go 4+ rush and man coverage and ball out. Then we go back to the thing that isn't working. Thats on the coach. End of the day this is on snow and I think we've already hit his ceiling.

Not that it's directly related to Snow, but in Panthers history, have we ever really been able to cover a TE?

No.

I think there's a direct correlation between this and our historic ignoring of the safety positions.

This . You could make an argument the coaching was responsible for errors in time management and situational play calling but I mostly blame this loss on the players, specifically Bridgewater and Slye. Better play from both of them and the game wouldn’t have been close.
