Is the defense TOO multiple?

I don’t want to sound rude but come on dude. All great defenses do this on occasion. If you always a rushing your down lineman and have great coverage down field the flat will always be open. If you are aware that the opponent is over using their check down options sometimes you have to pop out with a DE or 3-4 OLB. This has been done for years, all the great DEs have done it and gotten interceptions or passes defended.

Lol my bad, anytime I see David Newton I can’t read anymore. That’s why I didn’t wanna sound rude because you’ve been around a while. Can we petition ESPN to force this guy into early retirement and just get Smitty or a Panther great to cover us. Hell Geoff Schwartz would be perfect the more I think about it.

Wasn't even Newton. Just some ESPN writer. Read the article and it will make you even more upset. It's an article about the game in which we are barely featured.

Real talk though, shows how much ESPN knows about our roster. The fuging write up about our game was 100% about Haskins.

I watched the Steelers stream for a little bit - they had  no clue who Burns was. Or anyone on our roster really. 

The disrespect was real. They were blatantly reading nameplates on jerseys.

I think that probably tells the story of that Brian Burns for defensive MVP bet.........

Whelp. Gotta build that rep. It starts in 15 days.

Seems like a waste of an MVP caliber DE to have him playing CB, although he did snag an INT.......

In all seriousness though. Yes. I don’t think we can carry him at CB. Too much competition, he doesn’t seem to have the proper physique and skill set to play CB.

    • He might have a lucky sack then crickets the rest of the game.
    • Panthers' Bryce Young took a significant step forward in Week 9 Bryce Young is back as the Carolina Panthers‘ starting quarterback, and he is fresh off his best performance of the season. It was an encouraging showing — one that resulted in only the Panthers' second win — for a young quarterback who was previously benched. Highest-Graded Quarterbacks in Week 9 Young finished Week 9 against the New Orleans Saints with a 77.8 PFF overall grade, his highest grade this season and the third-highest of his career. His stat line doesn’t look overly impressive, but a major reason for that is his two big-time throws being dropped and intercepted — two unlucky plays that would have made his box score better reflect his performance. There’s no hiding that the Panthers' offense has struggled with Young under center. The 2023 No. 1 overall pick looked lost and broken in his first two starts of 2024, but after five weeks as a backup, he seems to have found his confidence again, putting together his two best performances of the season since returning to helm the offense. It took until the second quarter for the Panthers' offense to get going in Week 9, but a big third-down conversion led to their first touchdown of the game. https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-carolina-panthers-bryce-young-significant-step-forward-week-9
    • This is likely a loss. Just look at the stats of their last game; 26 pass attempts versus 31 runs. Daboll knows well enough not to put everything on Daniel Jones. They'll likely stick to that ratio and only have Jones throw a safe pass or two along with a scramble. A big factor with the Saints is that we somehow found a way to stop their first two drives from being touchdowns, and even forced a three and out or two. That's going to be really hard to replicate, and regardless of QB, we just lack enough offensive power to get into a shootout, especially with our O-line not at full strength. I kinda expect our line to utter collapse and Canales utterly refusing to not go pass happy against a defense much more suseptible to the run. But hey, I'd like to be proven wrong. Maybe Canales will decide to throw Brooks out there for his debut and we end up with the reincarnation of Double Trouble. If we somehow win, that's my guess on how.
