Any thoughts on how we're able to shut down the running game? Is it the d-line (I've seen Burns and Reddick very involved in run D rather than just existing as pass rush specialists), is Brown that good at clogging up the middle? Are our LBs playing like the second coming of the Three Horsemen (Luke, Davis and Thompson)? Big support from DBs and safeties?

Or is it just an overall explosion of motivation? The entire defense seems to take this personal that they will own the field. There are so many of them in on every tackle, very little standing around and being out of place. Playing with drive and desire.

Dang, this iteration of the Panthers has been long awaited!

Scheme and the personnel to execute said scheme. Our D is literally designed to shut down zone blocking schemes along the defensive line.

Yep, league is going to find out soon that this defense doesn't just shut down bad teams and teams having a bad day.

This defense creates bad days.

I wanted Derrick Brown because a guy like him changes everything.  There is a domino effect with a guy like that.

Fox as well, his ability to move from game and read the gaps and go to the right one while shedding blocks to get to the carrier is fuging insane. He's a great complimentary piece to Brown. They, along with YGM, are the ones doing the dirty work so the LB's and S's can run around, blitz or get to the runner if they break the first level.

I'm looking for Dallas to run a lot of 12 personnel. They tend to spread you out and go empty with it. 

And they will get run over if they do that. People have broken down how our defense actually forcese teams to do this and it allows them to become ferocious getting to the QB.

It's really designed to adapt. You put a hat on a hat it's bad news. You zone it's bad news. It's a combination of scheme and talent.

Haven't you heard?  Kamara forgot how to run and  the Saints OL forgot how to block during our game and didn't have the the defensive assistant coaches there to remind them how.  Poor sobs.

You forgot to mention that they were apparently down to 3rd string players on both sides of the ball minus Jameis and Kamara.

Oh, and Sean Peyton was the only coach available on all of Louisiana who didn't have the Roni 🙄

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
