Ron Rivera's WFT had the perfect gameplan against the Panthers today

[electro's horse]

WFT controlled the clock with a solid running game that kept the offense off the field and their defense rested.

He counted on his biggest players (Heineke and McLaurin) to make big plays when they needed it.

They didn't miss any tackles. 

They didn't commit any costly penalties. 

They attacked Donte Jackson because Ron of all people knew what kind of player he was. 

Just outschemed and outplayed. 

Cam can still play tho.

[WOW!!]

And they still almost lost.. If 3rd and 26 is played better and Burns can complete a sack...

And down 2 DEs one being elite

And down 2 OL that got hurt one being a C

He played his type of game, the type of game Rhule claims he does as well.  He ran the ball and controlled the clock. 

Jackson and Bouye were exposed. Ron's offensive line outplayed our defensive line and exposed our small defensive ends. His offensive line also manhandled our linebackers on every run play. 

In short, we were manhandled in the trenches and abused in the secondary.  The defense couldn't measure up.

That 3rd down and a quarter of the field play was the biggest one of the game. Unbelievable that they didn't unleash the hounds there.

They need to use a few more from the looks of it.

Ron has always been a good coach with his initial game plan his weakness was when he had to change it and make adjustments mid game. We couldn't stop what they planned to do thus we got bullied.

Best defense is a good offense

They've been outplayed and beat up 3 games maybe this year .. With no help on offense.. This is still a highly rated defense.. Let's not be prioners of the moment..

We apparently have neither at the moment.  This team is still a .500 team even with Cam coming in to make them competitive.  

I'm counting on next season as the one that sets the tone.
