PFF: Panthers had one of the worst offensive line performances of our lifetime yesterday

I am still struggling to comprehend how we aren't at least giving BC playing time in every game.  It would be criminal to walk out of this season without knowing what we have in him.  I mean, in limited time, he's shown growth.  He even had a game where he looked average.

With this line, I'll take average.  A good coaching staff can work with average.

Monson: The Carolina Panthers offensive line is in danger of derailing the Sam Darnold reclamation project

I ran across this June2021 article pertaining to Sam Darnold and the Panthers inept offensive line and the mess he could be heading into at the time. I thought it interesting reading . Please clink on link to view.

I read that at the time and agreed at the time.

Unfortunately, it seems that Brady isn't the guru everyone thought he was.  Maybe a step up from Gase.  Maybe?

What we effectively did was talk ourselves into the idea that Sam's problem was the situation.  That's all fine and dandy, but what we followed up with was putting Sam back into nearly the exact same situation.  A line whose play demanded he be a very fast decision maker and a scheme that might not be very good.

Definition of insanity.

So much for the argument it's Darnolds fault. The Panthers o-line is worse than the Jet's  ever was when Darnold was there. And that's saying something. 

Darnold is absolutely part of the blame. He holds on to the ball and makes terrible reads when he has time. Our line last week was a disaster, but we have had a different combination every week (which is part of the problem). Tua’s line has been worse this season and he hasn’t looked nearly as bad as Sam.

Said it before and will say it again, cut all our guys cept Moron and sign whatever the best o-line in the CFL was in entirety: better line than what we have now.

You have to start at the top. The guys who drafting and the coaches. It appears that the Tepper train has jack knixed. Whole train gone off the track.

When they decided they were gonna try to rebuild Darnold, the absolute first priority should have been building a great offensive line.

What really sours me on Matt Rhule though is that I think in his mind, he believed that's what he was doing.

Why has the o line coach not been fired? A showing like that demands an immediate firing.

I think it'll probably happen at season's end. Could happen sooner I suppose, don't know.

Whether or not the problems are actually his fault would be a valid question.

It’ll be interesting if Rhule goes against his ‘I don’t fire coaching staff’ rule.

Bad players will turn in bad performances, but having a line turn in a historically bad performance is more than just bad players being bad. A ‘winning culture’ should have zero tolerance for that crap.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
