I realize how important sacks are.  Sometimes if you have a great defensive on one side, and a good one on the other end ,, then the great one could get home more because of less double teams.. 

Then think of this,   17 games, and lets use a arbitrary number of 25 ,, the QBs throw 25 times a game.  You say that time the 17 game and that's 425 times your GREAT pass rusher  has a shot at the QB .    If he gets 12 sacks a year ,,  that means he gets home   0.028 % of the time.  Or once every 35 times the QB drops back.  

Crazy money for salaries based on "sacks" .    

Gawd I hope my numbers are right lol..

The same people whining about not wanting to pay him will whine about the result of not paying him.

I mean, we aren't in win now mode.  We are in developing Bryce Young build around him mode.  

If you have a good front office....you should be able to generate pressure in a 3-4 scheme with a well built roster.   Without breaking the bank on any one player IMO.   And it should be a couple years before we are legitimately trying to make a run so we have some time to build up the roster as well.

for 120+ guaranteed? I'd rather go pay for a proven dominant DT and a dominant pass rusher.    Because you can get 2 for the same price.  Roster management. 

the best DTs have just been signed for 60.  And some of the best pass rushers in the game just signed for less than 60.  Market hasn't been flipped on it's head because of Bosa.  The other Bosa, Garrett, and Mack already were getting stupid 100+ guaranteed. 

end of the day, I'd rather have a well built roster than a handful of studs.  That's always been a Panther problem.

that the problem with over emphasizing stats in general, they don’t reflect the actual impact. Pass rushers do more than just get sacks. Just to name a couple other ways they impact, pressures lead to bad throws (incompletions and interceptions). Double teams lead to other players being able to make an impact.  There’s a lot more to it than “they get a sack .028% of the time”.  It’s also why DTs can command high salaries despite usually not getting much on the stat sheet, and why even ones who aren’t Donald are still extremely valuable and expensive despite not showing up on the stat sheet much.

I don't disagree with you..  It's why I mentioned , who is playing on the other end of the defensive line determines how many double teams the Great Pass Rusher gets.   There's a lot more than sacks ..  but it seems to be the big stat we constantly hear.   How many teams design plays away from the defensive end,, etc.  But someone in management of these teams finds sacks very important.

we were bottom half of the league in pressure %, knockdown %, hurry %

There's only a few teams with a well built roster. 49ers and Eagles come to mind.

 

That's what happens when you draft well every year. You simply have to pay your elite stars on your team. Burns happens to be the best player on the team. Pay him and get it over with. We are in no position to lose our best player right now.

I would argue the team was lead by Rhule. Just like the years our offense was bad under Cam wasn’t because he’s not a great QB. There’s only so much that players can compensate for shitty leadership.

I would say there are a lot more than 2 well built rosters in the NFL.

      Panthers need to move on from Young ASAP

      By strato · Posted

      38 seconds in tells me he is full of poo and is spinning for clicks. You know how they say in court, where if they lie once you can assume they are lying always?  To me is doing a pretty spiteful thing I think, by putting those words in someone's mouth. Unless he knows that is true. Which I doubt. An honest person would not have said that to Tepper, so he basically assaulting Canales. It is not Canales' fault that Young will not adhere to the the coaching he was obviously given. And of course I am referring to that Buffalo series and the very noticeable footwork change. Evidence that he had the opportunity to be a better player but reverted to his wonky ass 'techniques'. Because it is fuging hard not to. But that is still on Young for not getting that done. And unless he gets it done he is just a fraud. A wannabe NFL quarterback, playing at it. I mean NFL quarterbacks are kicking his ass, even the rookies.  If he works to change this steadily he may be able to get it ingrained in a couple more months. That is as optimistic as I can be for him.  Riddick though, I don't don't listen to sports talk any more except what youtube clips I like but I used to think pretty highly of him. This is pretty sad, to see this scapegoating.  I can put words into Canales mouth too: "Mr Tepper, I have a pretty good feel for working with these guys, and have had some luck with it. You know Baker pretty well. That's my work with him.  But I have to be honest, I'm not sure i can promise I can fix Bryce. He has many challenges. There are things we can do to help but so much of it is up to him. If he is willing to listen and work, I am sure we can make him a better QB. How good will be up to him."   blah blah blah blah

      When dementia gripped my grandmother (and eventually took her), we each spent time with her and would try to correct her to what was reality and what wasn't. It was very tough on my Dad who she lived with for as long as they could care for her.  It seemed like she had become detached from her own timeline and would slide up and down it wildly. As my Dad said, "somedays I'm me to her, somedays I'm my Dad, somedays I'm her father, somedays I'm just the guy who works here. I tried correcting her but it just upset her. I found out that the best thing is to just not correct her and let her live out where ever and whenever she is."  And I'm not going to lie, it gets tough and eventually they leave their own timeline and it becomes unmanageable. Hold on to yourself and the ones you love through it all. Prayers for you and yours, man.
