I counted three (3) "missed" throws, one that could've gone for a TD, one that would've fallen short of the sticks on 3rd down, and one that would've gone for a 1st down.

Young started the game 12-18 (67%) for 91 yards, TD, INT, but finished it 8-20 (45%) for 55 yards and an INT. Some other things I noticed:

- quick screen to Shenault worked great. Was never run again
- Bryce's biggest mistake on his first pick was not taking the 8-yard completion to Mingo
- Needs to look Mingo's way more, the 3rd-and-8 pickup was a great play by QB and WR

we got no speed to threaten vertically.  And if a D doesn’t respect the threat …..it makes coverage easier.  Because you end up taking half the guessing out of the equation for a DB.  They know everything is in front of them and play it that way.

Our deep threat was out today, but Mingo should've had a 99 yard TD with a better throw and TMJ should've had a deep catch with a better route ran.

Those route concepts are pretty awful. A lot easier to cover when all the receivers are roughly at the same depth of the field.

Thank You!


Was saying this during the game thread plenty of times. Frank needs to find something else that gets players in different spots on the field. The routes just never looked good on the field imo.

I have no Heisman Trophy and I have never worked for DoorDash in Tuscaloosa, but I would NOT throw deep to anyone on that fuging lineup today save for Jonathan Mingo. And even then it'd give me pause. Safeties were salivating at the deep ball with 7 in coverage.

We're gonna be angry at the OL next Monday when the sack total rises after NO blitzes more.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
