So the Defense...

[chknwing]

I cant even remember any of the high dollar defensive players names being called much.  This game was bad for the offense but even more so for the defense.  Allowing a division rival to run up the score is inexcusable.  Defense is suppose to be the stength of the team and it was god awful today.

But Clowney is home!

The rush defense was the bad part. Carr only threw for 200 yards and 60 of them were on the busted play. 

The defense probably is uninspired because of how terrible the offense looks to be already

It's Evero. When has he ever had success over an entire season? That defense is horribly prepared with communication & fundamentals.

There aren't any strengths to this team. Worst teams in the league are the worst because there are no strengths. It could be even worse though, we could've won the Watson bidding war, so there is a bright spot.

Haha I didn't see how he performed specifically; but I did see after a lot of bad plays on Defense he was the clear leader telling them to step up.

Brown is the only high dollar defensive player.

This unit has been gutted and all of the resources invested in the offence (what we've paid those two OGs is obscene).

There's very little NFL talent on that side of the ball this season.

He damn near got pancaked by a WR.

Derrick Brown looked like he got paid and quit.  Hopefully he turns it around.  He got called out by the broadcasters.

Panthers…where you come to collect a paycheck and go home

Our defensive line is as bad as I figured it would be.

I thought the run D would be much better. I don’t know. I honestly half heartedly watched it and just got to the point I didn’t want to rewatch much so I didn’t get a lot of out it. 
 

If I did rewatch I would try to find a couple of spots where guys made business decisions after the score got to a place. 

As far as OP, I never thought that the defense was considered a strength this year. It was downgraded and they admitted they are waiting for someone to take the job in two positions. 
I might be able to stomach watching later this week because it is something I’d like to look at… how the defense did. 
 

I wasn’t too upset when it went to 7-0 because I missed the busted TD play. I had figured NO would do well with the first scripted set of plays.

Always heard Carolina was a great place to retire. Seems like that's all we do these days. Coaches and players alike
