The Way Too Early Evaluation

Recommended Posts

So the first half is over. Here's what we know about our offense.

 

- Dalton is damn good at just playing the QB position. Our run game has complimented him. 

- the OL is good, but not flawless. Exotic blitzes hurt us 

- our WR position has talent! DJ is also savvy enough to make guys miss and get out of bounds. 

- Bryce is either sitting until Dalton retires a Panther or he's traded.

Continuation

 

 

- Dalton really is that fuging dude. No, I have no expectations that he's winning us a Superbowl. But I do think we can be a playoff team with him.

- Johnson is clearly our best receiver, but they've all looked strong today. 

- Run blocking is there. We seem to struggle zone blocking but our assignment schemes are all solid. Recognizing our strengths there will be key.

- defensively, our coverage is not bad but there's holes. We need to figure out if it's scheme where we're just playing bend but don't break or if it's just lack of skill consistency.

- special teams is solid. We've kept the field this entire game because the drives that stalled resulted in strong punts and field goals.

- Canales can actually coach. He hasn't backed off the game plan with a lead in the third. We're not seeing the more intermediate game as much, but we're definitely still slinging the rock

Hubbard is also proving to be a really solid RB.  Pairing him with Brooks could be a really nice tandem once our 2nd rounder shows up.  

Legette is looking sharp. 

IOL is looking strong.

Icky has shown he's a road grader again 

Jewell can show up at times

Mike Jackson is a dude at CB

 

 

Hubbard and Brooks are gonna be a problem. Ship Sanders to whatever team for a ham sandwich as soon as Brooks gets off IR

Very balanced offense. DC can call a game. Our pass rush needs a lot of work. 

 

 

While I agree, I appreciate that our pass rush is disciplined. They're not giving any lanes to escape and they're not getting whooped. For sure we need some beaters to emerge, but for what it is, I'll take it over 3 or 4 guys just trying to get off blocks and not caring where they end up

    • You got the gist of his main issue. He plays LB or whatever on D, but hates to tackle and contact. That's the summary.  I normally have a wide margin of " Hey vet min/bring him for try out/maybe he changed/etc etc". But he can not be trusted, * but he did just have his "best" season. He's like those RB that refuse to run between the tackles, bounce everything outside...they too are scared of contact. That's like the whole point of NFL, he's able to trick and athlete his way for 5 years, props to his and his agent.  Me personally I view him like virus, I wouldn't want him on film shying away from hitting while the rookies&UDFA are looking for how the Panthers do things. Plus Im the biggest sucker there is about giving former 1st, 2nd, etc another chances. Just not someone who doesn't want to play NFL and fools those with his god given gifts.  ____________________________________________________________   \ Not to add another layer to this, but I feel contact and hitting its the biggest problem for the NFL. I sorta agree with TEs, WRs, and RBs either going out of bounds or falling to the ground to avoid a solid hit(this goes out the window for 1st downs, SB, etc.) Like if a WR caught a deep slant and already gained 17 yards, but here comes a safety with a great angle, Im all for that WR to fall on the ground...... ugh...... But I think the opposite for my defense. I feel this topic is central sun hot and NFL has done a great job in avoiding it. Im surprised NFL is still allowed, I have huge doubts in the future. 
    • not sure if carolina picks a WR in this draft, they have some young WR already and will let them develop. Need another vet imo.  I think carolina is going to pass more to the RB's this coming season, look for them to move heaven and earth for Cam Skatteboo.  I really hope they go TE Warren in the 1st. That would add another dynamic to this offense.
    • If we miss this guy It's as bad as last year. He is really good. Like easily  he could be Ladd Mckonnkey say that's not a good comp.
