Armanti Running With The #1s

[Panthers128]

what a joke of a team.

man none of these guys can get open......we are so screwed....its sad when the best WRs on your team are the tight ends

[Chaos]

Yep you would think with at least one TE out wide if they stack 9 in the box we'd have a quick completion in space somewhere on the field.

In theory yes, but Jimmy has to learn to shift a little bit. 7 or 8 guys rushing in, 6 or 7 blocking, that's a lot of hands and helmets in the way. The short passes get no air underneath them, he's got to do a better job of finding the creases to throw through.

the way they are blitzing on third downs the middle of the field should be wide open....i dont understand

[pantherclaw]

I didn't know if it was going to be Clowney or Armanti. If it was Clowney, it was definitely going to be a huge tell as to what they think of Armanti.

The front office and the coaches view him as a project, regardless of the playing time.

Its fans like you, that can't grasp that, then say poo like you did, grasping at straws so you can continue to hate the pick and the player.

[Mother Grabber]

Maybe he finally figured out how to catch a punt.

lol hell yea we're screwed. I expect a lot of running being done by Clausen, cause nobody is going to get open. This is so sad, its comical now. I dont know if we'll score anything this weekend. How does the FO let it get this bad

well, I don't blame the FO completely. Fox can only play one style of football. He can't adapt. You give Belichick this roster and he would move out of this playaction garbage sending WRs deep downfield. He would put more options on the field and spread things out. Double Trouble are dangerous options even when not lined up to pound the rock in standard running formations. So getting out of these old and repeative formation doesn't minimize what they can do.

[Happy Panther]

Sometimes I literally feel like I should see fifteen flags for too many men on the field. I'm like, "How the hell can they send fourteen guys, bracket Steve Smith and have a high safety over him, and then double-cover all the other receivers?"

Then I realize our offense is just that anemic.

seriously

[DaCityKats]

why dont we hot route any, to beat the blitz.is it me or does it take entirely to long for our routes to be ran.

[Seamonk]

Not all, but some of the blitzes we adjusted right before the snap, so there was like a split second to adjust. Gregg Williams sees a young QB and was throwing different zone blitzes and coverages at him. Many of which didn't appear to be blitzes until right before the snap.

Regardless, SOMEONE has to get open. We spread 4 WRs, they won't be able to send the house anymore. It'll be more of a "get that ball out fast to the open guy" deal.

Just poor play calling. Facing an overload blitz and all our WRs are running deep long-developing routes. We usually only have one hot read and if that's covered then the play is doomed before it even starts. Screens and quick slants tend to neutralize a heavy pass rush but we don't bother more than once a game.

Sooner or later one of these recievers will find a way to get open.
