Biggest Disadvantage from Lock-Out

[Seltzer]

Red Zone Offense... no question in my mind

This team has been borderline great across the 20's. The compactness of the red zone makes everything harder and timing much more important, and that I think is where you can see the lack of practice time rearing its ugly head.

The Panthers could be 3-0 had they not come up short in the red zone. The Panthers are 7th in yards but only 17th in points.

That is huge. The good news I think is that they have the talent and offensive scheme to move the ball almost at will. Once the team gels more in the red zone, the Panthers are going to be a truly formidable offensive team.
