I have to wonder why the Panthers refuse to utilize their running game more

[Fright]

The pass game is working too, yea I'm all about balance too, but it's not like Cam isn't holding his own with the passing game. It'd be different if Cam wasn't doing too hot and we turned away from the run, but that's not the case.

We should worry about our defense A LOT more than anything going on on offense.

We scored 29 points. You cant really say we left 14 points on the field because there is no guarantee we would have scored a TD if we ran 3 straight times. 29 points should be enough to win the game.

it's not about "running 3 straight times" it's about some semblance of making a team respect the run by utilizing it...

you're right our offense may not have lost the game but it didn't win it either.

We definitely abandoned the run! We were gashing them big time.

Sorry but redzone execution by the offense IS a problem... no, not our biggest one, but it's still an issue.

I think everyone agrees with that. But if Smith catches the pass and Shockey isn't called for a penalty, we would have been very successful scoring and likely would have won the game.
