Starting to see a pattern with these field goals: Mare two for four, short from 51. Medlock four for four plenty of distance from 51

is someone keeping tabs in here as far as hits/misses between these two.

it seems like most practices medlock is doing better and the most mare has been able to do is tie medlock on the day. looking like medlock is pretty well in the lead.

rivera better get over his man love over former ex chargers scrubs. there is no way that piece of garbage tutu is the 3rd receiver, he shouldnt be on the damn team.

Agreed, Murphy needs to be the third receiver this Friday night. Lafell better watch out also.

CB Josh Norman caps two minute drill with a leaping INT in front of TE Greg Olsen.

Josh Norman picks off cam. Good play by Norman came off his receiver to jump the throw to Olsen.

Josh Norman makes a nice pick on Cam.

Carolina's three CBs in nickel defense: Chris Gamble, Captain Munnerlyn and Josh Norman.

Good pressure from Johnson and McClain on Cam to make him throw it away

had to clean that up to make my eyes hurt less. :)

I am confident that Medlock is the better placekicker. But, is he the better kickoff specialist? That short kickoff to the 10 yard line, gave up a touchdown in the preseason game. We can't have that. Hopefully it was a fluke.

If the Kickoff team could tackle, it wouldn't have been a TD. The coaching staff needs to start valuing points over kickoffs. Reports through out training camp said Medlock was kicking them into the endzone on every kick. Im pretty sure it was a fluke. Even if he has one bad KO every once in a while, I would be happy knowing that he can be reliable in tight games. The KO team should be able to tackle a returner. There's just no excuse for that.

If Medlock can work on his kickoffs he should win the job, hands down.

considering the leg that guy has, there should be no short kicks like there was saturday. only reason i can think of is to see how the coverage units handle them. imo, holliday is about as good a test as you can have. that kid is a bullet. unfortunately we failed that one. i just don't know that the intention was to allow him a chance to return it.

AGREE!!!!

I will go out of my mind and Tutu is given the No.3 WR spot. RR better now make creating plays going to Tutu on a crucial third down like to how did with Naanee last year.

RR always bring the scrubs from SD but never want to sign a decent guy like a "Garay".

I'd be more inclined to believe that the kicker who has not been able to make in in the NFL for the past 5 years just botched the kick.

Rivera said Medlocks short kickoff that led to a TD was the biggest disappointment of the night.

      What's your confidence level in Canales?

      By flagfootballcoach28 · Posted

      Some of you who are not sold on Canales are insane. His main purpose was to turn around Bryce Young’s career and he did that. Of all of the teams in the top 10 of the NFL draft, we were the team that was consistently showing the most fight week in and week out. Our players never quit on the season. The offense which he is responsible for took a huge step forward compared to last year, despite the lack of skill talent  that we have. It was our defense that was a mess. That’s one of my critiques on Canales. He should’ve gotten rid of Evero and hired his own DC that shares the same vision. But as a whole, I can’t see how people are not pleased with what Canales did with this team. I’d give him an 9/10

      QB School: Bryce Young vs Falcons

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      One of the first thoughts after the game yesterday was that JT was going to jump all over it. He's been more favorable about BY from the beginning, and so yesterday must've felt like Christmas.

      Mock Draft from the 33rd Team

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Maybe, but they were always going to be an impossible team to accurately mocked right now. They have an absurd amount of cap room, what they need right now will not be what they need come draft day.  They can make multiple big splash signings and even make trades for players who need new contracts and their teams don't want to give it to them. OT and WR might be their two biggest needs right now, but it wouldn't be unreasonable to think they could go into the draft needing neither of them.  I think a LT will be their top FA priority, also think they're going to make a big offer to Higgins, and I could see them being a team in the running to trade for someone like DK Metcalf as they need a WR like him and they have the cap space to give him a big new contract.
