Am I the only person worried about Amini Silatolu?

If we are truly going to run more, Silatolu will shine.  He is a beast in run blocking schemes.  He is improving.  Gross is on the decline and Kalil is solid but coming off a season-ending injury.  Williams and Bell will be targeted by defenses all season long.  I see Silatolu and Kalil as our best Offensive linemen in 2013.

After 2 preseason games I am even more worried about Silatolu.  I do not see the huge improvement.  Everyone talks about Garry Williams and rightly so, but keep ignoring the bad play from Silatolu.   He does have some really good moments but his bad moments are really, really bad.

 I agree I don't know what games or game film theses guys have been watching but silatolu has definitely been the worst starter on the offensive line these first two weeks.

 

He has all the physical tools but I don't think he has it just yet....

Well, probably one of the worst games I've watched.

 

My only comments on him are these:

1.  screen pass, he didn't move fast enough for Williams to follow him

2.  on a couple of runs, he was standing and Williams was on his back, not a good sign.

 

The Panthers as a whole last night were atrocious, all of them.

 

I put short shrift on preseason games but quite frankly, that performance by the whole team  was very concerning.  Very concerning.

Not saying that.

 

You've seen my posts before.

 

I'm not an alarmist.

 

After 15 years, I've seen this show many times.

 

I don't expect them to be world beaters in preseason.  I want them to get out and not injured but I also expect them to look like they have some clue as to how to run the simplest play call.  I didn't see that last night.

 

In the 3 weeks before Seattle, their happy asses better find some urgency somewhere from some body.

My worry isn't Amini. It isn't Garry. It's the line calls!

Seriously, what the hell is going on with our protection calls, stunts and blitzes are kicking our ass. I hope Kalil just needs to get back in the groove of things.

Orrrr maybe we can't block the blitzes? The RB's were abysmal in pass pro.
