PFF- Panthers have #8 ranked oline after Q1 of season

[MadHatter]

Keep in mind our OL has to block for a much longer period of time due to Shula's slowest developing pass play calls in the league.

And for a QB that takes way to long to go through his progressions. The two together (long developing plays and a QB who takes too long) is a big issue.

It also helps that Cam evades at least 4 sacks per game. Insert a slow pocket passing QB into our offensive scheme and our line would drop into the bottom 8.

 

Also the fact that Chris Scott graded so terribly makes me wonder how Bell isn't worse. His nick name should be Lazy Susan.

This breaks it down between run blocking and pass protection.

 

run blocking 9th

pass blocking 31st

 

That makes more sense.

And that he causes a few sacks by holding into the ball way too long sometimes

Also true.

This also is a reason why Cam holds the ball so long. "Staring" down receivers

That makes more sense.

I could believe that

[Argus Plexus]

Maybe 8th worst...

those numbers make more sense, tho 31st?  I think the Giants are worse than us.

So you're telling me the guy Chris Scott that sucked everywhere else he's been but we signed him anyway, still sucks?

 

Shocking.

[Yaboychris28]

Chris Scott isn't even that bad imo

One thing it does is adjusts the sack numbers for the total number of passing plays as well as plays where sacks are more or less likely. But yeah they suck too.

yeah I know just my feeling from watching them play they are even worse in pass blocking, which isn't to say anything good about our O-Line...

Given that Gross' score was so high compared to the composite, the result is pretty skewed. Get rid of Jordan's 8.7 and the overall number is pretty pedestrian.
