Panthers vs Patriots Running Commentary

The side line interviews need to be banned. They are dangerous.

 

Jack Plummer doesn't need to be on on any NFL roster.

 

I thought the same thing.

 

For an undrafted rookie QB, I thought he looked okay. The supposedly "new and improved" Mingo and Marshall fucked him a couple of times with drops. The arm is good. He'll need to stop holding onto the ball if he wants any sort of NFL career, though.

 

Some things I liked:

- Christensen being the 7th OL on this team is kind of exciting. He looks like he can play any position reasonably well.

- Lamar Jackson. The team really needs one of the nobody backup CB's to break out.

- The inside linebackers can run, which is something you have to have in this scheme. Hopefully you don't need any of these guys to start, but that speed should be an asset on special teams.

- The Jordan Matthews Experiment has intrigued me. He's not going to be a good blocker at TE, but if he can just wall guys off and not be a glaring liability, you have a former WR being covered by linebackers.




Things I hated:

- The new kickoff. God, I hate it.

- For a guy who's calling card is supposedly "setting the edge", DJ Johnson gives it up a whole lot. He did it on the first defensive snap of the game. What exactly do you do here??

- A lot of empty set. Why? Didn't we try that last year? This is an under-center offensive line.

- Jamison is a horrible CB.

- Mingo and Marshall dropping passes.

 

His highest ceiling is Will Grier, but he has a long way to go to even be close. I doubt he ever gets enough real game experience to learn.

 

so Josh Allen from Bills will play Saturday, but Bryce does not.

I can't for the life of me figure out why a new coach, with a new system, sits all his starters.

Maybe they would embarrass themselves?

This will make everyone feel better.

 

Clear as mud.
