Panthers vs Jaguars Week One Running Commentary

Playbook.

 

I was out of town yesterday so I recorded the game. I just watched it and already knowing the outcome, I concentrated on watching our OL, with emphasis on our LT.

Oher, while showing nice one-on-one protection most of the time, still gave up two sacks and would have given up a couple of more had Cam not been able to bull through a couple of tackles. Oher really bites on defender's spin moves. Additionally, our running game seemed to have better production on the right side, but I'm curious to see stats on that.

I still think Oher is an upgrade over Bell, but he's still going to have to step up his play or we're in trouble.

Remmers was the lineman that gave up the FG block on ST near the end of the game. Pitiful effort on his blocking assignment.

Lastly, apparently you must have a beer and a gunt to enter the pool in Jacksonville's stadium.

 

I don't. We might as well have kept Bell since he has more position flexibility.

 

As long as Cam holds onto the ball that long it doesn`t matter who is playing LT.

 

Cam's arrow is pointing sideways.

 

....in addition to the slowest delivery of mostly anybody.

 

Kony Ealy takes it in the crapper for a free bus pass and ramen noodles. Horton should be the other starting DE. He's not very good either, but he makes a lot less mistakes.

 

Rivera mentioned he liked how Ealy played. Not sure what to make of that.




Other thing of note is how little Shaq Thompson played. This was a lot of folks concern coming into the season. When we go nickel, which we play a lot, he's not on the field. Not going to get a lot of run this year and Rivera said as much

 

When Luke left the game we basically stayed in nickel the rest of the way.

 

Rivera said Benjamin just had a sprain. Rivera is basically a Carolina Huddle member coaching the team. Ealy was dogshit.
