    Safeties need to make plays in space. Not his forte...

    33 absorbed tackles... Making a tackle on a RB 8 yards downfield is a fail... making a tackle 15 yards downfield on a receiver is a fail.

    I would love to know how many of 33s tackles were within 3 yards of the LoS...


    but I agree 33 made a ton of 'tackles'

    The Panthers defense is shockingly bad. What happened, besides letting Norman go? The DL gets no pressure AT ALL.. injuries? What the heck is happening besides Norman?

    He's a free safety. it's not his job. if people are getting that far downfield then the lbs and dl arent doing their jobs

    it was 33s JOB to READ RUN and make the play near the LoS


    absorbing the RB 10 yards downfield is loser talk. Yes it means the DL/LBs failed but it also means the S failed to do his damn job you nut swinger

    Really.. how did the NFC defending champions end up with Michael Griffin starting in their secondary?

    Is it coincidence their defense has been awful up to this point?

    They obviously made a horrible decision letting Norman go...

    But I am really enjoying that team falling apart after the way they acted last year.

    We are going to get an entire season's worth of baby face Cam.

    This is why defensive schemes work. Why you can't just plug anyone in for it to work.

    Lebeau has a scheme that's surprisingly effective here... why don't we go after better DBs out there? Better skills doesn't always translate to a more effective scheme. They have to buy in... the DC needs those players. Norman was probably more of a linchpin to that scheme than they thought.
