Have you seen our defense?

They were doing alright until that last drive.

Joe Barry literally has no idea what he's doing. You could pick a 14 year old kid out of the stands who plays Madden on his playstation and he'd have a better grasp of how to call a defense than this. It's so ridiculously, maddeningly frustrating that LaFleur won't do something about this embarrassingly hilarious farce. This refusal to recognize such an incompetence should be (but won't) the impetus to fire LaFleur this off-season.

I think the lack of a contract probably dooms Barry whatever happens. But if you can’t beat Carolina time to tank.

Not dumping him last year is a fireable offense.

[HarryDoyle]

Now that's a weak roughing call but I'll take it.

[DuWayne Steurer]

one step and a mild chuck to the torso. That's not a roughing the passer. 

[worm81]

Damn Anders kicked that one hard.

[HarryDoyle]

This was brought up last week by the announcers, but is there something about protecting the middle of the field first that Barry doesn't understand?

[yourout]

I swear we have the worst scouting game planning defense in the league.

Never able to anticipate and force QBs off their first read.

[HarryDoyle]

Thank you Panthers OC for getting away from what was working for you.

[Strike4]

Ok that was a nice play on 4th down.

Carolina has to be really bad

It's definitely a weak spot in his defense. Makes one wonder how he can watch tape week after week and not be like "I should shore that area of my defense up somehow....."

[Vgmastr]

The offense has a chance here to pull away.  Eat up enough clock and score at the end of this drive then get the ball to start the second half.  They could make it a three score game without giving the defense a chance to screw it up.

[HarryDoyle]

Have a game, Melton.

 

[OldHeidelberg]

Melton already better than doubs

Barry at halftime:

(Tugs on Matt Lafleur's shirt): "Not super awful, right Matt? Matt?"

[Strike4]

Toure has faded and will likely not be with the team next year.

I had hopes he could be a version of Donald Driver

[worm81]

One thing I've noticed this year is that Rodgers was the reason the offense would waste so many timeouts over the years. Love seems to do a good job of getting to the line of scrimmage with plenty of time to make the the presnap adjustments. 

[OldHeidelberg]

Nice half, let’s not forget about #33

Yea he is sliding farther down the pecking order each week.

Especially with Watson and Reed out. If he can't get on the field this week, it's not a good sign for him.

[yourout]

Love has missed a lot of throws high today.

[OldHeidelberg]

lol at the Barry shot after 4th and one

Yeah, he should probably think about filling the A gaps in that situation.

[yourout]

Wow that was easy.

[OldHeidelberg]

Panthers just passed their season average in points per game. Didn’t hey say erlier they had their first td in 50 years? 😡
