The Carolina Panthers’ win against the Philadelphia Eagles placed Cam Newton ahead of Aaron Rodgers for most 4th quarter come back victories in the NFL. Naturally https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/J.J.-Jansen-Jersey , the team has been questioned repeatedly this week about how they can replicate their success and what their plans are for the up tempo style that is credited with driving the win. After all, Sunday was just the latest in a long career of games in which Newton has shown great proficiency with that kind of offense.Coaches never say as much as you would like to hear. It is part of their job to dissemble and conceal from the press, and thus, ultimately, their opponents, what their plans are from week to week. I’m hoping that is behind the series of disappointing quotes that Ron Rivera and Norv Turner have given this week.Turner expressed support for the concepts while refusing to commit to them except on a situational basis and Rivera sounded like he saw going no huddle on offense as a last resort, at best. Specifically, Rivera is concerned that the Panthers will go three and out in a hurry https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/Mike-Adams-Jersey , leaving their opponent with all of the time in the world to score. But really, what’s there to lose for the Panthers?Against the Eagles, the Panthers first three drives of the game averaged 4 plays, 2:06 of clock burned, and just under 10 yards before each of them ended with a punt. In fact, with the exception of the Falcons game, each of the Panthers opening drives in 2018 has ended with a punt or a turnover. The saying “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” certainly does not apply here. The Panthers offense in the first quarter is broke.One must have the proper tools if they intend to fix something. This is why there has been so much attention paid to the Panthers’ success in an up tempo offense. The difference between their three punts to open the game and three touchdowns to end it can’t be overlooked.Rivera himself referred to going up tempo as a “great tool.” Don’t, however https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/Matt-Kalil-Jersey , expect the Panthers to plan to make use of that tool against the Ravens or, probably, any other team in 2018. Rivera’s full quote on going no huddle was “obviously, we were forced to, but it’s a great tool we have.”I don’t know how this is even logic. You shouldn’t be “forced” to use a “great tool” in the face of an obvious problem. I can’t believe this is intentionally misleading and vague “coach speak,” either. Emphasizing what you want to do over what you are good at doing has been Rivera’s philosophy since his first offensive coordinator, Rob Chudzinski, left to coach the Cleveland Browns. Every game the Panthers play is a tree they need to chop down. Since Chud left https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/Captain-Munnerlyn-Jersey , Rivera has approached the tree with a nail file he’s had since the 80s instead of the ostentatiously dressed axe that he drafted with the top pick in the 2011 draft. The Bills announced a number of moves on the players’ off day, including the signing of cornerback Captain Munnerlyn. Munnerlyn, 31, played for the Panthers the past two seasons, his second stint with in Carolina. He previously played for the Panthers during his first five seasons in the NFL, with three coming under Sean McDermott when he was Carolina’s defensive coordinator.The Panthers made Munnerlyn a seventh-round pick in 2009.He appeared in all 16 games for the Panthers last season, making five starts, and had nine pass breakups https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/David-Mayo-Jersey , two sacks and an interception.The Bills also signed defensive tackles Demetrius Rhaney and Roderick Young. They placed cornerback EJ Gaines (core muscle) and defensive tackle Robert Thomas (knee) on injured reserve. Buffalo cut offensive lineman Nico Siragusa.Rhaney most recently played with the Hamilton TigerCats in the CFL. The TigerCats cut him Aug. 5.A seventh-round choice of the Rams in 2014, Rhaney has appeared in 33 NFL games.The Jaguars signed Young as an undrafted free agent out of North Texas in April. They waived him in May with an injury designation, and he reverted to injured reserve before reaching an injury settlement.
