Let's call it what it is

Here are our issues in a nut shell in order of importance. I want to hear your arguments:

1) Injuries-cannot expect 3rd and 4th stringers from bad teams to win games for us. 4 starters-Kemo, Harris, Leonard, Diggs out all give us less experience and depth. It hurts.

2) QB-I've always been Jake's #1 supporter (mostly because I like his fire and I'm a team player) but his spirit is hurt and it's time for us to move on. I don't know what the answer is but something has got to change.

3) Tackling-Atrocious! We cannot tackle from day one. Basic tackling learned in Pop Warner. Wrap up people.

4) Offensive line-Where did they go? No protection for Jake, no holes open for Williams/Stewart. What happened to that experience and big contract for Gross? Wow-these guys are really just average at best. If our rb's get anything, it's because they earned it not due to the o line.

5) Special teams-We have to be 32 in special teams. What happened to Rhyss kicking the pigskin out of the endzone every time? Get rid of his fancy english ass if he can't do that anymore. He's taking up a roster spot. We let every team start out with good field position every series. You can't win like that with a lack luster D-sorry.

Well that's it in a nutshell. If JRich and Hurney want to hire me as a consultant, my number is 704-pan-thers.

Re: Let's call it what it is

I concur with almost everything you said realpanther but...

Gross actually played a great game last night.  The sacks late in the game were all on Otah, and Gross did a great job keeping Ware in check all night, go back and watch the film.

good analysis though...

Also, what happened to the blitz? We were killing the Cowgirls in the 1st half with great pressure from blitzes. Why didn't we keep it up in the 2nd half. We rarely blitzed in the 2nd half, until it was too late. & Why did they give Jake so many opportunities to throw the damn ball in the 2nd half, when the game was still close? Let Double Trouble go to work. The ground game was effective in the 1st half, and was starting to wear their D down.

Yeah take out OL, add overall D where you have QB, and put QB near the bottom and, move STs up and you have a perfect list IMO.  Oh yeah and fire all the staff and FO.  lol.

I love days after a loss on this site.  You growlers never fail to crack me up.

Re: Let's call it what it is

#1) I can't argue with you. Let's not forget the fact that few key defense players were lost to Free Agency because Hurney had to have big paycheck ready for Peppers. It is biting us right now because we don't have room to sign veterans like Derrick Brooks who is a free agent.

#2) Ditto! I do like JD as a person but he got to fix himself FAST or he gotta go!  Again, no money to acquire free agent QB who can start immediately.

#3). Amen! Gotta have 2-days tackling drill this week to refresh..

#4). Its easy to stack up and pressure front 5 when you have erratic QB so it doesn't help if you can't have air attack and your opponent is stacking up more men than what you can block.

#5). See #1.  No money to acquire anyone.  Mark Jones was our returner but let go due to financial so I wouldn't expect us getting better punter with small paycheck.  We are pretty much stuck!

Yeah never see so much activity until after a loss.  And since people want to ask questions about what certain things say about our FO and coaches and so on, what does that say about our fanbase????  HA!
