Official Game Day Thread- Week 4 Panthers @ Pats

[rads2005]

defense bailed out by an excellent punch by Flowers.

 

[Snooky97]

Need to sort the Secondary out. We can't just blame Gilmore.. Theres some communication issues. If they weren't good BB wouldn't of brought them in. Lets hope for improvements as the game goes

 

[TbSB5]

Might be the worst I've ever seen.

That's saying something considering 2011

Also how can anyone on here still defend this defense? What is wrong with some of you? The offense has been awesome. The defense has not,

 

[TB12TheGoat]

Game changing play by Flowers....game changing

whats new?

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

And we have to play TB Thursday...fix all these issues on a short week

 

[Kdo5]

Phew we needed that. But wow the defense is shockingly bad. It's only Week 4 so this is clearly a knee jerk reaction. But it is really as bad as it gets.

 

[primetime]

Well, that was the only way they're going to win this game or any game against a moderately competent opponent. Take advantage of those mistakes and avoid making them.

 

[Ross12]

Flowers is clutch af, man, we needed that.

I gotta say, I'm so mad about the defense I just have to go angry dance.

Film that for us if you would bud

 

[Arialgg]

I'm thankful for Carolina turnovers. My favorite dessert right now.

Looked like Trey Flowers jarred that ball free. Huge play. Defense was on the ropes. Leaks were springing up across the board.

Like 2011 D... A awful but good at getting turnovers

Except the SB when they couldn't pick one ball off the ground.

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

Jesus, when you think it can’t look any worse they turn it around in an instant.

They still suck! Better to be lucky than good at times.

 

[patfanken]

well the good news on that first drive, at least no one was wildly open because of mental f*ck up. We got that going for us....at least

 

[Crononaut]

Two big time, much-needed opportunistic turnovers that help mask the total mental meltdown our secondary is having. There is something fundamentally flawed with that unit as a whole and it isn't a skill thing. I'm baffled they still haven't been able to get it together.

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

Great halftime adjustments on the defense.

They have been just awful all year, only TO are saving them from getting blown out by one of the worst offensives in the NFL.

 

[mosslost]

He coaches the safeties which have been brutal this year.

Well lucky for him Gilmore not a safety

 

[TinhWoodhead]

Trey saves the day!

 

[luuked]

Very fortunate they fumbled here because it looked like they were on their way to another score. Nice heads up plays by Flowers and Roberts.

For as bad as they have been in coverage today I have seen multiple instances where our defenders were close to strip the ball or at least gave it a got shot. Just a 1-2 plays before Gilmore had his hands on the runners ball from behind.

 

[BobDigital]

You know the Panthers have not gone backwards on offense really all day. Yes 2 turnovers but no 10 yard sack or 10 yard offensive penalty.

 

[Run DMC]

Nice fumble but doesn't change the fact this defense is a hot mess.
