Panthers 3-4 Def

[Majic]

Their ability to stop the run, won them the game. If ever you wanted an example of 'big is better' you only had to look at what their Tackles such as Robinson did during the game. Stopped the run and made crucial plays.

This type of DEF is what we need in 2026.

Said this all offseason, bigger personnel consistently stop the run better. They had an opportunity to hire a 3-4 DC and reshape the defense, but decided to go back to their failed scheme that they have been using for years.

They have two stud DTs

Jerry has always and will always believe he can win by putting everything on the offensive side of the ball.

When you invest top 5 picks there it makes a difference. I can't remember the last time we spent high draft capitol on a DT. And no Mazi was a reach and doesn't count.

Brown and Robinson were both cheap pickups. We never make these moves

In order to run that 3-4 you have to have the hosses. Or it won't work. In fact it would be even worse than what we see now. We obviously need to fire Eberflus. He's not changing. We need the right players on the back end. We need to get much bigger on the d line. We were dominated today like I haven't seen since 1989-90. Rico wasn't touched many times til he was 5 yards or more from scrimmage. In a way, it's good we got embarrassed again on d. Maybe now changes we get made.

Agreed. I've written off 2025. I'm talking about 2026.

We have ZERO linebackers to run a 4-3, now you want more linebackers???

Gotcha

Yep for 2026

No they don’t!

Studs play their position( do their job) and don’t get pushed around for the WHOLE game.

**** Shemar James might be our best LB right now. We are trash on the back 7 and the front 4 need bigger ends and DTS mixed in. Quick.

5-7 yards off the ball all day. Gawd it was hard to watch that clown show d. Flus has to go.

We always make cheap moves! They just usually don’t pan out.

 

[NotaCowboysFan]

Difference was they tackled well, Javonte wasn't breaking tackles for big chunks like previous weeks. That was the difference, well that and the defense kneeling at the feet of Dowdle

The players are really bad too. They are soft AND they don’t play THEIR positions.

I think he meant Brown and Robinson for Carolina? 1st and 2nd round picks respectively. Even though in the 3-4, Brown is a DE.

What we been wishing for years.

They gave up 27 points.

Only 3 less than the "worst defense ever".
