4th and Short Podcast: Cowboys are here Brian Blue Kawann Short Jersey , Brad, and Jon preview the Panthers season opener against America’s team, the one and only Dallas Cowboys. To kick it off, we stand in solidarity with Panthers fans who are accepting insane amounts of money from Cowboys fans for selling their season tickets. As for the game, we talk about who they anticipate will start along the offensive line for the Panthers and how well that group will hold up against DeMarcus Lawrence and the rest of the Cowboys pass rush. We transition into general discussions about the Panthers offense versus the Cowboys defense before flipping the script and talking about the Cowboys offense versus the Panthers defense. We discuss the lack of Cowboys weaponry beyond Ezekiel Elliott and the Cowboys god-awful approach to repeatedly running the ball on first down. There are also a couple of peeks behind the curtain. The cold open is a quick summary of an article I researched but didn’t write Christian Miller Baltimore Ravens Jersey , and we give you a taste of what Brian is like as a member of a group chat.

Should the Panthers take a chance on him in the 2019 NFL Draft?"Chauncey Gardner-Johnson is a former four-star recruit from Cocoa High School. Gardner-Johnson was a productive player for the Gators’ defense. His talents were fully on display in 2018 under defensive coordinator Todd Grantham’s scheme. He finished with 71 tackles, four interceptions, two pass break-ups, nine tackles-for-loss, and three sacks during his final season in Gainesville. Film reviewGardner-Johnson’s played a nickel role for the Gators in 2018. This is a similar position that Carolina’s 3rd round pick Womens Christian Miller Jersey , Rashaan Gaulden, played for his alma mater in 2017. The difference is Gardner-Johnson shows a complete skill set to thrive as a modern safety. The first area that stands out is his tackling.He is composed, but aggressive when he pursues the ball carrier. Gardner-Johnson doesn’t waste any steps. He takes a second to identify the direction before coming down hill to fill. More importantly, Gardner-Johnson consistently took the right angles when the ball is near him. His technique is still inconsistent, but with better teaching by NFL coaches that can be improved. Due to his primary role lining up in the slot Color Rush Christian Miller Jersey , Gardner-Johnson would see plenty of match-ups in man coverage. He typically lines up off the line of scrimmage, but this plays into his strengths. He stays low while reading the receiver’s routes. His fluidity and explosiveness to push off on his back foot allows little separation. Gardner-Johnson stays physical with the receiver at the top of the routes, which shows he can be an asset if he does line up in press man. There will undoubtedly be questions about Gardner-Johnson’s transition into a deep safety role. He was rarely asked to execute that role for the Gators in 2018. However, that’s not to say he can’t do it. This interception during his final game against Michigan demonstrates his fluidity to quickly change directions. Then he shows the ball skills to pick off the pass. As my friend Betz says, Gardner-Johnson passes off the over route and then once he reads the quarterback he transitions into a deep safety. His ball skills are also going to attract many teams. While this interception should be credited to the defensive lineman for tipping the ball Blue Donte Jackson Jersey , Gardner-Johnson stays alert in his zone assignment to pick it off. He finished with two pick-sixes in 2018.To further exhibit his versatility, Florida wasn’t shy of having him blitz off the edge. Like his tackling, Gardner-Johnson aggressively pursues the ball carrier while also staying controlled. The question teams will have to reconcile is how to fully implement Gardner-Johnson’s skill set on their defense. He struggled as a deep safety in 2017, but it’s clear that Grantham and the Florida defensive staff found a defined role for him in 2018. As the Patriots showed in the Super Bowl, NFL defenses are becoming more about match-ups and versatile defensive backs taking on multiple roles. Fit with CarolinaDespite playing a similar role to Rashaan Gaulden during his final college season Donte Jackson Jersey 2019 , Gardner-Johnson is the superior prospect in every facet. Gaulden was a poor athlete. He also didn’t show enough in man coverage or as a deep safety to warrant his selection in the third round. The Panthers continuing to play a 37-year-old safety and Colin Jones over him confirms that. Gardner-Johnson would be the modern defensive back the Panthers defense has been craving for years. He has the fluidity, athleticism, ball skills, and physicality to become a difference maker for a defense looking for contributors. « The pursuit of running back Le'VeoMatt Ryan re-energized a franchise and a fanbase » Weitere Artikel der Kategorie Allgemein |
