Panthers Postgame sadness

Heinicke performed admirably in a pinch, albeit against a softer D, but he also could have had a couple INTs if the Panther's defense could catch the ball. He did look better than Haskins in limited duty though, which is sad.

Here is a good article on Heinicke. He played here for ODU and put up some big numbers. I think he started for them beginning in 2011 when ODU's was still pretty new into having a football team.

The biggest elephant in the press room that I have not seen the press get after Ron about is the slow starts by this team. It is a running joke between my son and me that we have to get down 17 to scare the team awake (referencing scary Terry's jersey). It is pathetic to know that regardless of the quality of the opponent, we are going to spot them a double digit lead.

Has anyone heard the team's response to this? It is not all on the offense either.

And people talk about privilege...JFC pathetic

Never had a real job and had a car note in college? How’s that work?

You know how it works (https://www.si.com/college/2020/10/21/college-basketball-scandal-sec-recruiting-daily-cover). The system is broken (https://www.si.com/college/2014/12/29/college-athletes-fixer-cheating-scheme).

Cred making a great point...slow starts have been a big issue. Skins have been behind almost every game going into halftime.

Also Logan Thomas breaking out:

Logan Thomas has the third most targets among tight ends in 2020.
Thomas, who has run more pass routes than any tight end in the league, has 101 targets, 29 behind Darren Waller and 38 behind Travis Kelce.

Told y’all to draft him on fantasy team

Not having scored at all on their first possession of the game through 15 games is on the offense. Some of it's execution I'm sure, but in my opinion, a streak that long has to be a direct reflection of Scott Turner's ability (or inability) to put a game plan together.

True. But the no job thing is on his parents...how do you teach work ethic if you never had a job

1000000% on dad and mom.

So it makes me look at how the top 3 HC, DC, OC run game prep. Usually both sides of the ball get it together around half time but something in warmups or game prep must be off to be so perfectly imperfect.

Agreed to an extent, I blame the players for not executing and Scott Turner for being unable to put together a first 15 plays sheet that can get them started fast.

Totally agree, and the impression I've gotten (from Haskins & Haskins) and the 2 months they spent planning his draft party, putting together his "entertainment" company/etc. indicates they looked at Dwayne as a meal ticket. I think his entire family and friends failed him.

Finally saw this clip of the Fox pre-game crew ripping Dwayne. It's a shame, he'll get another opportunity elsewhere for vet min probably but if his work ethic/ego gets in his own way there won't be many more opportunities.
