The Panthers’ defense plans to get back on track against Minnesota’s potent offense

How the Panthers’ defense intends to refocus in order to counter Minnesota’s effective offense.

Finding the precise problem isn’t overly simplistic if there is a common factor contributing to the Carolina Panthers’ defensive difficulties thus far in the season.

Linebacker Brian Burns said on Thursday that each game presents a unique challenge.
It is difficult to say, therefore. I can say, generally speaking, that the main thing is to maintain discipline.
Every game includes that. That is something you can always rely on.

But as the week progresses, tasks and plans change.
Therefore, it is a little more complicated in that regard.
“.

The Panthers (0-3) will face a difficult situation on Sunday at Bank of America Stadium.
The Minnesota Vikings have had their share of difficulties through the first three weeks of the season, but they also possess a quick-strike offense that can rack up points in a flash.

Kirk Cousins and Justin Jefferson have helped the Minnesota Vikings (0-3) throw for 1,075 yards already, which is second only to the Miami Dolphins’ aerial attack and the most in the league.
The Vikings’ nine passing touchdowns also lead the league.
Additionally, Cousins’ 358 point, 3 yard average is.

Jefferson has amassed a league-high 458 yards while savoring the secondaries of his opponents.
In addition, he has caught 12 passes of 20 yards or more, easily putting him in front of the opposition.
In contrast, Keenan Allen of the Los Angeles Chargers is second in that category behind Jefferson with seven such catches.

Ejiro Evero, head of the Panthers’ defense, said of the player, “He’s arguably the best in the league” in terms of speed, direction change, route running, and after the catch.
He is capable of performing each task well. Kirk can also deliver the ball to him.
Thus, our defense will face a lot of difficulty in this situation.
“.

This is due to Cousins’ wide range of other options and ability to distribute the ball to numerous targets.
the tight end T.
J. Jordan Addison and K.
Hockenson, both wide receivers, also K. J.
Running back Alexander Mattison has been targeted 17 times and has caught 11 passes, scoring two touchdowns each for Osborne and Osborne.

Evero said, “You need to stop more than just one guy.
“You still need to stop 87 (Hockenson) and Addison.
All over the place, they have weapons.
Despite their lack of commitment thus far, they have the ability to run the ball and the game. But we are aware that it will happen. But on Sunday, we need to be prepared, ready, and at the top of our game.
“.

especially in light of Carolina’s mounting injury woes.

Shaq Thompson’s loss puts a strain on the depth of the Carolina Panthers.

Shaq Thompson, a linebacker, will be out for the entire season due to a fractured fibula, and Jaycee Horn, a cornerback, will be sidelined for several weeks.
When linebacker Frankie Luvu (hip pointer), cornerback CJ Henderson (ankle), and safety Xavier Woods (hamstring) all sustained injuries in Seattle, the Panthers’ already weakened condition worsened.

It’s possible that Luvu and Henderson will play against Minnesota if they participate in practice on Thursday.
However, Woods missed on-field practice for the second day in a row.
Given the Vikings’ effective offense, Woods’ absence might be significant.

Evero remarked, “You can’t replace that experience when you lose a player of that caliber or when you lose Shaq or whoever it is.
You can, however, give the players a chance to succeed by allowing them to enter the game. You position them in settings in which they feel at ease.
All the guys in that room, including Sam Franklin and Jammie Robinson, have done a great job of staying organized and working every day, that’s the one thing I’ll mention.

I like how those players were practicing as though they would be starting a game even before Xavier’s injury.
They will now have the chance to showcase their abilities.
“.

The key for any Panthers defensive reserve is to resist the temptation to overcommit and press for a play.
The last thing Carolina needs is that.

Safety Vonn Bell said, “You just have to stick to the process, and we’ve got to believe in our ability and the guys across from us, the guy on offense, the guy on special teams.
Do those ones through eleven, and just come in here every day and be deliberate in our work.
And simply continue to act as your coach instructed.
He keeps mentioning it.

“Do more film study, whether it’s with the guys or practice reps after practice catching the ball, working on fundamentals, focusing on mastering our technique, focusing on mastering our craft, and focusing on mastering our opponent.
It’s going to recover.
“.

The leader in sacks for Carolina thinks they’re getting close to the solution.

Burns said, “In general, I feel like it’s been a good defense.
“I just think that once we get the stops required to win the game, we can develop into a great defense.
The game was close and I believe we were trailing by two or something similar when it happened, according to my memory of Seattle.
