Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales made his desire to get his younger players more involved abundantly clear to his staff. Whether this comes to fruition or not is anyone's guess, especially on the defensive side of the football.
Ejiro Evero typically likes to rely on experienced players. If he's worked with them previously, that's even better. Unfortunately for the defensive coordinator, it hasn't brought anything like the required standards since his arrival.
The Panthers' run defense was an abomination once again in Week 1 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. They gave up 200 rushing yards, and their pass-rush was almost non-existent.
