How can the Panthers copy the blueprint for success the 49ers have laid out?
For much of the 2024 NFL season, the San Francisco 49ers were the league's top dog. Their grip on the top step of the league's hierarchy came into question in the regular season when they were dismantled by the Ravens on Christmas night, and again on Super Bowl Sunday when. However, for five months, the Niners were Super Bowl favorites and a team that the rest of the league was looking up to.
The 49ers have made the game easy for Purdy. The quickest way to ensure success for an NFL team is to build a star-studded roster around a quarterback on a rookie contract and San Francisco has done just that. Purdy is protected by an elite offensive line, and has a stable of weapons to throw and hand the ball to that nobody in the league can compete with. The game is on rookie mode for 2022's Mr. Irrelevant.
Carolina would be prudent to run an offense the same way. Give Young easy throws to build a rhythm and then let him create when need be. Eventually Young may get to the point where he can singlehandedly carry an offense with his arm like a Mahomes or a Burrow, but for now, making him a cog in the machine instead of the engine of the offense is more suitable to his skillset.
Carolina is building their receiver room the same way. Carolina's Brandon Aiyuk is Diontae Johnson. Carolina's Deebo Samuel is Xavier Legette. Carolina's JaJuan Jennings is Adam Thielen for now, with Jonathan Mingo slotted to slide into that role down the line. The Panthers receivers may be the diet version of the 49ers, but the vision is clear.San Francisco's defense is built with elite playmakers at every level. Nick Bosa is a premier pass rusher.
