Byron Murphy

He’s looked good so far. Had a very nice preseason and looked very good against both the Lions and Ravens over the first two weeks.

Sunday afternoon was a completely different story. When looking back two of the Panthers touchdowns, both times Murphy shows up late.

He was very late to the short touchdown pass to the Panthers Olsen. He was the only one within 5-yards of Olsen but he was in the middle of the field when the pass was thrown. Olsen scored on the right end of the end zone.

The second one was from the Panthers first touchdown, which didn’t seem to be as egregious looking, but still appeared Murphy was late. Would love to know what happened there as well?

However Panthers receiver Curtis Samuel was all by himself in the back corner of the end zone. That just can’t happen. He’s a rookie though and will hopefully learn from it .
