3-32 without 16-31 with. Ewwwww.

Apparently we should be able to tell a difference with Ball physically compared to previous seasons, if that's true and it allows him to stay healthy, keep up the effort defensively and finish at the hoop ... Could be the breakout season we've all been looking for.

If you give BB 3 years, he may put UNC in a 5 year hole, TBH. Also, I don't think he sticks around for 3 years. Furthermore, he had this entire charade set up as an excuse to install his son as HC. How do you imagine that will go? If UNC is smart, they will pivot as soon as that buyout is low and before there is permanent damage.

Penix was straight trash Sunday.

Yeah we fuged up the Baker situation royally. Looking at him today, it was just a total fúck up. It wasn't Browns level, but it was a fúck up on several different levels. If Mike Jackson has another solid season (which he has begun), then I think he gets the nod over Harris.

The one thing we can all probably agree on is that our run defense has been much better so far this year than last year. Outside of the one long run and the Jacksonville game, the Kyler run in the Arizona game, and 1 run in the Atlanta game, the run D has been pretty damn good

All this is great, but still...Penix was awful---missing wide open receivers left and right. We still may have won the game if he had just been decent, but it's just hard to get too excited. Let's see some continued growth from the rookies, and another good outing and more consistency from the defense in general. If this happens, then excitement may begin to overtake skepticism. We have to beat the Pats, or the raised eyes from the Atlanta beat down will become furrowed with the quickness, and any inkling of goodwill be lost.

I mean... If being good at toss blocks is your only good quality as a WR, you probably aren't good... Much easier to use him solely in that role when the falcons can't score a single point

Falcons offense was the easiest to gameplay for. 90% of the time they are in shotgun its a pass. Their plays were dictated by same formations. This made it easier to gameplan for out of all of our opponents. NE will let us know if we made any progress with our coordinators preparation.

One of the key stats that wasn't mentioned here was the Falcons average starting field position was their 19 yard line. I really haven't watched much this season, so I don't know if our kicker did this in the first two games, but this dorky dude seems to make the point that the panther's ability to squib kick was instrumental and perhaps unique. https://x.com/SyedSchemes/status/1955260481330950406 Sorry if not formatted correctly.

I mean the panthers have mostly been in an era where player trades don’t happen. its not like the nba.

Them playing behind a couple more seasoned guys until they get familiar with coverage and pace of play is a good thing though. We really can use them to spell the other guys, and in situational ball especially with Ransom on possible run/blitzing downs.

They fuged him over so bad to help cover their bad judgement. About time he got a little something to wrk with.

I think completion percentage is a bit of a overinflated stat for a qb too. People place to much stock into it. So many factors to consider with it : receivers, how many attempts are made deep, the defense etc all play a roll in it. When it’s considerably low 50% or less the QB accuracy can come into question. But I don’t think it’s necessarily one of the better percentages to put so much importance into for that position. General effectiveness is far more indicative of the QB you have. First downs, 3rd and 4th down conversions, points scored and clutch plays IMO is how you grade a QB. Always bothered the poo out of me how people downed Cam for his completion percentage and that’s what they used to disregard him as an all time great. Dude damn near averaged 3tds to 1 turnover a game and was an obvious difference maker for us.

I’m on board with this. We need to start by beating division.

Trevin Wallace’s is just alright, he made more plays this week. But Rozeboom is a really bad tackler. Like how is that your job in the pros and you’re that bad. If we get one good ILB then we are set

I said it in the around the NFL thread, but I will repeat it here. For Baltimore, MLB Trenton Simpson has seen his snap counts dwindle to a handful of plays the last two weeks. He seems to have fallen out of favor being replaced by the new rookie. No idea what it would cost, but I hope Dan is at least reaching out to gauge interest in moving him. Don't want to spend the boat on him, but if he can be had for cheap he would be a great injection of potential at the LB level.

This place has very unrealistic expectations for a WR 5

Good trade, but the fact that we're considering this possibly the 2nd best trade in 3 decades is pretty damning of how awful our GMs have been.

That was bad. He completely over pursed when the edge was already set and left a gaping cut back lane. If we get a late top 10 pick, I wouldn’t mind if we traded down some and draft the best MLB in the draft. Most likely Anthony Hill Jr from Texas.

Wait...so you finally give evero a lil bit of talent to work with and you see some improvement?? You dont say...

Did they get rid of their kicker as well?

That was the game plan. It worked. I never planned to be the resident David Moore advocate but the guy went 32 for 351 and 3 TDs last year as the 5th option. 19 of the 32 went for 1st downs. He's not restricted to blocking. He's not elite. He's a solid contributor as demonstrated above.

rozebum would have just whiff on the tackle anyways

For The Bears. Mile Jackson was a great trade.
