Have they said when the Blueprint Draft episode is going to be released? Kinda weird to put out the teaser but not a date for it, already itching to watch all the T-Mac stuff

I am still not really a fan of bashing your team when they have OVERACHIEVED this season. Before the season started I think most of us would agree that we would be surprised and pretty happy with an ECF appearance (and even though the Big Lady is warming up, it's not done till she hits that first note). This team took us further than I would have ever thought, I even had expectations of us possibly missing the playoffs so hats off to our guys. Florida is a solid team and got much better at the trade deadline, we didn't although I'd say losing pouty ass Ratanen was a win.

Nah. He's a guy you bring in when you are one player away from a deep playoff run. Or you have a team that can make a deep playoff run, but have gotten sideways at just one position.

Yea we need a legit power play coach at a minimum. It's fine if Rod's not an X's an O's guy, but we need a good one if that's the case.

Just force him to make bench changes and fire some of his staff. He will refuse and resign from being the head coach.

I feel like the owner will give Rod one more season. I don’t agree with it, but I have a feeling that is how it will play out. That said sometimes firing a coach that has failed in the playoffs time and time again can occasionally give the team a boost when the new coach comes it and takes them to the promised land. Even if Rod somehow says he needs to try something different we know from past experience that is just coach talk. Like Rivera during his final season. Said during the off-season he can’t keep coaching the same way if he wants to keep his job, but once the season started he fell back into his old ways. Same thing would happen to Rod.

I have the same feeling now as I did right before the 2nd year of the John Fox era.

The love/hate relationship with PFF here over the years amuses me greatly. But I do appreciate this content. Training camp should be fun.

We will go as far as our defense carries us. While I expect the offense to be the better unit, IF our defense can get stops, turnovers, giving our offense short fields, this team will absolutely be dangerous.

Worst thing is, we were all set to draft Mitchell, but decided to grab Malik Monk when he dropped.

My whole point in wanting T-Mac was because it unlocks the rest of the offense. Yeah, we were getting by when teams stacked the box with AT but that was it as our only reliable receiver.. and so teams just all out blitz and it not only hurt our pass game but it hurt our run game too as those blitz make it harder to run unless you perfectly block everyone on the first level.

Is it just me or are we staring at a really really talented player at #4? Ace Bailey and VJ Edgecombe are not exactly consolation prizes and either would fit perfectly with this young nucleus.

Amen

Hakstol, Sullivan or Woodcroft would be good choices.

I'm glad we can find common ground on these issues. I think most of the folks in the fanbase are burned out from not only the losing but the same discussions. This is a put up or shut up year in many ways for sure. Hopefully things go relatively according to plan and come December we are talking about further building around our core and competing for the playoffs in the not so distant future instead of bickering about why this or that was a failure yet again. Here's to hoping

It's both somehow. He was trying to say the rest of the team sucks. But, when you say certain guys can't be your best players, you are by default saying those players aren't good enough either.

if Rod is fired, who could the Canes turn to? any good coaches still free?

It's the whole state. I blame Zebulon Vance or maybe the Roanoke colonists. This poo goes back!

I mean a few factors but the design of the offense has more to do with it than anything else IMO. Rod doesnt have any kind of creation going shot wise its all forecheck cycle shoot low danger look for tips and put ins.

I liked his run support and tackling. He gives up some yards but that’s gonna happen when you don’t let Horn shadow the #1 receiver.

I think the recent breakdown video of Bryce(posted in here) shows really the biggest issue from a play callers standpoint that hurts Bryce. He is very often off schedule because he has poor footwork and it can lead to him looking around what appears to be aimlessly because he is waiting for the play to unfold. It also impacts his decision making because he is making decisions before the play is really able to unfold.
