Rae wasn't a good enough player to get away with it.

Frankly I'm surprised he's still a color guy on the preseason broadcasts. It was like nothing happened. Kinda like December 2002.

He blocked a field goal against the Bucs.

I don’t hate it. Yet?

It’s past time to accept that Juan is Adam Schefter.

Kenny Pickett didn’t play for UNC.

You’re by far my favorite journalist.

Personally I don’t understand why Dan didn’t simply sign Pat Mahomes. That would assuage every fan’s concern, nothing more, nothing less.

Y’all will be on his jock like white on rice the moment he completes a 20-yard pass in the preseason. ”start Pickett!”

You really didn't get what I was saying?

I don’t think he’s American.

Not in that order.

I don’t even remember Derek Loville. Was Randy Baldwin busy?

May the spirit of Barry Foster embolden the team to a victory.

Hey, this team always wins when it trades Pro Bowlers.

You don’t need a superstar TE. That would be a short-sighted move in the face of far greater needs.

No TE in the first round. OL, Edge, LB or CB.

Chelsea wouldn't show up otherwise.

Make a call and see what Indy wants for Richardson. Probably not much. If it is, don't do it.

Schefter works for Tepper and PFF.

Here's the thing; the Panthers were the better team against TB. The officiating in that game was historically awful toward only one team. If the Panthers win that game, though, the Saints-Falcons tilt means nothing and it gets fewer eyeballs. Also, if the Panthers win that game, I'm gonna predict "Yeah 9-8, nothing to be proud of" would be the motto around here. There's plenty of negativity. Poking holes in a playoff season, something that comes once per decade or so around here, seems to be an unhealthy exercise.

And they finished last! Who finished first?

Never said it was, friend. But it's a team game. Remember QB wins not being a real stat?

Interesting how some people lay blame at the foot of the quarterback after the defense blew the lead the offense provided them, and for a wide-open dropped pass on the last drive that was acknowledged as a drop by non PFF-employed, non Tepper-employed FOX analysts and former players. The whole team, at every position, could have played better. But singling out one to place all the blame looks pretty ridiculous. Perhaps we'll next get a "swept by the Saints" comment to complete the set.

Jeff King caught two of Jimmy Clausen's three touchdown passes. He deserves respect.
