Atlanta is further a long at this stage. They’re also the home team and the overall feeling right now is pretty damn cloudy for us. I’m not sure this roster is there yet going into this season. Way too many question marks , new coach , new staff new QB etc. Too many bad players on the team in my opinion and not enough game wreckers. We pretty much have only 1 guy who teams have to account for in Burns but he isn’t anything like what Peppers was for us back in the day. There’s just not enough juice on this team right now. Before preseason I thought maybe 8 or 9 wins, 10 if they’re really lucky. Now I’d say they’re a 6 or 7 win team after seeing guys compete in preseason. They’ve gotten their asses kicked 2 weeks in a row.

Luckily I just don’t care like I used to. 5-6 years ago and before that if the team lost it would make me cranky the rest of the day. Now I simply don’t give an F if they win / lose. Sometimes I don’t even tune in. It’s quite liberating actually to watch a game and not get upset or to even skip it (probably from the trauma of being a panther fan since Cam got hurt)

This is true. It’s still scary to watch though lol

I think it’s more Rhule’s fingerprints still all over the team. Tepper referred to him as CEO coach during his short time here. Horn being hurt all the time isn’t anyone’s fault, his talent is undeniable thus far when he’s actually been on the field. Icky is going to be the LT for 10 years if he can stay in the field, he’s got all the tools to be a good tackle. Trading away the draft capital + DJ Moore is going to delay the rebuild behind Bryce . I think he’s going to be good. I don’t think his ceiling is as high as Cam’s but I think he will be a consistent pro QB. The TE room needed someone that is a pass threat. Been missing this since Olsen. I am concerned about Miles having groin issues so early and his contract isn’t anything crazy. Yes a little rich vs the rest of the RB market but the team is much better cap room shape moving forward I don’t have an issue with the aggressiveness to get this team on track. I wonder if anyone knows or can find an article on the chances of success that a team has after trading an arm and a leg to move up to get a QB at number 1 like we did. I would think it’s almost better to let the draft come to you or just wait another year to get a QB but what do I know..

Bryce is the QB. He’s not sitting. He’s been the QB since draft night

He’s always on the ground

Chicago is loving this…they’re gonna get a top 5 pick now *hot take

There’s 0 excuse on why pro OLinemen can’t diagnose a stunt.

Nothing lost here because there’s Mingo TMJ is on his way out of here is my prediction.

With all due respect Coach Reich should have a plan to always protect the new franchise QB. Practice , joint practice , preseason etc - it should never ever be to where they allow another defense to tee off on Bryce , that’s insane. To just go out there and wing it, someone is gonna get hurt. To use “preseason” as an excuse to not have the OL ready is really frustrating to hear as a fan when the new QB is so crucial. Whenever Bryce touches any type of the field , there needs to be a plan in place. the OL - they’re in the big leagues and they act like they never seen a stunt before just because it’s preseason. That was some of the worst OL play I’ve ever watched. Really hard to believe that was a pro group out there. It was awful. And the Jets didn’t even have their big studs out there.

You could see he belongs out there. That’s all I needed to see yesterday.

The defense needed something like this. Can never have enough pass rush.

Yeh this is actually concerning. LOL

But he looks like he weighs 170 lbs

Stroud put on a show after the draft. The trade occurred 5 minutes after the draft. It must be Stroud. I hope it is. Elite thrower

It’s gonna be really insane when they take AR over young , stroud

Would’ve preferred a WR signing

Wish we retained Wilks. It is what it is.

This isn’t on Wilks. PJ isn’t a pro QB - this game is so brutal Tepper gave full control to Rhule, someone who had no idea what he was doing.

I feel so bad for Wilks. what an absolute train wreck of a team

Imagine all of the cap space and draft picks they could’ve kept if they just trusted their draft process. Draft your QB - you’ll know within 1-2 seasons if he’s the answer. If he isn’t, draft the next QB and try again. That way you save cap and picks so you can continue to build your roster.

Tepper is going to hold rhule because everyone else is selling rhule “I can feel it in my small brass balls that Rhule is gonna get 6 wins - that’s 1 more win than last year. I’m riding out the storm”

TMJ is gonna find himself out of the league sooner rather than later

Every snap is such a struggle this is crazy

The team still has no clue what it’s doing on offense
