133 yards, 2 Goal line TDs on 4 yards a carry. Curious how you think it looks bad? Were there stuffed runs for no or negative gains? Yes, but the Bucs defense plays too. Only other back to go over 100 this year was Swift in Philly. The Run game was one of the few positives yesterday.

What will he do? Probably continue to drop Burns in coverage. He was my favorite hire of the offseason but Ive become quite indifferent if he stays or goes. Lot of talk here about the yardage rankings while ignoring we've given up the 3rd most TDs in the league at 35, dead last in the NFL in turnovers and second to last in sacks with 18 (Chicago is last with 17) This defense is not good. It's honestly well below average. An obvious fluff article from the Panthers website doesn't change that. Sure he has had a rough go with the combination of injuries and our anemic offense but let's not cherry pick stats to make it seem like he has made chicken salad out of chicken poo... because it's still poo.

Officially activated and eligible to play.

I'd take a chance at Kellen Moore with those odds. He was a finalist last year and hasn't hurt his stock with the Chargers.

Hope so. But not optimistic. Whole heartedly expect Baker and Mike Evans do destroy this decimated secondary. If Horn is back maybe... but not exactly optimistic about that either.

Missed about half a dozen tackles. Sure it's Henry but they're missed tackles.

I want to win the next 6 games. I want to win every game. Nothing is going to ever change that.

Valid. Not saying a similar arrangement couldn't work here. Also not saying he should be the end all hire. Was just playing a little devils advocate. Lynch came with no front office experience and hell he was a Fox host himself. Comparison seemed appropriate lol.

Or it's John Lynch, part two.

100% would be all in as long as he brings his current youth football DC with him. He would instantly command respect. Was a vocal leader as a player. Hell he had better clock management and situational awareness than Ron Rivera did and would lamblast him for stupid timeouts and challenges routinely.

Hate it for Frank the man but I think we all knew despite the rose colored glasses that being a homer, having the number 1 pick, the collective greatness of the staff on paper all brings that this was never going to work out. Even his staunchest defenders likely came to that realization around the Miami game I'd imagine. The offense is archaic and despite the holes on the roster (don't get me started on Fitt... firmly believe he should have been the first to go) there is simply no scheme, adjustment or improvement on a game by game basis. We bickered back and forth about "its just preseason" and when reporters questioned what our identity was as an offense because it was impossible to discern during our 4 games his response was "Good" as if it were all by design while the writing was on the wall the entire time. The fact that this offense after 11 putrid games makes me yearn for the days of Joe Brady, Ben McAdoo and Mike Shula should be all the confirmation needed something needed to change. I imagine he lost the locker room as well. Players have been checked out for about a month now. All the best to Frank and his family, it was a great story but that's all it was. Here's to hoping 3rd times the charm!

Don't let the door hit you on the way out. This offense is archaic and the epitome of trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. That said idk if I'm in on Evero anymore. Dropping Burns back into coverage on consecutive drop backs to open the game and in key situations like the end of half drive is beyond idiotic. If he's going to keep doing stupid poo like that he can collect his thing and join Frank in the unemployment line

I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole at that contract but I'd sign him for the rest of the season at a reasonable price.

Spend my Sundays watching and rooting for a competitive team I genuinely thought could (and I expected to) win every game.

Enjoy man!

I would take him over Eddy. Hes welcome on the Panthers for sure.

Well alrighty then

It blows my mind he's still playing through that if that's what it is. Our safety I played with in high school almost lost his leg to the same thing. Hurt his leg and played through it woke up the next morning and his entire leg was brusied and swollen. Found out his muscle was detached and went through emergency surgery same day.

Louisville will get a chance to take a deep shot in the 4th just like he did against UVA last week. Miami is asking for it. Brohm will draw it up probably to Huggins-Bruce and we'll see if Plummer can hit it but there should be a shot play in the next 4-5 snaps.

Man as a Louisville fan it kills me watching Plummer. Brohm got a late start to recruiting getting hired in late so I get it, you're scrambling to find someone who can run your offense but at this point in the season with 5 QBs on this roster and one of them being a 4 star guy I refuse to believe he's still the best answer.

The longer this game stays out of Van Dykes hands the better Miami's chances.

They'd be 10-0 if he was even slightly average. Plummer is trash. Has been all season. The Run game and Defense have been top tier.

2024 is 6 weeks away..... Never said he thinks both make it to the 2024 season... (let me cope)

We should lose by at least 35. Team has checked out and we have no offense and our biggest weaknesses match up with Dallas strengths. Legit could be 17 point home underdogs. So of course we'll win and buy Frank and Fitt another month.

100% agree with you. That said I'd be remiss if we didn't acknowledge while our line may be better (even that's debatable) I'd take Bienemy over Reich/Brown and any of their position players over ours. Straight up. Brian Robinson > Miles, Chuba Logan Thomas > Hurst, Tremble, Ian Terry, Curtis, Dotson > Thielen, Chark, Mingo
