Everything this guy does is AI and you all just keep responding to him. Unreal.

It is.

Project on someone else. I never said anything about "his worth". Just commenting on a single play.

Citing various hero myths in response to being wrong is not empirical evidence that you have a point. It's weaponized arrogance. Act humbly.

I just saw this. The fact he leans over and sets the protection for Dowdle was a nice fake out. You could tell the edges held up instead of crashing down, trying to keep Bryce in the pocket, while the backers and secondary flowed to their coverages. The Packers loaded the box and if they thought it was a run, they easily could have stuffed it.

Ok... Slowing down on the run out of bounds, not getting rid of the ball when he saw and felt the rusher from his right and nearly losing a fumble (thank you Chuba), and then throwing a wobbly pick in the endzone. I mean 3 careless plays on the same drive. Wtf.

Derrick Brown Jaycee Horn Nic Scourton Tetairoa McMillian Princely Umanmielan Mitchell Evans Icky Ekwonu Ryan Fitzgerald I had 8 on my list, so yeah I pretty much agree. Everyone else, I am listening to offers.

Brees, Fitzgerald, Anderson, Kuechly, Woodson Those are my predictions for the next class.

Yeah and Pickens destroyed us. We were fortunate that Lamb was injured.

I mean... we haven't exactly faced competent offensive attacks yet, much less world-beaters. I expect Sunday to bring things into clearer view.

Imagine if we had taken CJ Henderson, Javon Kinlaw, or Isaiah Simmons over him like what was being talked about. Oof

You're starved for your boy T-Mac to catch 50 yard bombs. That's what this is really about.

No coach was ever fired for "winning ugly." But trying to be flashy or taking unnecessary risks in a game that was close down to the wire? What if this lead to losing the game? Not even because of mistakes or bad passes etc., but because of mismanaging the clock and field position because of the passing plays that were called in order to "develop the deep passing game"? Do you think Tepper would have given Canales a slap on the back and said "Hey, at least we should be better down the road, maybe. Good job, coach."? This is a team and fanbase starved for wins. Canales is delivering that. Nobody expects this team to win the Superbowl or even make the playoffs, he simply wants to instill confidence and a winning mentality into a group of men that need it. Once they learn how to win and start believing they can win and they ACTUALLY start winning, we can talk about other details. Winning changes a culture. The Panthers NEED a culture change. It doesn't matter right now how they get there.

That's quite literally his only job. Every year has new goals, new identities, etc. But the one constant is to win at all costs. He isn't guaranteed to be here next year UNLESS he wins. Why would he give a poo to mold a bunch of players someone else might be coaching?

This tracks. The secondary struggled yesterday. And maybe they struggled in coverage, but the linebackers made some plays.

That... Was a phenomenal pass.

I don't get that feeling. 2 min warning and 3 timeouts. No need to rush

Bullshit calls on our CBs and not having linebackers that can cover over the middle is killing us

Never underestimate the player that wants to stick it to his previous team. I think Dowdle has a big game again tomorrow.

It's the same look that Rhule and Reich had before they were fired. Tepper runs these guys into the ground before cutting them loose. He may be shitting the bed as a head coach, but I worry about the guy as a human being. He's an addict in recovery that seemingly found peace before working for this controlling asshole of an owner.

Yep that's what's going to do it. The Cleveland Browns' third string quarterback is the answer

I don't understand why we didn't sign him to our active roster. Tons of potential and looked decent in preseason. Could have been a good long term backup for us

It's mildly surprising to see David Moore play 56/58 snaps on offense while Tremayne and Renfrow played 16 or 17 snaps each. Tells you a bit about the current hierarchy at WR.

We used to go to a video store named Endless Entertainment when I was a kid. Kind of a knock-off Blockbuster chain. Good times.

Did you guys even pay attention to how Atlanta was defending the offense? Atlanta didn't lose today because of their defense. They played a lot of zone looks and kept the play in front of them because they knew that no one could beat them deep except tmac, and they pretty much had a corner pressing him and a safety over the top the entire game. As bad as Xavier has been this year, he changes how defenses play us. They knew all we had behind TMac was a bunch of short and intermediate receivers at best. Bryce took what the defense gave him, and yes there were some plays left on the field. Some of them were misfires by Bryce and some of them were dropped by receivers, and some were 3rd and long situations because of penalties by the offensive line. The offense as a whole is still trying to find its identity. I think you have to look at the full picture here people. And when you don't have the weapons to manipulate the defense, you take what you can. We missed Thielen, Coker, and yes, even XL today.
