CRA

We were able to rent a better pass rusher last season. I want a legit rebuild. And that starts on offense. It's an offensive league. Get a QB. Get him crazy weapons. Once you have that, you can put together a defense good enough to contend IMO. Because it doesn't have to be a great D if you have a great O.

Steve Smith had 500 yards and 2 TDs when paired with Jimmy Clausen. He wasn't great in a bad scenario. Jake/Moose and then a prime Cam is a much better spot than what DJ has lived in. Alshon Jefferies? He has fewer 1000 yard seasons in his career than DJ Moore. Kupp to date has less 1000 yard seasons than Moore. Yeah, he went off last year with a bonkers season on an all in WIN now team. That's not an example of a bad scenario. The Rams have been the most all in to win team in the NFL of late. With a great offensive HC. Tyreek Hill has been playing for Andy Reid and has had Mahomes as a QB. That isn't a bad scenario. Larry Fitzgerald game into the league played and developed with Bolden across from him and then got paired with a HOF QB. I mean, he definitely did perform at a high level later in bad spots. I'll give you that. But given how his career started, it's not the best example to give to a WR who was drafted and has spent his entire career in a very bad spot.

I mean you take that deal. You say goodbye to Burns. is Burns talented? Yes. But to date he has been an incomplete DE. A pass rush specialist that has never hit double digit sacks. Especially when your win horizon is down the road and have to draft a QB to build up.

great WRs aren't great WRs in bad scenarios. I know DJ Moore has been a good WR in a very bad scenario to date.

DJ Moore has 3 straight 1100+ seasons coming into this season. With no QB play and #3s lined up across from him in 2 roles. In what world have the lesser guys out performed him? CMC doesn't compare to DJ. Lot of CMCs passes are just checkdowns and an extension of the run game. And at his best, CMC is a sick slot WR. And slot guys just don't compare to 1s and 2s on the outside. I'd argue Hunter Renfrow is the best slot WR in the game right now and you can't talk about him in the same breath as outside WRs. I get DJ being a little annoying with his lack of emotion showing. But we saw that with Peppers. Board roasted Peppers.....as he effortlessly put in a HOF lock career. Not saying DJ is putting in that caliber of career....but he is seeing the same personality outlash.

WRs starting opposite DJ Moore 2018 Funchess 2019 Samuel 2020 Robbie 2021 Robbie 2022 Robbie/TMJ Everyone listed is ideally a #3 WR. Not a legit #2. Plus, no receiving TE on the field. I mean, Jefferson, Chase, Lamb, Waddle, Brown. Name a hot young WR and you can find studs that have lined up across from them. That hasn't been the case with DJ Moore. And on top on top of that he has had trash QB play too. DJ Moore is a stud. He would be doing cartoon stuff if he played elsewhere.

DJ Moore has spent his entire career in Carolina with essentially a #3 WR lined up opposite of him.

generally cost a first round pick though. And we need to spend ours on a QB.

Basically every fan base thinks the refs screw them when they lose

Polaroid selfies don’t count

I don't think Monday is even a day where they bring guys in is it? I mean, you can't fire him without having a replacement you like. I mean, it doesn't matter. I don't actually care about the W/L column. I just want the games to be entertaining and see growth in players. Him missing those kicks IMO was actually good in the big picture.

John Kasay never took pregame selfies

It’s all the same point. It’s why guys get cut, not resigned, etc. CJ Henderson made a great play. He isn’t a good DB. That’s what his play to date has been.

By NFL rosters standards, yeah there are good and bad players. No team has all good players playing over the course of a season. I can name a bunch of meh Panther players that have made a great play before.

his ratio of good to bad IMO is still too heavily skewed to the bad. It was a nice pick. Lot of bad players make a great play here or there.

No. Sam is still Sam. He has been Sam since college. He has always been Sam. Bad OL play doesn't make Sam bad Sam. That's just Sam. Good OL play will just give him more opportunities to be bad. We don't need to see anything. We don't want to resign Sam or Baker. Why would you want a fools gold game to sucker your team into that mistake. PJ is the only guy they should consider. And PJ would be brought in as the 2/3.

well, he basically didn't really play the first 5 games so that could aid him near the end.

I agree. Think Belichick has lobbied for that. You get 3 challenges and anything is fair game.

OL still sucks. Got to throw the sink at them and hope to get to Burrow before his WRs get open for huge gains.

just four PJ starts ago.

I don't blame him for the first miss. If you are asking an in season add/backup K to hit near 50 yard XPs to win games.....that not really a kicker issue. The last one though a backup K or anyone that takes a NFL check has to make.

Yes. Cam was flagged.

PJ has proven he can win more than one game. I mean he literally has won games all 3 seasons he has been a backup. he played well enough to win today too. That’s football though.

We have averaged 145 yards per game on the ground post Rhule firing. So we actually became a rushing team now that he is gone. all it took for Matt Rhule’s vision to become a reality was to fire him.

It was a 50 yard XP. That’s not on the K
