CRA

In a vacuum I agree, but given where we are as a franchise? I don’t like putting money in 2nd contracts for RBs…especially when you just drafted the “best RB in the draft”. That Chubba money could go to all the billion other holes and we don’t have lots of money

Like Hubbard. On and off the field. But this isn’t the type thing a team where the Panthers currently sit need to be making. We just drafted a RB in round 2. We have a billion needs. We don’t have a great cap situation. Tying up real money in a committee RB is a luxury move only good/win now teams should be making.

Panthers are run by Tepper. Cowboys are run by Jerry. I chalk this up to two idiotic owners meeting up vs Dan Morgan being savvy. Because nothing about Dan says Dan is a good deal maker. We probably should only deal w/ the Cowboys, Raiders, etc.

I'm 2-0 in the building. I was their Friday too. Great game. I'm still learning soccer.....but sure seems the refs did all they could to help Orlando in that one.

I do think DJ was a Fields guy. on that play, it sure looks like DJ initially hopped off w/ an ankle. But who knows, there is a another clip with him almost shoulder checking Caleb on another play.

well, the comparison is to last year. The OL is a 180 degree from that.... and overall on the season they have had better skill talent for the same QBs behind a MUCH better OL. So yeah, the O not looking any better overall is a red flag for Canales. It's the NFL. I big picture don't care if Canales is a rookie HC. There are 32 of these jobs in the world. Given what we have the most expensive OL in the league.....we should be better offensively than last year.

Bryce "The Grimm Reaper" Young. Dude has played 20 games and taken out 2 NFCS coaches in that time span.

this the Panthers. so what would be the worst case scenario? Bryce hangs around. We win like 2 more games. Bryce still clearly sucks and isn't a NFL QB. We do however manage to win ourselves out of the Ward, Sanders, etc sweepstakes. We go into next season with some pointless QB battle of Bryce Young, some Joe Flacco type and some practice squad type player.

I think Canales needs to hire an OC. He should 100% be focusing on HC duties. Reality is, Canales is a super green OC/playcaller.....and it's not the time for him to be double dipping and being young and not very good at 2 jobs.

OL is a 180 though, this O regardless of who is playing QB should be substantially better than last year. And it really isn’t. That’s the Canales red flag

Canales couldn’t answer if Bryce would start again because Tepper will have to tell him what to do in that Monday morning meeting

I’m anti-Bryce. He isn’t an NFL QB. He serves no purpose here. that said, for the same reason Canales was right to bench him after week 2….Bryce technically does indeed deserve another start now. because Andy was dog poo the weeks leading up to his injury….and Bryce frankly had a decent day. He had that deep pass dropped for what should have likely been a TD. Another big one perfect to XL that ended being a INT on XL.

lol. Canales has never called a good O. Ever. We hired a playcalling HC and that ain’t actually his thing. If he wanted to tank he wouldn’t have benched Bryce week 2….and Dalton was hot garbage after his debut game Canales needs to hire a real OC and be a cheerleader

We have the worst roster in the NFL….dudes are on the field because we don’t have anyone. They wouldn’t be contributing on a good roster right now

I doubt Bryce has lots of audible authority at this stage. I bet he is just making the check change that Canales gives him based off the look.

Watching my Saints today, got their D in my money league

It’s over. O was never there today from the jump.

ball game in Clemson. fug Lousivlle and their cut blocking. Well, I was wrong about Clemson. Thought their O was better than it apparently is. Clemson might take 2 more Ls after this. That’s Gamecocks game being 1 of them

I don’t think this is the normal approach. Think they thought their weakened OL couldn’t hang so they consistently have cut blocked all game. Taken 2 freaking DL out with it. And it just has killed the front of Clemson from being able to play……and I don’t blame them for playing cautious and not wanting their knees blown. I wish they would just ban cut blocking. Hope Dabo makes a lot of noise about what BS it is. Specifically as an all game strategy by your whole OL. Maybe not directly after the game (because it’s crying then), but I hope he gets on that soapbox eventually

I freaking hate teams that cut block all freaking game. I can’t recall seeing a team do it to the extent Lousivlle is in a long time. Does it work? Yes. It has worked this game. It totally Impacts how a defensive front plays because they don’t want to get hurt. Has this game. Pretty sure Louisville finally snapped someone’s leg just there. Clemson’s O isn’t doing their job so the L will be on them and the O. They should be good enough to outside them. They ain’t tonight. L is in the O. But for real, fug cut blocking kids all freaking game. It works. To me that cheap and dirty football.

Given how bad we appear….teams might see how we just gave away a WR we didn’t want. Teams could be offering some really stupid low ball stuff at us.

Well they play tonight. Too many games actually I want to watch in that window. SMU clearly the surprise of the ACC this year. I still think based on play to date…Clemson gets the nod. They have dominated everyone since that bad UGA 2nd half.

Miami asks him every week to do this. Eventually, they are going to lose and it most likely won’t be on Ward. They asking the impossible at a certain point in terms of Ward week in and week out

Yep. Every ACC matchup is problematic for Miami. They just aren’t a good team. great QB. Clemson is the best team in the ACC. They would beat Miami 2 out of 3. You might could argue Miami has the highest ceiling on a good day via Ward in a shootout I guess

the argument that Dan Morgan was assistant GM for years while running counter to everything both his bosses signed off on (who look down at him and his staff for info).....is a tough sell. I feel we do a variant of this every year. You aren't this bad...becuase of 1 person. You are this bad because of LOTS of bad people. It was never just Joe Brady. Which is why firing him didn't lead to better offense. It was never just Matt Rhule. It was never just Fitterer. As bad as we are, we need to scorch Earth this puppy and quit letting people who were part of making the mess be the designed folks to lead us out of the mess. when David Tepper and Jim Caldwell found the answer on the roster......it was clear from the jump nothing had really changed.
