Well it's not going to change if they keep running the same limited offense. Replace 1 guy vs 4 guys who have actually looked good for a long stretch last year? Im going with the 4 guys every time.

Build a competent O and let him compete in 24. They have 4 guys on the oline that can play well in another approach. Do that now and let him try his hand from undercenter a little.

Any team can underprepare when facing a pushover so it's possible. I'm not expecting anything to get better beyond another team laying a turd on Sunday maybe. 1 or 2 wins looks like a lock as long as Fritterer and Rhule still hold positions. An interim HC could make changes and pull a couple of wins but I'm not expecting that much competency or deviation from the failed plan they put together in the offseason.

They are already dead it's just about the when now. They will sputter some more and a move will have to be made. I don't see any rally coming for that team.

It's was a home game for Dallas before last night. Make that money!

Trying to build around Bryce is a dead end. Just play Dalton and run what works with the oline. Doing more in the wrong direction will just end in more failures. Just admit they made a huge mistake is the first step in trying to improve things.

I still can't believe the hype that man got here. It never made sense to me. He was so not good in Indy and he looks worse in Carolina. The desperation post-Rhule drove people blind.

There isn't anyone hired or on the roster worth building around. Just work with what they have in 24 and build better, not around past mistakes.

Need to emphasize 'hire a consultant' because he isn't capable of just doing better. This is who he is.

Tepper has a long long list of regrets already after 5 years. Not sure Wilks makes it up very high on that list. The HC he just faced should be higher than Wilks on that list.

There has to be a PS OG out there that is worth a try over the Thockproblem.

Does not matter really what you call him because he is screwed either way. He isn't good enough to overcome the ownership, FO and coaches and nothing is going to magically improve this offseason with the same people in charge. Ok. Now trade him for what they spent. I'll wait on his current value. Nothing definitive but a sure gauge of which way that is going. He had a bad game on Sunday. OK, it happens. Look at his best and it's a huge let down to very concerning. Combine that with the fact he is already screwed regardless and none of this is surprising.

With how the stadium crowd looked I'm not sure you couldn't call it a home game for them anyways.

Both an obvious year too late?

I guessed he would do the polar opposite after Rhule and hire an old NFL coach with just as many peoblems and he went for Frank. He isn't afaid to make moves but please show me a good move he has made? The stuff Tepper values is not producing good football, that's the trend with him.

Anyone with a brain would chose that at this point but I need to see it to believe Tepper chose that path. That is my dream scenario so it's not going to happen. He will hire to make Bryce what he thought he was and it's not going to change a damn thing in any positive ways for Bryce or us.

And it was known when they signed him that he has never played a full season of games in 5 years...

SF can't draft or sign well and Frank isn't a HC much longer either in weeks or years. There are zero benefits to keeping both but the firing is also more complicated than the owner can handle. It would be easy to say fire them all but who is replacing them and how do you get anyone decent to take the job under more than 'just try and build Bryce up'. If they hire specifically to protect the choice to trade up for Bryce then it is just more of the same and any good option would make the most of what they have anyways. I would love to see them all fired, the entire FO and staff. I do not trust any plans beyond that step.

Yup. I don't see a good path and I see lots of bad options goinng forward. Fans are still stuck on 'just build around him like Miami did' but that is just insane to hear when they clearly already have and this was their foundation of that dream. The future of the team doesn't rely on Young, the people who picked him do. Even with all they spent on him they could just eat the pain and move along with egg on their face. The people who picked him can't until it turns around or they are fired. And then there is Tepper and that is it's own nightmare. He is a gunslinger and he would turn it over some with a much better oline. At least for a little while at best.

The need to justify picking him is a real problem. If not then switch back the oline blocking. Can't. It would harm Bryce so keep having really bad play and just blame the oline that they built for their new QB. Owner, FO/Coaches and then having to justify that pick is the chain of blame for the offense in my eyes. None of that is Bryce's direct fault, even with his meh play, but he also can't get away from it either. In a way he is the center of the offensive problems, not him personally but all that he is tied to that has led to the corner they put themselves in. IDK a hostage to the Owners', FO's and coaches' mistakes may be a better way of putting it. They can't even sit him 'to grow' without taking a massive beating.

The early years right after Haslam bought it. 9 years to put 1 winning season together and is just now working on the second one since 2012.

This place has been more fun and relevant to Panther's football to me then anything on the field for years.

It's from blocking the bot...
