Right up there with hater/hating as well.

Tied for 6th best in the league, with 2.5 seconds of pocket time. Make of that what you will. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2023/passing_advanced.htm

While Tepper is still an idiot until he shows he's not, IMO folks are making too big of a deal about the tenure length. Rhule's teams showed no improvements across 2+ years, and Tepper should have fired him after 2021 anyway (ignoring that he never should have bene hired int he first place); this year's team was absolutley inept and also showed zero improvement from week to week, both interms of players and strategy. It's not difficult to explain that improvement on the field buys time, even if it takes abit for the wins to come through. Dan Campbell in 2021 is the exact example of this - that team won very few games, but they showed steady improvement throughout the season and a drive to compete. Carolina has a massively deep hole to climb out of and one season may not be enough for a big change in the W/L column. While I was always against the Reich hire, this was the same barometer for him. There was likely much more behind the scenes that we aren't aware of, particularly regarding handling of Bryce, but it was ovious that the team was not growing at all. Talking heads like to make a big deal out of it but NFL coaches see all that and a frank conversation with Tepper can explain exactly what the issues were that led to Reich being let go, just like any other job on the planet. In the end it will come down to if Tepper has actually learned anything and if candidates actually believe him if he say he has. In generla though this particular aspect of the process is probably the easiest one.

I see someone has some time on their hands.

I'm not sure about that, but 2014 wasn't too far off of this, particularly in the receiver room, and Cam dragged them to the playoffs in the similarly-weak NFC South. There was some more talent on that OL for sure, but that year's tackles were on par with this year's guards.

My God, Cam with the offense the Hurts has would be amazing. We already know what magic Cam could do with an offense like Carolina's this year.

Wtf is LaFleur doing? This is negligent.

Green Bay is screwing around. Just end it already.

Oh crap, Jordan Love has a towel on his head.

And that is why arm strength matters.

Does this cool the 'Dan Quinn for a coaching spot' talk a bit?

This is absolutely delicious.

I am.rolling at the guy standing there waiting to put the sunglasses on Aaron Jones.

Poor Micah... those big bullies on the Packers aren't being nice.

Harbaugh and Jerry Jones in the same building... that could be fun.

Tends to happen to game managers against top competition.

God I hope Green Bay can pull this off. They couldn't have asked for a better start to the game.

We were at the game last night and Tua had receivers open at the deep corners and to the perimeter all night. The Chiefs challenged him to take it while clamping down on the short and middle (god how great was it to see those DBs lighting up those short swing passes) and Tua/Miami had no answers. That TD lob to Tyreek was a serious rainbow even before the wind killed it too. In fairness, it was really, really cold. But Mahomes played in the same weather and the throws were moving fine for the most part. Big physical difference on display.

He did not look good tonight at all and the Chiefs defense smothered them. The Dolphins wilted very quickly and I have no idea wtf McDaniel was calling. And it is damn cold.

It's already cold as poo here. Very much so. Still thinking about those dirt-cheap lower-level tickets...

I linked this exact video in a thread a while back and Clausen throws smoke compared to Bryce. Never thought I'd say such a thing or go looking for a Clausen highlgiht video but here we are.

That's always been part of my argument against backing the truck up for Burns - he gets some stats but just doesn't impact the game. Not only do I not remember a single play this year, I can't recall a single memorable play from his entire career thus far even though I've watched majority of the games. It's an unscientific metric, but I feel like someone getting paid in elite money should have at least a handful of memorable plays... hell, even Jeremy Chinn has a few of those and he may not even be on the team next year.
