Are you forgetting that the team could not score in the second half of games? Hell, they only scored 3 second-half TDs the entire month of December. That doesn't make Reich any better, but the 2020 team had more than its share of suck. My expectations for this 2023 team were already low because of all the change but this has been worse than I anticipated.
-
Ah yes, the 'Why dies Stephen Gilmore keep slapping our receivers in the head?" game. That was a fun one. -
Stats do not tell the story at all. Please tell me when Burns has blocked field goals, taken an interception 100 yards the other way, picked a fumble out of the air and returned it for a TD... just a handful of his impact plays that go beyond the stat sheet. Burns is very good, but it is flat out incorrect to say he's on Peppers' level even year-for-year in their careers.
-
Burns is nowhere near Peppers, who made huge splash plays and would simply take over games at times. Peppers would be, at times, the best player on not just the defense but the entire field. Burns is never that.
-
I meant the poor FO is correctable. Not sure what the point of the rest is, as it seems to agree that Burns is a complementary piece. Those pieces aren't worth top dollar.
-
That's a different issue though, and one that is ultimately correctable. And again, Burns is the same player he's always been, a very good-to-great pass rusher that just isn't a significant difference-maker.

Post how you feel in one picture of gif.... no words, just images.

Very Clausen- or Bridgewater-esque.
-
Yeah, no. What a ludicrous stance to take.
-
Problem was that he needed to drop the coach in too, but looking like they fumbled that as well for the time being.
-
Been saying for years that Burns is a fantastic complementary piece and not a game-changer by himself - it was very clear. Guess it took the contract negotiation for it to finally be widely realized, as he just doesn't seem to have developed any farther.

EL OH EL ZEE

Are the Panthers struggling to sell tickets?!?

They were calling like 3 times a day at one point. It was way more than just email. -

FWIW, we went to a Sporting KC game a few months back, our first ever, and the follow-up calls and sales attempts were relentless. It was truly obnoxious. -
Come on now, no need for excuse after excuse. Dude just isn't very good. The stats reflect that pretty accurately, as does just watching him.
-
All of it was under Wilks - why is that relevant? Dude didn't play until week 5 vs SF and that was one of his games over 3 targets (4 targets and 4 catches for 30 yards), so he has 12 games under Wilks with 24 catches as the de facto #2 receiver playing 65% of the snaps. He is not currently above replacement level and has never shown anything otherwise.
-
What did he show exactly? He had 28 catches in 13 games, majority of those with 3 targets or less.
-
Was hurt most of last year and is currently suspended for gambling for a few more games. Don't see them trading him this year.
-
That's a given, just isn't how the NFL works these days
-
Re-signing Jackson was a huge head-scratcher, just like re-signing Ian Thomas. Just... bad stuff.
-
Firing Rivera was the right move. Tepper has just made wrong one after wrong one ever since.
-
Considering how bad the NFCS was last year and how much better the AFC is as a whole right now then the NFC, and that the Texans played the NFCE last year, that means nothing.
-
I'm 100% serious. To expand on that, the Rams/Chiefs game a few years back that so many rave about was some of the most boring crap football I've watched in a long time. Ridiculously overrated.
-
I went to a local high school football game the other week where the teams scored 99 total points and the game lasted over 3 hours. It really was incredibly boring.
-
Burns isn't being double-teamed much and certainly isn't making a $30M impact but saying he's done absolutely nothing is hyperbole. He's been doing what he's always done.
