If there is 1 thing this team has shown it is more than capable of, it is heart-breaking disappointment. I wait until there are some preseason games before I get too optimistic, because I cannot think of a time when we looked bad in preseason and it didn't directly translate to the regular season. There has never been a switch this team could throw and turn it on, even in the good years. Regarding the Atlanta game, I am hesitant to make much of it. Don't get me wrong..wins are nice, and wins against hated rivals are even nicer. On its own though, it might just be that, and not a trend.

It is very possible. It is also very possible that the Bears, even with those improvements, could still be the 4th team in that division.

Alternatively, CBS Sports has him on bust alert. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/bust-alert-nine-nfl-players-who-are-running-out-of-time-to-prove-themselves-entering-2025-season/

Bengals are a notoriously cheap franchise. When they were pursuing Tony Siragusa as a free agent, they provided him with a coach plane ticket. Players were responsible for their own soap and toiletry items. None would be provided by the team. They are content to underpay their best defensive player with what amounts to a short term prove it type deal. The offset language at issue in the contract has not been included in their previous contracts, so it certainly sounds like buyer remorse.

I have not watched the video. Rather, I was lucky enough to listen live when it was broadcast. I remember once he was getting gas at the next pump over from me. Always 1 of my favorites. Even when he ran down to New Orleans to try to make their squad after getting released here. I didn't want him to be the gm. I am tired of seeing Panther legends dragged down by the remarkable losing this team manages to do.

They will never be good enough to put that game in their past. "ATL" stands for All-Time Losers, and I'm pretty sure they have to display that on their uniforms for legal purposes.

Just have to see how the off-season additions work out, what kind of impact rookies have, if there is a positive answer to the really, really big question at qb, or if we have just rearranged the deck chairs on the Titanic. Could be an exciting season, either way.

Conversely, a good team should have no problem going on the road to defeat an inferior opponent.

Everyone's favorite ESPN reporter is already predicting playoffs in their schedule article.

The Bucs absolutely tanked the last game of the season in order to draft Winston. It happens. In regards to the lottery, there has always been way too much smoke for there to be nothing burning there. Always has been way too much coincidence, and little visibility. Even if it was all on the up and up, the league has to know there is this negative perception, and they do nothing to change or remedy it.

It would Lions-Vikings if this is real. 2 playoff teams, division rivals.

The franchise is cursed. It's easier when you realize that. They are so cursed they don't even have a superstar player to stupidly trade away to ensure the top pick in the following rigged lottery. They are never going to win anything. A successful season is around 30 wins or so.

I have seen a couple of these. Not a bad watch at all.

I would absolutely not pay $10k. That said, there are more than a couple of stadiums that present a far superior game day experience than a Panthers home game.
