I think trap game only applies to a good team facing an inferior opponent.

Absolutely, and I would hope that someone smarter than me is making that ultimate decision. He has been better than ok, despite the shortcomings. Top half of the league, top 20ish. The unfortunate trend is every off-season seems to feature the next highest-paid player at their position. If I had to go on a hunch, we will pay him what he wants, because of everything that doesn't equate to his performance on the field. I don't think I would lose sleep over it, again it's not my money or choice, but he isn't worth that kind of deal.

The problem with giving him a big payday is that he probably will always be lesser than his peers in pass protection. He has improved in that area somewhat, but enough to reset the left tackle market? Not my money, I don't really care, but I am not so sure he should command that amount.

Find it in the draft. Really the only method. There is such a premium on the position that what's available and affordable on the market is either over-the-hill hasbeens, never-weres, and flawed prospects.

I don't think you can count on 9 wins getting you in anyway, unless a team wins a division with 9 wins. Bengals won 9 games last season and did not make it. Seahawks won 10 and did not make it. Too many better teams ahead.

I mean, they could run the table. Not probable, but possible.

He's a no-go.

Fields can run around and make things happen. Of course, those things are not always good things. My hope is we get the 9 sacks, -10 yards passing version of Fields, and not the 1 that rushed for 1000 yards as a qb.

That is kind of my problem as well. They look very unfinished, as if the intent was just to get something made up so they could say there is an alternate helmet. It is a little reminiscent in that way of teams that make up a black alternate uniform because it's black.

I don't care for the black helmets. I do like the results though.

It would be very Panthers to go up there and get absolutely boat raced and provide them with their 1st win.

Agreed, but honestly and unfortunately, I would guess most of those fans weren't traveling from Texas, but from right around the corner and down the street.

At the very least, at the absolute minimum, he hasn't been a waste of payroll like a former te was for his too-long tenure here.

Jerruh was just eager to get over to the glory hole.

I actually don't think the team is terrible outside of Young. Not good by any means, but not bottom of the NFL bad either. Young, however, pulls them down to that level. It is unfortunate there is no one on the roster as a viable alternative to Young.

He's dead man walking at this point.

Lol. fuging clown show.

I think we see the offense with a 3 and out this series. Young is showing improvement.

Well that should do it. It will take a miracle comeback from Young to turn this around. I don't think he has it in him.

Sure feels like it's time to fall behind by an insurmountable amount of points.

Good play there, Young.

Well, as Steve Spurrier used to say at Florida, you can't spell citrus without u-t. Different Manning, different school, same result.

Saints tank job hoping for Arch should be over.
