They are still in the Super Bowl. They are winning. Stop being stupid.

If we draft a QB I will support him. Been watching some highlight of Willis and Pickett and both are raw. If we draft one of them I would red shirt him for a year. Which I fully support. That said, Rhule probably won’t do that since he will likely be fighting for his job and if he thinks the rookie gives him the best chance to win now he will start. I think a rookie QB will surprise this season. Would be cool to be proven wrong in my thinking of the current QBs.

Kinda feel sorry for whatever coach comes after Rhule. Depleted team and possibly a bust at QB. I definitely think we could win 3 or less games next season. My question is if we draft a QB, like Pickett, and we get the 1st overall pick and a college QB shows to be special and NFL ready do we draft another QB in 2022 even with Pickett or whoever? Will we have a Josh Rosen situation on our hands?

Even if we get Pickett or some other QB I will try to think positively. He can't be as bad as Darnold and he won't be damaged goods like Darnold. Also, and this is more personal, Google won't tell me I am spelling Arnold, Darnel or Donald wrong. Rhule knows that he is on limited time and that mean desperation. So he will draft a QB thinking that if they can fix the O-line in free agency and later draft picks maybe he will win enough to stay for another year. Unfortunately our cap space isn't that great and after we pay whatever players I doubt we will have enough to get any offensive lineman worth anything. This offseason is gonna suck.

Sam’s line was terrible but the team around him and the defense were good enough to have a much better record than they did. If Sam is the starter in 2022 he will be a liability. A good line or better team isn’t gonna make him magically not do boneheaded crap.

Unfortunately us fans have to pay by watching Darnold play terribly next year. Feel like fans are just as screwed.

Agree. Perfect situation is trade down to 10-15th and get a 1st and second. Draft Pickett or best QB and best OL available. But more than likely, like a lot of teams, if they think the player/QB they want may be gone by 10 to 15th they will jump the gun. Depends what QB needy teams are after us and what those teams may select.

Also having a franchise QB and star-in-the-making WR help too.

Man, weren’t they wrong. Horn will likely be a good CB, but woosh on the Sam Darnold thing.

I know a lot of people will not like it but I really do think we’ll take a QB at 6th. Use free agency and the rest of our picks to hopefully to improve the OL. We

Go Cincy. I guarantee most of America will be backing the underdog.

Stafford is such a choke.

Yup.

Still the plan the Bengals for Burrow is what Rhule wanted Darnold to do. Short quick passes and running. Unfortunately Darnold sucks at it and Burrow was pretty good it.

A franchise QB can make a bad OL look decent. But a team will be hindered by a bad QB no matter how good the OL is. We need an OL but we really need a QB that can rise above a bad OL, even if his OL is good. Panthers have neither in Darnold. I laughed when the Bengals hired Zac Taylor because it looked like another McVay hire. Bengals have a very smart coaching staff and beat the Chiefs the way you are supposed to. Way to go Bengals and Burrow and Chase. Go get a Super Bowl.

That is fine. Only reason I watch the Super Bowl is because occasionally it is entertaining even though our team isn't in it. Chiefs constantly making it gives me less reason to watch.

Don't think I will bother watching the Super Bowl if the Chiefs make it again. Same teams making it over and over, year after year is so boring for a non-fan. I had enough of that poo with the Patriots.

Whatever you thought about him. NFL is less without him. He started when I was still in high school and now I am almost 40. His career was simply amazing. I hate him, but I would have loved him on my Panthers.

The last time, this year, the Bengals and Chiefs played the Bengals won.

Chiefs are reaching Patriots levels of annoying. I was hoping with Brady leaving we would finally have more competitive conferences. Now the Chiefs are the freaking Patriots reincarnated.

I mean we did see this season. Darnold has never finished an entire season not injured, if I remember correctly.

Here is only thing I can almost guarantee will happen at 6. We won’t trade back. As much as the Panthers say they will be looking to upgrade the OL this offseason don’t be surprised if we draft Pickett or a QB and sign some more OL in FA. Not a fan of this but this team has made a lot of questionable decisions. I would rather them wait till 2023 and roll with either a veteran, or as much as it pains me, Darnold.

I find it funny how everyone is saying this is was a really good game. I disagree. It was an offensive focused game, but not “the best game ever”. I am kinda tired of calling games with terrible defense and tons of points “amazing games”. They are fun to watch, but as a football game it was pretty bad. Kinda reminds me of the Eagles and Patriots Super Bowl. Terrible defense and tons of points=“Best Game Ever”. Give me a 21-17 game over a 42-40 game any day. But I am kinda old fashioned.
