I wouldn't mind if some people stopped breathing. I do like lemons though.

Metaphorically speaking, if you show up every week wearing the other team's jersey, are you really a fan?

Let me put it this way... You have a 99% chance to win if you do X. You have a 95% chance to win if you do Y. X is kick that field goal. It was the right decision. I think Wilks is too conservative. But in that very specific circumstance, that's the right call 100% of the time. The couple of runs got some yards and got us to XP range. An XP is waaaaay easier and is 99% a gimme compared to putting the ball in the air and kicking from further back or worst getting an interception. What you say then when he's gung ho for the TD well within FG range and things don't work out? Nah get outta here with that. It's not like we settled for a 53 yard attempt.

No, you are wrong here. That is a XP range we were in. The chance of an interception or fumble is higher than missing that kick. Hell, I would have kicked the field goal on the 1st down to avoid any chance of a fumble. Was it safer to kicker the field goal yes? Yes. Was it smarter than being risky with the football in that situation? Also yes.

I don't think that is what was said. It's been a couple hours since I watched it, but I'm pretty sure... They saw Kamara was available from somewhere (twitter, grapevine, w/e.) Called them. Got no response back, so they did no research. Media reported they were rejected.

I was speaking straight from a trade negotiation standpoint. The front office was looking at a 2nd a 3rd equivalent. All front offices use trade charts and that's how they would have weighed this offer.

Draft picks value decrease as well. Essentially the Rams offered us a 2nd and a 3rd. And depending on where that team is....in the future....those picks could be a late 2nd and late 3rd. Would have been moronic to take those "1st's". The coach after our next coach would have loved to have them I guess.

Greg Olsen was the same way, but he would then get 10 yac with his mind powers that slowed downed the defenders to his speed.

No, too conservative. Seems more conservative than Ron even.

At least he isn't throwing picks yet?

Chinn still on IR?

No reason to root for a loss. If enough fans want to tank, will the team win less games? A low pick is a consolation prize for sucking. No reason to hope for that poo. We'll either get a low pick or we won't and nothing anybody here wants is going to affect that. Some motherfugers are just miserable human beings and want everyone around them to be unhappy as well. Losers don't like being alone I guess.

Would only take 10 seconds here. If there were alot of them who want to tank, there should be threads on the front page. I'm not going to check though because this is dumb as poo. This poo ain't a job. But yeah, if the overall vibe is they want their team to tank and it's taking more than 10 minutes to figure that out....wtf? O.o "overall vibe" is obvious in seconds. When you walk in a room, takes you 10 minutes to figure out the vibe? You write some dumbass poo.

Myles Garrett signed a 5 year deal. Year one cap hit is $9M. I'd expect Burns inital cap hit as $6M-7M.

I'm glad you're not a cap manager, because you would suck at your job if Burns+Bozeman=30M in year one of a deal. Thank God the Panthers have smarter cap people than you.

We've won 1 game post Rhule. Could we win Sunday? Sure. Can we win 4 more after that? There's a good chance PJ turns back into a pumpkin and we collapse. Right now, I still think top 10 pick.

The formula is complicated. No, I don't think we'd get a 3rd though. It has to do with salary, playing time, post season awards, etc. That stuff isn't determined until the end of the following year before the draft. And if we sign a similar caliber player, it will offset the comp pick. If Baker is on a new team and is a pro bowler next year, then we might get a 3rd. There is also a limited number of comp picks each year league wide.

Incredible article. And at this point, any benefit of the doubt I gave Rhule, was clearly too much. Though I kinda realized that after the first few games of the year, but this just makes it clear that not only was he in over his head, but was entirely clueless and self defeating.

I've been saying this for a while. Defense is good enough. O line is great now. We have some weapons. We still need some pieces - DE/Edge, MLB, DT, TE, WR maybe RB, but overall we can drop a QB in and be competitive. Many of these can be fixed in this upcoming draft if they hit on the 2nds. We could be playoff competitive in 2024 with the right QB and HC.

Who is Henry Anderson? Can we get a 1st for him?

I think that's how most football games are won...

TLDR but the title. Short answer, no. Long answer, see the short answer.

I don't think I understand this thread.

I'm fine with 2 firsts for Burns if one of them is top 15 in 2023.
