Mr Mojo Risin

The only problem now is that next year...going to be VERY hard to make the playoffs again. We play a lot of really good teams

I mean to be fair...didn't we lead the league in having the most oline combinations on the year? After all that's where all of our $$ is tied up and if that part of your team is in that much of disarray it'd be awful hard to live up to its full potential. Not trying to make excuses, just saying.

Bryce will definitely be here next year and possibly the year after unless he does some Deshaun "Diddy" Watson type of stuff. I think #1 priority is getting some true competition for Bryce. And not some random 6th round draft pick or UDFA. Some sort of meaningful draft pick or FA candidate. That has to happen this offseason.

Ah my mistake had it sorted by the wrong filter. It lists 9 flags. It isn't good but there are some guys around his caliber that also have a lot of penalties this season. I just think that Horn has had a few back breakers in there which makes it seem a lot worse than it truly is

Pat Surtain also has 9 penalties Defensive Pass Interference (5), Illegal Contact (2), Defensive Offside (1), Defensive Holding (1) for 109 yards Jaycee Horn has 9 penalties but according to that link it only says 7 for 49 yards but they list 9? Defensive Pass Interference (4), Defensive Holding (3), Illegal Use of Hands (1), Face Mask (1) Not all that bad when compared to some of his peers although the timing of his penalties have been about as bad as they could have been.

I'll admit winning the division with a 9-8 record isn't the greatest feeling in the world but its worlds better than another 5 win season. We are actually watching meaningful football during the last week of the season. That's all you could have asked for as a fan at the beginning of the year. And if this nucleus of players and coaches are going to turn the corner together then winning and getting this experience is crucial.

Not sure how Christensen is going to rebound. If this team learned anything this year it's that Oline depth is a premium. Ickey needs to be locked up long term. Wouldn't mind Yosh coming off the bench for another year then sliding him in at RT once T mo is released or retires

Ekwonu is out? Why? Yikes.

Yea i mean even the best corners get beat from time to time. Jaycee when healthy has never been able to play with a good pass rush. That's gotta be one of the top priorities next year

It hasn't always been pretty but it definitely feels good to be able to watch meaningful Panthers games in December. Merry Xmas yall and let's beat the Taints!!!!!

He's been pretty much what he's been since he entered the NFL. They overpaid him to play out of position essentially. He has still matched around his average production from previous years but you don't pay FAs to come in and be better than what they've shown. Definitely overpaid but it is what it is hopefully he can make some plays down the stretch and we'll all feel a little better about it

Living in Indiana I would love to beat the Bears, but with the way this team has performed the last several years I'd just be glad to be there man.

I'm happy we're winning games and Bryce has contributed in some of them and hopefully is not going to be an all-time bust for us. Every young QB is different. Some hit the ground running, some look like poo and improve later or in different scenarios and some guys never get it. I think we're at the point where we don't need to do anything drastic at the QB spot like we did to get Young in the first place. I think we DEFINITELY need to do what others have mentioned. Sign a QB that can play in case Young has another episode of trash football player and draft a Young guy (no pun) on day 2 or 3 to sit and learn or play later on if we implode with Young. We have to have a real life contingency plan next season. That can't be ignored again.

Yea that was probably one of my favorite moments from yesterday. Williams wanted no part of Ransom after that. Sent his ass to the sidelines lol

From week to week you never know what you're going to get with this team but you can't argue they've put together some damn good performances this year. We aren't close to perfect but we definitely will be making teams think twice before playing us

Putting their best pass rusher on our most inexperienced olineman. Thats rough.

Lol that Rb wants absolutely nothing more to do with Ransom. Really hope he turns out to be a good safety for us he can absolutely lay the wood

MIKE JACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And spending prime draft capital on one unless it's going to be a home run type of player. In regards to the topic I think Canales has shown enough to get at least another year. If we can't improve to be a more consistent offense next season then I think we clean house after that. I think we've seen enough to know what we have with Bryce and its been obvious for some time he has been holding this team hostage to a certain degree. He isn't always the issue but more often than not he is the reason for the inconsistencies on offense, and he really isn't someone who has been able to elevate the play of others around him which is absolutely what you need to be able to win consistently in today's league. I don't think Bryce will be off the team next year but we have to bring in some legit competition for QB1. That has to happen, we simply cannot go into next year with Bryce being the defacto QB1 again.

Cam needed an opportunity to prove that. The people that continue to parrot that he couldn't throw the ball anymore because he had Damiere Byrd and Nkeal Harry as his starting WRs in New England yet he still had 7.2 YPA that year with a 66% completion on 368 attempts. He still had 21 Tds and over 3k yards of offense. New England had the most COVID opt outs of any other team that year ontop of Newton dealing with a bout of it himself. Even if Cam wasn't as "good" as prime Cam he still was a hell of a lot better than anything we've brought in since he's left. This Franchise absolutely has deserved everything it has gone through with the way he was discarded. 1000000000%.

Sucks because defense has played with amazing effort all night. What a rough game for the offense.

We've been a better 2nd half team than 1st half team for what its worth. The 2nd quarter we are always just so god damn bad.

3 INTS, 3 points. Insane.

Hopefully we come out aggressive and dont play the "play not to lose" type of football. We have to be able to sustain more than just our opening drive to limit their offenses chances. Easier said than done though. I'm excited and also nervous. Don't want to see us get blown out on National TV like we have so often in the past. But at least we're in a position to have an exciting game like this. We would have killed to be in this position the last few years

I dont think this is going to be a defensive, low scoring game. We're going to have to score some points to keep it close. I think they will move the ball with ease between the 20s our defense will have to come up big in the red zone to have a chance at stopping their offense.
