Could we have a defensive breakdown and a good offensive day? Yes we could. Who knows what to expect from this team, but generally when you think about why we have lost games, it has been underperforming on offense more times than in the other phases. People should be shining the light on them. They are the unit that has another step to take. This game will probably hinge on them taking it or stumbling over it.

Let’s just keep the guy healthy, he will grow right into those kind of shoes. Looking at our history, I would say he is a clear notch above DJ Moore. Which is exciting to think about.

I gotta point out Gettleman’s first draft where he did in fact fix some poo that had been plaguing the DL for years. Clueless on the OL though.

Should have been 6 things. Panthers pass pro. I think they are gonna have to throw to get NO out of the box and if they can’t it won’t be pretty. Besides Horn falling down my basic memory from the last game is running the ball into a pile of Saints and getting very little. If we find ourselves there again we need to counter.

Thought that was pretty fair and fairly thorough.

We are something like 1-8 or 1-9 with the Bucs the last few years. Can’t have a rivalry with that kind of relationship. Not much different with the other teams.

The downfield stuff has been an issue since his first game in 2023. Anyway seeing how they react to two plays that got behind the defense last week will be something to look for. Will they respect it or force him to prove it?

I don’t think Canales is a serious contender now. Vrabel is it. 4-13 last year, he comes in they are 11-2. I don’t see anyone beating that.

I understood it. A lot of people didn’t. Lost patience and sight of the reality, which was we were only 3 points down for all those three and outs. If you put it in Bryce’s hands and he makes a mistake we are down two scores quick. To paraphrase Greg Cosell: the way you have to play with Bryce Young. This 4 game stretch is gonna be interesting. Up until three games ago we had bad Bryce more often than good Bryce. Then he plays 2 of his 3 best ever games and that’s it? No more bad Bryce? Or what is it gonna be?

Okay so… it is the year before that needs to be Ohio State? Because there will be a new champ in late January. Before the Super Bowl. I am confused. I looked back.. SB 38 was played Feb 1 2004. Basically the 2003 NFL season. The NCAAF champs for the 2003 season were … I am seeing LSU - winners of the Sugar Bowl played on Jan 4 2004. Strange logic.

You are probably right. My eyes are not so good anymore and I saw it on a phone and something seemed weird about it - but I couldn’t really get zeroed in to Baker to make sure it was him - it did look a little funky. then I saw this Bowles clip and thought who knows what you might see…

I think Ohio State needs to win the playoff in the same year as the Super Bowl. ?

Pretty sure Mayfield came out and blamed Bowles and called for his firing. I saw a clip. It was hard to believe my eyes it was so crazy. I don’t think I have ever heard a player calling for the coach to be fired in the post game podium visit. College, pro, whatever.

Last time he stuck with the run, very stubbornly, and people were pissed off. We thought, or some of us thought, he did not want it in Bryce’s hands until it absolutely had to be. Like after we went down 10 late. The players need to execute because I don’t think he will do that again if it is just running into a wall. Yeah I am saying it will be on the players more than whatever the strategy is.

I bet Vegas.

I don’t think he is a good candidate to get for a bargain any more. That was draft time and we probably should have done something to push the current starter, for once. But I understand the reluctance to get involved in a potential circus.

Lol caught one with a treble hook. Where is my hook remover? You can’t say silver spoon path to the NFL. Sports parents. Didn’t have to beat anyone out here in Carolina. To this day. Don’t point that poo out to anybody though because it messes with their safe space.

Worse than that you shouldn’t have a job. If you do they are looking for a way out. Seriously, This season I see three games. Dallas Atlanta LA Rams. There are 10 other games of not so great. Why don’t people see this?

We did pretty good with next man up last week.

I find it shameful that Renfro came back to play and wanted it to be with us and he has been nothinged/nobodied all season. He knows how to get open.

George Washingstan said father, I cannot tell a lie. I picked my stats out of a cherry tree. Or something like that.

That, and the stans everywhere else ban you when you don’t worship BY9.

He was great for Rock Hill. This is rich woman vanity hobby stuff. Dave is happy she is out of his (imaginary) hair while he makes Panthers decisions.

They’re not going after any QBs. Little man is ‘in’.

I guess we fans are allowed to look forward past this week’s game. Players better not be or it might not matter much.
