I always thought he sucked. But was lucky as hell. Used all the luck up it looks like.

Father Time, with some Pop Star Jet Set ultra wealthy lifestyle help him along. 3 or 4 years ago, no one had an answer for Kelce. Playoff teams couldn’t cover him. And since then it seems he has coasted more in the regular season, and still turned it on in crunch time. I think he could still do that but do they have enough on offense to make it that far?

They are the least of Your worries, people on the team want to win. You have to allow for a winning culture to have an opportunity, if you are the person responsible for creating it. Edit: And I say this as a person who wants no part of Bryce Young going forward.

Pretty fair assessment overall. I can’t say a lot since I didn’t watch but going by the comments I am betting he (Canales) was very conservative and a large reason would be to prevent Bryce giving it away half the day.

Meaning he wasn’t cut. No big deal to me, they remember things in a way that helps them compete. He should have stayed above the public ‘he said she said’ type situation he invited with those comments. But, no big deal in the big picture.

It seems like Mayfield rehabbed his image in that time in LA and I thought Wilks allowed that to happen. Who knows though.

Got me there. Great to see the defense forcing mistakes. Or, taking advantage of them. I didn’t get to see it.

I didn’t see the game but I caught a little on the radio. I saw that 0 though lol. I love watching a good defense, and miss us having a good one. This was great. PS: I think T Mac’s time will come. The situational and strategic flow of the game goes where it goes. Today it went elsewhere.

You can win with that if you have a strong defense. You can’t play that way when you spot the other team a TD or two. Think they would let us play the Falcons every week?

That’s right. And if we do not cheer and enthusiastically support their participation trophy level losing efforts then we are bad fans.

If they run too fast they will take themselves out of range. It’s a challenge.

I watch when I expect a loss. Which is basically every game for the last 3 seasons. I did quit watching most games live. That’s an NFL thing though not so much Panthers. But I absolutely will no longer block out Sunday afternoon for them after Young lived down to my expectations. Just so pissed off at the organization over making us horrible for years.

I think when Coker comes back you might see a mini resurgence. This week it is the Falcons’ game to lose.

I never looked at 3rd round prospects that year.Used to, but man it is time consuming. But lots of people knew it, I remember the draft night reaction. And the org took him because? They didn’t see it? I looked at the QBs in 2023 because of the magnitude of the decision and because it was a lock we were taking QB. Well I saw it probably inside of a half hour of clips. Significant issues. Plenty of people saw it too. But the fuging team didn’t? The thing with everyone bagging on the scouts… I don’t think they picked Bryce, I don’t think they picked DJ Johnson. I don’t know what they do anymore. Gatekeep who gets past them to the real decision makers?

An issue might be are the players they playing with and against, good enough to support that kind of development. But the NFL needs a minor league of some kind. The talent coming up isn’t really playing the NFL game and the NFL has bent towards the college game. For a while now.

That’s basically the old baseball cliche, we can lose 100 games without you.

One last thing, they could have brought Lock in this year, right? Didn’t for some reason. I know that when Canales got here they talked to him and he had committed elsewhere. But I didn’t see that they talked to him this year. That means something, but who knows what. I’d like to see a process of selection Re QB that didn’t include Bryce in whatever considerations get considered. What would we do without him murking up the waters.

It seems so simple.

Lol I was trying to say I was close to bailing. English is a funny language sometimes.

They talking about being 1-15 and their issue isn’t that they were getting their asses kicked, and earned that record, I didn’t hear anything about that - they criticize the fans for making them feel bad. The fans? Where is your pride? And you are making serious bank going 1-15.

I am trying to remember if OJ and the Bills did anything in his 2000 yard rushing season. Looked it up. Nope. That was a 14 game season no one has really gotten his YPG average and this list of 2000 yd guys is freaking impressive. But they didn’t win poo.

That is a fairly frequent byproduct of teams run by offensive minds. I guess I’m profiling or something but that is my experience. You are taking that risk. All this fancy offense wins SBs sometimes but you look at Marino, Fouts, guys like that. Plenty didn’t. Great QBs but no championships.

Seems like there are two main perspectives weighing in. Watching, and having to play/compete against him. If you have to play against him Sunday, what does it matter that he did violence on Thursday? Or if he isn’t a suitable role model…. I watched NFL when Don Merideth QB’d the Cowboys. Way before MNF. Dan Reeves I think was a backup. I saw ‘The Heidi Game’ live on my little B&W 13” TV when I was a kid. No kidding. And you know, much more. I can’t say I have really seen anyone like Smitty. I love those other 3 too. There isn’t another Cam, I think there are other maybe Peps - athletic freaks with size and speed. And there have been probably a couple of Lukes or close. Heady super talented and motivated defensive QBs - which Luke was. But I love that guy, He is HOF in my book. There were guys that were similar to Smitty I thought Andre Rison had some of it but he flamed out. There are others that I maybe am not recalling. But Smitty took stuff to a new level. Like when he came back to BOA as a Raven. He just destroyed people. Sorry for the long winded drunk post.

People aren’t wrong on posters here having very strong prospect evaluation skills. At the same time people went nuts for Bryce Young. Okay but anyhow we look at overall stuff and what impresses me is the people that know the deeper prospects. I used to spend time studying and they’d trade the pick. After a while I said screw it not putting my time into that. People here immediately bitched about DJ Johnson for instance. 3rd round I think. And they were freaking right. I’m not sure I’d have figured that out. Other examples exist.

Tua? Hell no. I think that would do it, the absolute last straw for me. Close now.
