He's 73. This wasn't a long-term hire. This was a huge splash hire and the huge splash was the massive poo landing in the toilet.
-
Not someone who is 73 years old and who had never coached college football. I wanted Mack Brown gone because the game had passed him by and we fire him to hire someone the same age. Not a QB who barely did anything at South Alabama.

You're just failing to cope with how atrocious this roster looks. How many players do we have that would be starting or getting significant PT on most other power conference teams? Hell, Jordan Shipp might be the whole list. And it's not because the cupboard was left bare. Belichick and crew used the portal to completely reshape the roster in their vision and much like his moves as GM with the Pats the result is trash.
-
The talent level on this roster is late stage John Bunting level atrocious. Think about if we'd used that Belichick money on NIL budget. That's where college football is right now. It's about how much you can offer a prospect this year then we'll talk again next year.

Not to early to talk 2026 Hall of Fame nominees

I think Smitty is a HOFer he's just such an asshole that I can't get myself to care if he gets in or not. Let that poor bastard in Baltimore take a lap every year he doesn't get in. LOL -
He's terrible. He's less terrible when you're relying on him to be the worst player on the field and you can try to compensate for that. He's more terrible when you're relying on him to be a key component of your LB corps.
-
3 or 4 years? Hell, Belichick will be old enough to possibly win a Presidential election by that point.

Is Mike Jack already the 2nd best trade in Panthers history?
LinvilleGorge replied to Basbear's topic in Carolina Panthers
Hell, we've been so bad at trading for players I'm honestly trying to remember another positive one. -
Banging the opposing coach's smoke show daughter and revealing it during game week is top notch trolling.
-
Aaaaaaand... the Giants are benching Russell Wilson for their rookie. If that sorry ass goal line series is the end of Wilson's career that's actually gonna be pretty sad because that was some of the hottest trash I've ever seen.

What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?
LinvilleGorge replied to CanadianCat's topic in Carolina Panthers
Hell if I know I'm just trying to come up with excuses for them. LOL -

LinvilleGorge replied to CanadianCat's topic in Carolina Panthers
I think the majority did. I don't know how the Jags deluded themselves. Might've been a bit of "hometown kid" bias at play with him being a Florida kid (albeit Miami area) but having gotten his collegiate start at Jacksonville State . -

Yeah, it really seems like they made that move legitimately expecting him to be a two way player which is just crazy. You just can't be a two way player in the modern NFL. The obvious approach with Hunter was to have him focus on being a CB first and basically motivate him by telling him that the better you play on defense and the more comfortable you are on the field there, the more comfortable we're going to be putting more on your plate by carving out a bigger piece for you on offense but likely always limiting that to maybe 10-12 snaps a game at most on offense. Starting him out primarily at WR was just insane. At least they quickly saw that and adjusted but they really blew it with the off-season/preseason approach and it's causing Hunter to play catch up. -
Yeah, Moehrig in likely passing situations as a LB/DB hybrid role seems like a better approach then Rozeboom/Wallace.
-
This. The Micah Parsons situation is an anomaly and it takes a moron with a gigantic ego like Jerry Jones to pull it off. The vast majority of these superstar/organization showdowns end up with a massive extension getting inked after a bunch of talking and posturing during the negotiation process with everyone trying to get the best deal from their perspective that they can and then everyone making up in the end - basically the Lamar contract situation. That's the normal process of how those situations play out and why everyone just assumed the Parsons situation would follow the same path but then Jerruh gonna Jerruh. LOL

It looks like the Jags are finally coming around to this reality. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/jacksonville-jaguars/news/travis-hunter-snap-count-stats-alarming-jaguars-fans/e8b5752c40513c1688536a65 After primarily playing on offense against us week one, he's playing more and more defense and less and less offense ever since. The problem is that the Jags spent all off-season and preseason prepping him as a two way player that he wasn't ready to do either going into the season. They really fuged this up. I think he'll catch on over the course of the season but they are probably gonna throw away the first half of this rookie season trying to put too much on a rookie. -
Yeah, The Ravens' offense was stalling out while the Lions' offense was humming. The Henry fumble sealed their fate but I didn't like their chances regardless. But either way, Derrick Henry 4th quarter fumbles have cost them one game and cost them and an opportunity in another. That Bills game was over until his fumble gave them new life and his fumble last night made their chances go from "not good but maybe" to "we need a miracle".
-
Forget the money we paid Moehrig that I warned was a mistake, this might be our best pair of safeties.
-
To be clear, I don't disagree. It's just exasperated when it's Renfrow due to his lack of height, reach, and leaping ability. Bryce usually misses high deep and that's an issue when you're Renfrow. Less of an issue if you're T-Mac.
-
Why go for 2 here?
-
People were ready to write the Lions off when they lost to GB in week one but the Packers' D really is just that good. People are now dunking on the Packers for losing to the Browns but the D held them to barely over 200 yards and 13 points, their offense just no-showed.
-
Henry has to be beside himself. Crucial late 4th round fumbles in both their losses. Hell, they had that Buffalo game won until his fumble gave them life.
-
It comes down to pressuring him. If you can force him off his spot he struggles. If you let him get set and deliver he can carve you up.
-
Wow. They go for it and get it. That was a damn DIME from Goff.
-
Decision time coming up. Do you go for it on 4th and 2ish from midfield or do you punt and play D? The way my D is playing, I'm gonna come out here and try to get them to jump and then punt unless they give me a defensive look that I really like.
