We beat them with their third string QB and without one of the best WRs in football when we were all hopped up on Cams return. It was fool's gold and just cost us draft position.

This is starting to feel like another wildcard round blowout in the making. Cardinals better get something going. Soon.

This is about the type of bum hire I expect. Someone with a "name". Probably an ex-HC. But a bum with name and limited actual opportunities available for him.

Unless you're either underqualified or already have one foot out the door toward retirement anyway.

He probably would. I think he's due $24M next year. If he was released I highly doubt he'd get $24M in FA. You ready to pay the equivalent of Mahomes money for Jimmy G once you factor in Darnold's dead money?

Sad, but true.

Yeah it was. I mean, you're in a situation where about the only way you can lose that game is by turnovers and he tries to force a ball on 3rd and long and badly overthrows it right into the waiting hands of a defender setting them up in scoring range. Just inexcusable. I hate to use a Job Fox euphemism here, but in that situation a punt is not a bad play.

I think it'll be someone like Jimmy G. If the Browns want to move Baker I think he's have enough sway and options available to steer his way clear of this dumpster fire.

Unfortunately, this seems by far the most likely scenario. Except I think Fitts and Rhule are going to eat up a significant chunk of that cap space with desperation quick fix bandaid solutions. If their hands aren't tied on trading future picks that's gonna happen too.

I predicted weeks ago that we'd end up with Jimmy G at QB next season and some washed up retread "name" at OC like Jason Garrett who already has one foot out the door and will use Tepper for what amounts to a severance check on his way to retirement from coaching.

When Tepper boastfully proclaimed that he wouldn't be settling for mediocrity, dumb old me just assumed that he was shooting for the top not the bottom. Four years into the Tepper era experiencing four straight losing seasons and three straight seasons managing only five meager wins, here I sit kinda longing for mediocrity again. The Panthers were always a mediocre franchise, but we DID have occasional success. Any hint of fleeting success seems too far distant to imagine currently.

Dak is like Romo never retired. They're practically the same player. Pile up stats against bad opponents, struggle against better opponents, choke in the playoffs.

Colbert has already said he's staying onboard through this year's draft anyway

Cool. Another year of Darnold. 6-11 next year. Another top 10 but not quite top 5 pick.

As frustrated as I've been as a fan, I can't ever imagine actually throwing things at players. Ours or opposing. Just trash ass people.

They've made his style of safety play essentially illegal. Without being able to lay the hammer he'd be a liability. Grant and Minter made a nice pair of complimentary safeties. We really could use a legit over the top FA to free up Chinn to work underneath. Then again, this roster could use a LOT.

And Mike Minter would be a liability in today's game. Deon Grant is the only decent true FS we've ever had and we didn't even bother signing him to a second contract.

I know I'm checked out because I honestly don't care about FA. Or the draft for that matter. It just feels like Tepper has ran this franchise completely into the ground.

A lot to very little.

They're just taking inspiration from their QB. They watch him throw trash all game long and think that's just what a Cowboy is supposed to do.

He just doesn't get it. It's probably why he couldn't beat any actually good teams in college either.

One competitive football game all weekend and even that game really didn't feel anywhere as close as the scoreboard reflected.

It's just selfishness. I'm a hiker. I'm a trout fisherman. I'm a mountain biker. I'm a Jeeper. There are TONS of trails for hikers. Don't fight the other users for the few trails available to them. There's way more MTB trails available than Jeep trails. Don't fight the other users for the few trails available to them. Hell, even up at Brown Mountain. The dirtbikers and ATV riders get all pissy about the Jeeps on trail 1. Guys, y'all have an entire mountain of trail system available to you. The Jeeps have THIS trail. Deal with it. I was a chapter president of Trout Unlimited and told them to go fug themselves forever over Tellico. There were plans in place to address erosion concerns TU wanted to hear none of it. They wanted it shutdown. Period. Nothing less. fug TU for that. Forever. They shutdown the last legit hardcore public Jeep trail system on the entire east coast. I used to tell mountain bikers in CO to chill with trying to boot the dirtbikes. I get it, they're annoying when you're hiking or biking. Whatever. There's WAY more trails available for hiking and mountain biking than there is for dirtbiking. If you really don't want to deal with them simply avoid those trails. This is what you have to understand - you're an ally of convenience at the moment. The hikers don't want you there either. You're annoying to them too. You're just less annoying than the dirtbikes. Get the dirtbikes banned and they'll come for your access next.

It's pick your poison vs. KC. You better come ready and able to put up some pretty serious points yourself.

Well, the Steelers hung tough for a little while. They're just outgunned by a pretty wide margin tonight.
