  1. Again, I get it from a fans perspective. I'm just looking at it from the Morgan/Canales perspective. If we end up with a top 3 pick looking like we currently look they're gone. If we end up with a top 10ish pick but showing some type of hope they might have a chance. These constant resets aren't working. If you fire this current crew while keeping them basically saddled to the Bryce experiment and the DC that you told them they were retaining them you didn't really even give it a chance. Do I think that Morgan/Canales are the answer? I'm very doubtful. But I also realize that no one with other options is coming to Carolina so we're looking at replacing them with similar level candidates and just praying that a scratch off lottery ticket hits. At some point you have to at least start convincing the front office/coaching talent pool that they're going to get a fair shake in Carolina and right now I think there's the opposite feeling out there and for good reason.
  2. That's why I'd bench Bryce sooner rather than later. There are still several weeks until the trade deadline. There's plenty of time to get a good look at Dalton. If he's looking like ass after 2-3 games at that point I think you have to seriously shop around.
  3. That's not what I'm saying. I'm not saying to not draft a QB next year. I'm saying that if you're Canales and Morgan first thing's first, you gotta GET to next year. I think they're gonna have to do something to make a move for a bandaid QB approach if they're gonna make it to next year.
  4. The size thing is only the half of it. The arm talent issue is every bit as limiting as the size issue. Honestly, outside of having decent mobility Bryce is significantly subpar in every other physical talent category.
  5. The offensive or defensive minded HC is like the 3-4 or 4-3 argument. Both approaches have proven to work and both approaches have failed miserably when poorly implemented. I do think Tepper leans heavily offense though and given the NFL's push toward rule changes that favor the offense that's the way I personally lean too. I just think the NFL is going to keep tweaking the rules to try to encourage more offense because that's what drives viewership so if that's the case I do think all else being equal you're better off with an offensive minded focus.
  6. From a fan perspective? Yeah. From the Canales/Morgan perspective? You gotta still be employed by then. I'm not sure Bryce/Dalton/Hooker gets that done. Tepper wants offense. If you bring in a vet who puts up yards and points but buries you with turnovers you've at least demonstrated that you can make your offense work with an NFL caliber QB. This current embarrassment of a poo show probably leads to another full on reset with the talent pool of people willing to come work for Tepper shrinking increasingly smaller. I mean, someone is always going to sign up for that payday but I think we're to the point that our wish lists have to start where everyone else's ends because anyone with other options is choosing the other option. That's why the thought of another reset just isn't very exciting to me. It's the front office/coaching staff equivalent of having to build a roster out of UDFAs and off the couch FAs. It's almost certainly gonna be a disaster.
  7. They might as well. They spent a lick on them and they're ass so give him a shot in real action. It'll at least get them press coverage for a minute which I honestly think was the primary driver of that pick to begin with.
  8. Go get me Jameis or Howell. Get me a guy who has proven he can put up numbers. Forget the turnovers, we just need to see if Canales can field an offense that can produce given a QB with NFL tools. The Bryce question feels answered. Now we need to answer the Canales question. The reality is that Shedeur has looked like ass except against our camp bodies - the camp bodies of one of if not the worst team in the league. He looked like ass against our primary backups. He didn't do anything until we were playing Amazon warehouse workers.
  9. Who handpicked him to be the next one in the club. It seemed very obvious that not matter what they were going to force JR to sell the Panthers to Tepper.
  10. There was no interference there. There was hand fighting and the receiver went down to try to make a play on the ball. Would've been a tough catch but one he would probably say he should've made.
  11. In that situation I doubt Bryce could've pushed the ball much more than 30 yards down the field.
  12. You have got to be kidding me. Some of these catches the Cowboys receivers have made tonight are just insane.
  13. Really didn't understand that last play from GB. Your odds of scoring from 40 yards out slim to none. I would've just been trying to get 8-10 yards to turn a 53 yarder into a 43 yarder. He made it easily anyway so it doesn't matter. To OT we go.
  14. Wow. Did GB just think they had the game won? That was the most pathetic defensive effort I've seen in a long time. WOW.
  15. The look on Dak's face starting to warm up says the boys are cooked. That face screamed "well fug".
  16. There are no trap games for bad teams. We didn't overlook the Patriots. We weren't looking past the Patriots. We got our ass kicked because we sucked. It looks like we kicked the Falcons ass because we were a trap game for them.
  17. Yeah, all I wanted from him this year was a definitive answer. Either clearly be the guy or clearly not be the guy. Well, he's clearly not the guy. But there's still some folks hanging on. Bless their hearts.
  18. Jordan Love can do anything that Brett Favre could do? Calm down Collinsworth. LOL
  19. Calling any game a "trap game" for the Panthers who are the losingest team in the league since Tepper bought them is embarrassing. Bad teams don't have trap games. That's not a thing that exists.
  20. Jesus Christ. What an embarrassing post.
  21. I honestly think he's only hated because of the cap choking contract. You can't afford to pay borderline top 10 QBs like franchise QBs. It kills your ability to put the type of team around them they need to win consistently. Niners fans will start hating Purdy soon as the impact of his contract start kicking in on the roster.
  22. He's basically Russell Wilson back when Wilson was actually good. Chucks up a bunch of rainbow balls that somehow get caught. He's what Russ would've been if he wasn't in a perfect situation. We've seen what Russ is in subpar situations. Oh wee mayne.
  23. I did not anticipate this, but this GB/Dallas game is actually a really good football game.
  24. Meh, we would've found a way to fug that up too. I'm glad he didn't end up here.
