Hopefully we kick ass and I'm enjoying a delicious meal of crow.

Yeah, I didn't mind trying to get our rookie QB a good RB to lean on but my Eagles fan buddy told me that Sanders wasn't all that, it was more about that OL than it was about him. Sure looks like he was right so far. ImSo far, Sanders looked meh and the Eagles have ran wild without him.

I'll say 31-17 Saints to be on the record.

Based on what exactly? He just led his team back from a 21-3 deficit slinging fireball dimes under heavy pressure. What more do you want?

Crazy seems to run in the Jones family. I think his brother Jon is a legit sociopath.

No clue what to expect but I'd be lying if I said my expectations are high. Hoping to be pleasantly surprised.

That's why I want to see how this roster progresses this year. I need to see progression to not be ready to move on from Fitts.

A lot of people were talking about this being a weak WR class but they were just looking at the top of the class. If you had a top 10 pick and wanted a WR you're not liking the class. But I was always pounding the table for the 2nd-5th round talent in this class. That was always the strength of this WR class - the depth of talent in the mid-rounds. Too many folks get caught up on only looking at the hyped "stars".

I really liked the mid-round talent in this draft class, period.

People want to believe in Fitts so badly but I'm just not seeing a whole lot to hang that hat on right now.

It's what the Chargers have done for years. Fail to win despite quality QB play. For the majority of my adult life they've either had Brees, Rivers, or Herbert at QB yet barely have any playoff wins to speak of. That's pretty embarrassing.

Because he couldn't throw. He improved leaps and bounds as a QB at OU under Lincoln Riley.

He wasn't good at Bama. It was Tua that got Saban to finally break out of his old school three yards and a loud of dust offense and join the modern offensive game.

Hurts was not good at Bama and that's why he got benched for Tua and transferred to Oklahoma where he blossomed.

Without signs of progress I'm ready to move on from Fitts. The guy was brought here to be Rhule's babysitter. While is gone. If we're not progression as a team get rid of the babysitter and go find a real GM.

You just have to ignore the fans trying to make sweeping conclusions about a guy being a bust after a game or two. Gantt is a professional. He needs to be better and not act like a triggered Huddler because a lot of fans are tired of this organization's losing ways and choose to vent.

It really is the point though. The only point of the regular season is to get to the postseason. You can keep twisting in the wind if you want but the math is the math and the math says if we lose tomorrow night there's a near 90% chance that it's another futile season in the Panthers' record book.

Holy poo, that was one wild fourth down conversion.

Broncos RT was doing it today too.

Since 1990, 11.5% of teams starting 0-2 make the playoffs. You might not like it, but that's the reality.

The odds say he's wrong. Sure, there's always examples of outliers that defied the odds but the odds are the odds.

I wonder how much Darin Gantt sold his integrity to Tepper for?

That might be game. I'm not sure if the Pats could score two TDs in under 9 minutes if the opposing D left the stadium.

He's faster than anyone on the Pats' offense.

Tua's deep ball sucks. No way to sugarcoat it. They're all floaty and usually short.
