Honestly, I disagree strongly. If we turned the ball over 3 times there's zero chance we'd score 17 points in three quarters. The Saints are getting their asses kicked because of three INTs including two pick sixes. They look terrible, yes. But nowhere near as inept as we do.

Getting Hopkins back really seems to have sparked this Cardinals offense.

The Saints look to have a real stud in Olave.

You know what is truly pathetic? Andy Dalton threw three first half INTs including two pick sixes and somehow still managed to look better than any QB currently on our roster while doing it.

ANOTHER pick six. And this one WAS Dalton's fault. Hat trick on INTs in the 1st half.

Oof. Tough break for Dalton. That pick six wasn't his fault.

This is a pleasantly surprising decent game here between two not very good teams on seemingly cursed Thursday Night Football. Did not expect this.

That looked like the more typical Andy Dalton.

Well, damn. Look at that. Andy Dalton dropping a deep ball dime.

Allen Iverson: "We talkin' 'bout PRACTICE?!"

Very good? We still talking about Shaq Thompson?

I honestly think he's very replaceable and that his contract is a significant liability. For the record, I never wanted him re-signed to begin with. I wanted to let him walk as a free agent and hopefully next a comp pick. He's simply a replacement level player. If you can sign him for a reasonable deal, go for it. If you're going to have to pay him like a top talent you let him walk. That's how smart teams manage their rosters.

I'd do backflips to get a 2nd. I'd be happy as a pig in poo to get a 3rd. I honestly think you're looking at a 4th or even a 5th might be the likely ceiling.

Consistently mediocre. Why this organization ever saw him as a successor to Luke and/or TD and paid him as such has always baffled me. He's fine as a plug in starter but he's not a difference maker. He becomes a liability when he's paid like one of the top LBs in the league because he's simply not. He's not even close.

Good. I've been one of the few people saying Shaq absolutely needs to be shopped. I honestly don't even care what we get in return. We just need to unload that contract. He's a JAG and he's paid like a HOFer. I honestly don't know if he's even tradable.

He needs to stay the course and deliver that #1 overall pick to join the Pickles conversation.

At some point we gotta start drafting QBs and keep swinging until we hit.Weve had the worst QB play in the league for three years now and some of y'all are begging to draft DEs and poo.

Get TMJ and Shenault the PT.

Easy. When he's suited up and on the field he's gonna give it his all. When he has the clear mind of being able to think about it he makes smarter decisions. Call it the football version of post nut clarity.

We're probably gonna see Darnold again soon. He's gonna suck ass... again. Then we'll see Baker back once his ankle is healthy. I just hope it all ends up netting us the #1 overall pick. It's all we have left to cheer for.

Steve Smith would've ear holed the fug out of Von Miller and told him he'll keep doing it just to prove a point that he wasn't going to keep targeting our QB.

CMC's dad had a long productive NFL career but his career didn't truly takeoff until he landed in a well ran organization with an elite QB on the roster. I would honestly be flat out shocked if his family wasn't advising him to try to get out. You have your millions now. If you care about the game and your legacy within the game you need to get out. It's why I've also been saying that I honestly think there's a good chance that CMC has been missing all this time with nagging injuries based on a conscious decision to preserve his body. Why beat yourself to hell playing for an awful team when you've already got that bag in the form of your fat contract? Don't be shocked if CMC emerges elsewhere playing for a contender and suddenly is much more durable than he's been since getting paid.

Agreed.

Yeah, pretty much. Shaq is okay. He wouldn't be a problem if he was paid like a run of the mill starting LB but he's nowhere near the difference maker he's paid to be. I have no idea why the Panthers organization has always thought so highly of him as a player. I've never seen any signs of a special player.

I read it as him probably feeling like most of his dirt is already out there so fug it.
