BIGH2001

All this rationalizing bad QB play now. Let’s just hope that we aren’t losing 21-3 when the season starts. Unfortunately, I haven’t seen much from Rhule or Tepper to make me confident that they have any idea what they’re doing.

Here comes the greedy NFL owner power play. Next step: an outright threat to move with at least 3 cities mentioned as possible destinations.

Nah, I started watching when Paul Maurice was the coach. Remember the triple overtime game in the Finals against Detroit and the disappointment after we lost that one. Anyway, no need to prove anything to you. Maybe next year they'll come back with a better roster and some guys who can score against decent goalies.

The playoff game was in 09. My bad. The 08 Panthers. Actually, come to think of it I was a fan before 01. I watched the Canes when they played at the Greensboro Coliseum. The truth hurts sometimes. This team played like losers this series and I'm calling it for what it is.

Sorry to hurt your feelings with the truth. This team was disappointing trash this series. I've been a Canes fan since 01.

A shut out would be a fitting ending to this shitshow. Lots of work to do in the offseason if we want to be a real team. Need someone that knows how to score a goal for fug's sake.

another pathetic power play that looks like 5 on 5

You guys shitting on me are stupid AF. This team blows. I hate teams that get to the playoffs with high expectations and then get blown out. Like the 09 Panthers. No excuse for this kind of pathetic showing.

This team is so inept. They can't even get control of the fuging puck. They are playing like losers and deserve to go home.

No chance to win the cup with this roster. They need to slash about 25% of the dead weight on the roster and upgrade with competent players to have a chance. They are good enough to make the playoffs and win a series, maybe two. But when they run into a real team they fold up fast.

This team is poo. Total horseshit performance. Can't even score a fuging goal.

I knew we would lose this series when we struggled against Nashville. There’s virtually no chance they beat the lighting and it could be a sweep now that they lost game 1.

Can’t even get the goalie off the ice

This team sucks

Time for Borrego to go. The team totally gave up and it’s on his watch.

Tillman was 100 years old that season. Way past his prime.

Our last super bowl team featured Cortland Finnegan and Robert McClain at DB, along with Norman. In 2003, our CBs were Terry Cousin and Reggie Howard. The common denominator in those years was that we had a dominant front 7. You can hide a crappy secondary all day if you can pressure the QB. Building a team from the outside in is a recipe for failure. Literally, you can patch together a competent secondary by picking up guys from trash heap after the last round of training camp cuts.

He could be a top notch CB (though I doubt it). Even if he is, it ain't gonna make a damn bit of difference when the opposing offense gets to start on the 50 yard line every possession because we can't move the ball. It doesn't help the team get better at a more important position of need. Total waste to draft a CB this high when there are more foundational needs on this team.

Will probably lead the league in PI calls.

Based on our need to field a competent offensive line to protect our average at best QB. Based on the high likelihood that this guy is a bust. This is a top 10 pick, not pick 30 for a team coming off a deep playoff run. CBs aren't taking anyone to the super bowl. Football games are won in the trenches and with a star QB play. Something we don't seem to understand based on our complete aversion to fielding an O-line that is worth a poo. The one year or two that we have done it in the last decade it was merely by chance.

Top notch? Lol. This is quite possibly the dumbest first round pick in franchise history not named Biakabutuka or Vernon Butler.

As Darnold gets sacked 100 times a game and throws a lot of interceptions. At least Horn will be on the field a lot.

A legit secondary doesn't win anything. Elite lines and elite QBs do. The rest of it is window dressing. CB is a complimentary pick for a team that is already loaded and needs a push to take the next step. It should never be a #8 pick for team that is rebuilding. What a total waste.

Sadly this sounds very accurate. Down 3 scores, Horn and Donte Jackson compete at the end of the game for who can pick up the dumbest penalty, likely after the whistle.

Sam Darnold is our starting QB. Behind a terrible offensive line.
