Davidson Deac II

It hurts passing game more, but it hurts both. The defense has to adjust to cover a banged up secondary, which hurts other parts of the defense.

They had one long drive, the rest of their scores came after turnovers. The winning drive was a 26-yard drive that occurred after a blocked punt. Hurts had one run of 14 yards. And even when adding that one long run in, he averaged 3 ypc in that game. The defense shut down the Eagles running game. But no matter how well the defense plays, if the offense and special teams force it to constantly play with its back against the wall, the 85 bears would struggle. Of course, the defense certainly crapped out against other teams. The Vikings game was terrible. And by the end of the season, both the offense and defense had pretty much given up.

Our poorest performances irt run defense were generally against teams balanced teams, teams that can beat you with the run or pass. For example, Dallas abused us in the run game, while we shut down the Eagles run game, even though statistically last year, the Eagles were a better running team than the Cowgals. Of course, we still lost to the Eagles due to three picks from our offense. Fortunately, Cleveland may be one dimensional.

I would bet that a lot of head coaching hires get fired after 3-4 years. The NFL has a very high turnover/failure rate. For every Bill B or Sean Payton, there are 3 or 4 Matt Rhules or Bobby Petrino's, or George Seifert's.

Virtually every coach that gets hired in the NFL eventually gets fired, and the owners rarely admit they made a mistake.

Perhaps, but an awful human being.

I think Viserys is a good king, which in Westeros means being supplanted by a bad/vicious king. But it was a good episode.

Don't know if it was his first, but it was definitely his last for the Panthers. fwiw, the stretch from 1997 to 2000 was perhaps the worst stretch of drafts our history. Minter and Rucker were decent to good, Hayes was decent for a year or two, no one else worth mentioning in that entire four-year stretch. And of course, in 97 we drafted he whose name shall not be mentioned.

1998

I have my doubts, but we could be better this year.

If we hire a coach that would cut a guy simply because that coach wasn't the one who drafted him (ie his guy) then that coach probably sucks. And regardless of whether we get a new coach, Fitterer is still going to be here. Best I can remember, Ron Rivera gave Clausen a year, and we all knew he was bad by that point.

Other than both being drafted in the third round, I am not sure what one has to do with the other. Corral is going to miss his rookie season, Mond didn't. We still know nothing about Corral. So I would bet that he will still be here next year. Of course, there are caveats. If someone offers us a decent trade, or if he doesn't recover well from his injury.

I heard they were going to resign Cam and make him a DE/3-4 outside linebacker.

Almost hate to see Rambo get cut. Would have been cool to have Rambo on our team.

I strongly disagree. Corey was nothing compared to Philly B. In all seriousness, still one of my favorite Panther plays ever. (1) Cam Newton Goes Up Top To Corey Brown For BIG TD! | Cardinals vs. Panthers | NFL - YouTube

Positive me. He had 600 plus yards in a passing attack that was one of the worst in the league year. Negative me He was an integral part of one of the worst passing attacks in the league last year. We will see what happens I guess.

My guess is that at some point, we will be carrying three qb's (when Darnold gets back).

So who gets cut or traded now Marshall Shi (I hope not) Zylstra? Anderson maybe?

Spoiler I thought the confrontation between Daemon and Rhaenyra was well done.

Our qb situation as a whole has been bad since the second half of 2018.

Fair point, but Mond has actually played some, while next year will essentially be Corral's first full preseason, assuming he doesn't get injured again. From what I have seen watching the NFL all these years is that cutting a guy in Corral's situation in a new coaches first year doesn't normally happen.

Corral will be here next year, regardless of whether Rhule is or not. Probably the year after as well.

We will see, but I am 99.8% sure you are wrong.

Or they could have a qb coach that could help him. As most teams do.

Its 99.9 percent true. Definitely 99.9% true. Seriously though, looking at it objectively, without our preconceived notions about the potential for Corral's success, there is a pretty decent chance that he will be here at least three years. Now if he comes back in the third season and looks horrible in preseason, maybe not. But the reality is that if Mayfield plays well and resign him, then Corral will have a decent shot at being the backup. If Mayfield doesn't look good and we get a new coach and we draft a qb in the first round, Corral will still have a decent shot at being the backup.
