  1. I agree, Mac Brown has given Carolina its best stretches of football in my lifetime. Personally, I hope they fire him.
  2. I don't remember if Peyton was, but he did have a lot of hype around him, so you are probably right. Andrew Luck is not of the list of greatest NFL qb's, even before the injuries started to pile up.
  3. Every time I hear the phrases "can't miss" or "generational talent", I take it with a grain of salt. If you look at the best NFL quarterbacks, very few of them were called those things in college. In fact, I can't think of any who were.
  4. I agree. All you want are receivers who can get open and catch passes, and a qb who can get it them. The numbers thing is mostly for fans and sportscasters.
  5. He won't come here. Cowboys, Forty Niners, Bills, etc... are where he would end up. No reason to come to a 0-6 team.
  6. Regarding Amtrak delays, what form of transportation these days doesn't face delays? The last time I flew, I ended spending 12 hours in the Dallas Airport, waiting thru a long delay. I drove from NY to NC in August and got delayed four hours because of crashes on 95. Delays are just part of travel these days and I doubt Amtrak is any worse than the others. I have learned to either be prepared for potential delays or stay at home
  7. More importantly, he got better receivers and experience.
  8. That is not true. We had a fake and a missed fg.
  9. I personally don't think its a matter of Arm strength. Its more about accuracy and timing. He can certainly throw it far enough with no problem. And he doesn't really strain to throw it. But his accuracy on throws that are 20 yards in the air (in particular to his left), seems to be a big question mark right now. I will point out that Tua had the same question marks early in his career. His first year and a half in the league seemed to be mostly 5 yard passes.
  10. If the play call on the 4th was Tremble, that was horrible. If that was Bryce's decision, then I hope he learns not to do that anymore.
  11. It doesn't matter now. I mean we are to the point where we just want to see if Young has what it takes.
  12. Good try there, almost got it. Will be nice if the defense can come up with a big stop here.
  13. Glad we are running it with Hubbard on first down.
  14. He was coming off of injury. But his second season wasn't that great either.
  15. That might have been his best pass of the season. Under duress and on the money.
  16. This has to be one of the most boring, ugliest games, I have ever seen.
  17. If Bryce turns out to be a good long term qb, then the trade was worth it. If not, it wasn't. As far as anyone saying that we were a qb away, the only place I saw that was here. Maybe it was on twitter or something, but that means even less than the comments here. If someone from the team said it, then they were stupid, but I don't remember anyone saying it. Most analyst said Bryce was a good pick, but we would still finish last. It appears they were right about the second part. Hopefully, they were right about the first part.
  18. Fwiw, Baker Mayfield has looked good this year. And yet we dumped him after a few games last year. I do hope we do have some patience with Young.
  19. Well, in fairness, the QB experts on the huddle wanted Mayfield gone after two games. And now he has a good shot at being the QB of one of the better teams in the NFC.
  20. Hubbard running well. We should let Matt Rhule's wife make all our running back draft picks.
  21. My wife's car got tboned in a parking lot last year, so we had to buy her a new one. We did order a specific one, vin number and all. But it did come in a couple of weeks earlier than initially promised. Personally, I had no issue with it. I think they just give you the latest possible date.
  22. And the Saints or Falcons would have picked Dalton off a couple of times. Dalton made several bad throws in the second half when receivers were open and he had time. The weather might have been a problem, but he didn't play well.
  23. We didn't draft Young to be good immediately. We drafted him to be good for the next 10-12 years, (if he works out).
