If it weren't for that Bengal injury with 6 seconds left in the 4th quarter...

Man, this game was just so bizarre. Noone wanted to win it, even Olsen said it was just very awkward for him to go up to the bengals players and coaches after the game, what do you even say?!

This team is a 100% clone of the 2011 team. Cam is playing lights out again while our D and special teams is putrid. Ive gotta say, I will take 3-2-1 but we arent nearly as good as our record indicates, im frankly shocked we have a winning record, I still dont even know how we have a winning record

There are too many "If"s to count with this game. Bengals fans are going through the same thing.

 

Well, this isn't supposed to be a "If we did this or that, we would have won" thread.  Regardless of what happened, it was a terrible play call that would have simply lost us the game.

This team is nothing nowhere near similar to the 2011 team.

In what universe would that be true? Because we were getting that snap off before time ran out just fine.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
