On Sirius NFL this am they were discussing why all NFL for the most part are against the new OT rules.

Both the Bengals and Panthers played 5 full quarters last week. Both teams showed absolutely nothing from the very first snap on Sunday.

Now we would have been beaten regardless bc of our D being a bad matchup but the playing a full q more than any team the week prior didn't probably help things

Doesn't explain why the defense looked it worst in the first quarter and gradually improved. If fatigue is the reason, they would have gotten worse as the game went on.

Maybe GB just eased up considering it was over at the first quarter.

Looked more like Rodgers had resorted to trying to get as many people stats as he could as the game went on and his emphasis was on just spreading it around for the sake of that.

I don't think he even looked at Jordan Nelson after the first q. Too easy to do that

If this was the first time we had been blown out this season, I would have agreed with you. But we've seen this poor showing week in and week out. Besides, didn't Rivera give them lots of time off practice or something like that?

Well I made sure to note we would have been beaten soundly regardless....

But at least in some other beatdowns like Pitt we were in it for chunks. This game was over 10 minutes in

Started in New England in the preseason, but we all dismissed it as an aberration.

I think this had a big impact on the Panthers getting blown out.  The Bengals/Panthers game was grueling on both teams. At least the Bengals were at home and only had to travel a few hours west to Indianapolis the next week, but they got trounced worse than the Panthers.  Going into next week, the Panthers starters only played 3/4 of a game and get to play at home against a Seahawks team making two cross country trips in a row. Things should turn around...right?

Do what? Pretty sure both teams scored 37 points apiece. To say that "both teams showed absolutely nothing" is asinine!

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
