Congrats to the Saints

Overall it was a well played, clean game by them. They are clearly the best team in the south right now and most likely on to the division title. Unless things change dramatically, I do not see any way the Panthers overcome this deficit given the remaining schedule and the state of the offense.

This game would be completely different if Cotchery catches that ball inside the 5 and Bersin catches his around the 30. That was at least 10 points that the offense gave away early.

 

Both catchable balls, but the Cotchery pass was high and the Bersin pass was ill timed and came behind him just as Bersin changed direction. Fault for both of those is shared with Cam and the O-Line.

As bright as the future looks for KB, it's painfully clear we put too much on a rookies shoulders his first year. We've got him out there expecting him to be our main threat and haul in tough catch after tough catch in the end zone like a veteran, and he just isn't ready for that role yet.

I had no doubt the Saints would win.  The Panthers offense is absolutely terrible right now.  The defense is playing better but can't be expected to be dominant if the offense can't keep them off the field.  Cam is playing as bad as he has in his entire career.  Is that just on the O-Line?  No.  He had lots of time to throw.  A lot to think about right now, but one thing is for sure.  The Panthers are NOT making the playoffs this year.  Pack it up.

    • Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.   
    • I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?
    • If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
