Would you rather...

...the Panthers make the playoffs, even if it means everybody on the coaching staff gets retained?

OR

...see the team lose enough games in embarrassing enough fashion to force staff changes?

If you're completely honest, how would you rather this season play out?

Absolutely option #1. If we can make the playoffs with this offensive line and like $35M going to players not playing I think we'll be able to improve a shitload in the offseason and be an elite team. Plus I don't see how anybody can turn down first time ever back to back winning seasons, back to back playoffs and back to back division titles.

Yep. It's time for me to take a break from the huddle.

When these types of threads start, it brings the idiots out in the masses.

How anyone could pull against the team is beyond me.

If the team makes the playoffs, it would mean that the staff has seen the mistakes they've been making and would justify them getting more time.

I think we've already seen enough embarrassing loses due to our retarded coaching staff that would/should prompt any GM to pull the plug and re-organize. And when I say re-organize I mean fire this asshat SHula immediately and unfortunately Fire Rivera. I really hoped Ron would grow in to the HC position but he clearly has not.

Two things to consider:

- We could conceivably make the playoffs without a winning record

- Would you still feel the same if things turned out like SPV described?

i don't want the team to lose, but looking at how they played in the past month against good teams, there is nothing that says that we don't make a quick exit if we do stumble in.

 

getting into the playoffs is very possible, saints have a hard schedule and we have it easy. however, we don't face easy teams in the playoffs. i never want to see the seahawks come to BOA stadium again and that's what the first round would probably be.

 

nothing will click with this team. shula will NEVER "get it", and I have my doubts about Ron as well.

    • In all honesty, he should probably get that checked out. It might be (Arnold Schwarzenegger voice) "a tuuumaaa" 
    • Ah yes, my bad. It's easy to forget those handful of games Frank coached. LOL 
    • I've seen the comp a few times, and I feel there is a lot to it. Our situation is a lot like Kansas City was pre-Mahomes (without the HOF HC) Whether you like them or not, D&D are building something here.  They had a strong draft.  The team is slowly coming together, developing some identity, and has some decent blue chip parts.  Brown, Horn, McMillan, and a good OL situation that we should keep fortifying every year.  It's not much yet, but growing.    Bryce is in that Alex Smith spot.  A top draft pick, has never been overly impressive, but you can win games when he's safe with the ball.  You're not winning because of him - maybe once in a blue moon.  From time to time he's shown the ability to orchestrate some plays and lead drives.  I just don't see anything that is like - "oh snap, yeah don't let him go, he's ours".  He'll make a solid/good throw every now and again, but man, it is a struggle a lot of the time to watch.  Some terrible performances to speak of, heck he's already been benched once during year 2.      He should in no way preclude you from flirting with what else is out there.  This is not a marriage.  If you're in position (or trade range) for a guy you REALLY like come draft day, you shoot your shot. If we are in the draft process, and suddenly realize QB3-4 is a guy we really like, that's when you make a modest jump from like 16 to 11 or something like that.  Just like the Bills did for Allen, like the Chiefs did for Mahomes.  This is nothing magical that plants this franchise savior title on them, this is not some stupid trade-- it's an easy trade up to get a guy you like w/a big ceiling.  It's all player dependent and coaching/development driven.  If we don't like a QB, by all means fortify the front-7, get an awesome OLB or ILB prospect.   But we're on year 3, you kind of know what you're getting at this point.  Mostly sub-200 yard performances, low YPA, bad technique, poor mechanics, some decent stuff sprinkled in, but some bad turnover heavy ones that kill the team's momentum.  Again, run with him if there's no complete disaster that happens the remainder of the season, but don't close the door on something better just because of the investment or debatable performances.
