Okay, it's officially time to panic...

Never been a big fan of hitting the panic button in preseason.

Heck, I won't even panic if they stink in week one.

that depends on what the stinking is. if it's the same thing we've seen in weeks one through four of the preseason, it indicates an intrinsic problem with the team, and many of the naysayers will have valid points.

But i don't see that happening - at least not to the degree that some on here seem to hope it will.

I was at the game tonight - it was abysmal.

The low point of the night was watching 8 Panthers defenders (most of them starters) getting their hands on the Steelers running back (a backup) and none of them brought him down... that was pathetic!

What about the high point of the night? The first series where the first team D stuffed the only drive by the first team O of the steelers 3 and out?

Not one mention of that in the observer article. Hmmm.

So, you go to the worst of the pre-season games to go to, and come out hitting the panic button.

So glad to have you on board!:rolleyes:

I find this ironic taking that you our panicing without the Panthers even playing one game yet, and your avatar says believe... maybe your only believing in D. Will?

They looked horrible against the Steelers last year in preseason also.

They always look horrible against the Steelers in preseason IIRC.

This team usually starts the season kind of discombobuated anyway. Even last year the first two games weren't pretty, they just got the W.

We'll see.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By OldhamA · Posted

      I think you have to factor in that we're still not an attractive proposition for Head Coaches. You're not getting the cream of the crop if you fire Canales a year after winning the NFC South, especially considering the situation he walked into.

      Yeah, I was about to say I hope he's doing okay health-wise because he's not looking good in that pic.

      Honestly, I dont  think he should be on the hot seat yet. A bad start to next year, then yes. Despite our mistakes on play calling this past season, we played better than anticipated overall. Bryce showed improvement and maturity (although still not nowhere close to our expectations). Better record and 2-15 to 5-12 to 8-9. Despite what we feel the stats dont lie we are improving by 3 wins a year. Could 11-6 be our expectation. That's a high bar but at the rate we are going, thats what its looking like. We all want to see a 5-12 to a 13-4 record but we are methodically moving up. Success doesnt happen overnight (well in most cases).  IMO we are struggling mostly on the defensive end. LB and edge are our biggest weakness. I see Bryce making improvements (even though I was a Bryce hater) next year. Biggest concern is LT on offense. How to fix this? We need a big name edge or to trade up and get a big name edge or LB and pick up one in FA and draft one. Also if in the 3rd we can pick up a TE. Dont know if Sanders is the answer or Tremble (even though I love Trembles blocking and power after the catch). If these two can get their footwork together they would be great. Maybe all they need is a better TE coach. And if Brooks can stay healthy and be the back we thought he could be, man that would be great
