Sounds stupid to say--but, it's someone's brain (serious)

This may cause a stir but I'm just pissed the f*ck off.  We just straight up saw a headhunting campaign, live on national television.   

First though:

1. Our defense played like dogsh*t

2. Rookies looked like rookies

3. The entire D in the second half was just off

So---seriously, we just saw over an hour of these nimrods launching their bodies full speed into Cam's head directly in front of the referees.  This has happened every year but for bleep's sake, the kid is going to be mush by 40 if the NFL just keeps letting this happen.  I've never been so disgruntled after an opener but the Broncos have made my head boil over.   There needs to be a MAJOR campaign to do something.  The spotty calls depending on the QB type is beyond ridiculous at this point.  It was hard to watch Cam's presser because he's obviously concussed and not even in the moment.  

PLAYER SAFETY.  I mean, holy sh*t  

This goes beyond a simple loss, it's head trauma caused by intentional, egregious hitting that's supposedly illegal.

The thing is, Dennison has been known to instill this sh*tty attitude into the lineman because of loophole BS west coast zone schemes on offense since the 90s, but the mindset is on their D and it's just embarrasing.  

What if KB legit got re-injured from the obvious leg target?  Broncos are absolute scum.

This is a VERY serious issue. The hell with one loss, Cam's brain will be jelly at the end of season if the refs are just going to allow opposing defenders to launch theirselves at his head all season. At some point, our O-line or WR's have to stand up and fight back. Stand up for your damn QB for christ sake and start throwing some blows back their way.

This is true.  I know he does the superman deal but it's like our line is like, "oh he'll be ok"

They wanted to look all super tight last season, well they need to start going to bat for one another game time when this starts going down again.  Our o-assistants wand Olsen seemed like the only one's giving a sh*t.  Ugh.  At the end of the day it's a kid in his mid-20s getting rocked like this meanwhile these asses are jerking off to semen throwing 2 picks and somehow doing "great".  

Our run D looked like 2011

At some point the offensive lineman needed to take matters into their own hands and protect cam as if their life depended on it.... Very disappointed in the guys not getting testy watching Cam get brutally assaulted all game

Oline get testy?

How?  Trai Turner was already given 1 personal foul for being excited about a TD for goodness sakes.

If they'd acted up they'd have been ejected.

But if they had been ejected, maybe it would have made a point.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
