Olsen doesn't pass the buck..

Cam will say I can't make throws like that or take sacks like that or I need to trust the OL. Greg says the game came down to him not catching that ball. Meanwhile, Ron says players had missed opportunities. That drop was so rare for Greg, I don't even feel right blaming him. It wasn't on him, this was pure 4th quarter coaching.

It was not an easy catch, but it is one that he normally comes down with.  Personally, I would have liked to have seen us throw something underneath on at least one pass, to get it a little closer.  But Cam had trouble throwing the short stuff all day, or I receivers screwed it up, so I guess I can understand why they didn't try it.

They went underneath the entire second half and Cam picked them apart. This passing game is either feast of famine. There is very little situational passing. I think a lot of the complaint about the Oline is that Shula puts so much pressure on the Oline to hold for those late breaking routes.

    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
