Ball is now placed at the 25 yard line after touch-backs, assuming no one comes out which I advise against (I dont see a Byrd)

That's 25 yards to the 50. Is that hard? Too many 3 and outs on our side. Get to the 50 and play the field position game. Make the opposing offense drive the field. This is a very key piece in all of football

uh no if i throw the ball it might hit the ground, and that stops the clock.

gotta keep that clock moving. it's like chess.

Whats really worrying is how badly checkdowns to running backs gashed us last Sunday. If Matt Ryan can get huge plays by checking down to Devonta Freeman, what do you think the most accurate QB in NFL history and the most elusive RB in the league is going to do to you on short passes?

They can and will use that tactic this weekend.  And it will be a success because our coaches can't adjust.

Its not Shula and Ron out there whiffing on tackles. But I admit your setting them up for failure by bad play design having DBs and LBs play so far off their men and give them gigantic cushions .

I'm at the point where I almost woulnd't care if Brees beats us through the air, hes a HoF level accurate QB. I just want the team to be able to shut down their running game, which was something this defense supposedly prided themselves on .

They have not shown much pride as of late.

      Sure, there's definitely a chance that a fire sale in 2022 could've paid off but I don't think that's a certainty. It's not just about stockpiling the picks and bettering odds; it's about hitting on those picks, having a stable coaching staff to develop them, and keeping the locker room engaged. We didn't exactly have a model front office nor stable coaching staff in 2022. It's worth noting that part of the reason that DJ had to be included in the trade up for #1 was because the Bears needed an immediate, proven WR1 to help Fields. It was him or another immediate first-round pick, not a future one like what was being offered for Burns (whom teams knew that things were shaky with and that they could afford to wait). As for the Eagles, they recovered because the foundation was already in place. Pederson got flak and was ultimately fired (and was just fired again this offseason from the Jags). Their recovery was quick because the foundation was already in place: Howie Roseman and a solid roster (that included a stacked OL, a second year QB, and a veteran defense). Philly had a margin of error that just wasn't available to Carolina. I'm not against using the draft to rebuild, but a full-on teardown comes with real consequences: fan disengagement, a fractured locker room, poor development, a losing environment... and I don't believe that we had the necessary leadership at the time to cleanly navigate it. That's a gamble that I want no part of.  Now that we do have a staff that seems to be in complete alignment and building for the future rather than fighting for their jobs, I'm more inclined to observe their process and see where it leads rather than backseat driving with "perfect" hindsight.

      I see it a bit differently considering there is only 20M in cap space. Given how many of the premium positions are on rookie contracts their cap should not be nearly maxed out. Tillis still has a lot of work to do before these rookies will need a second contract.
