Where's all the people b*tching about quoting OP?  I mean I don't have a problem with it, but last time I did it it was some great offense against all that is moral and kind in human society.

A little different when you own the site

Nope, and not reading that poo either. Move on with your life. We will never beat Pittsburgh.

Have you ever heard the saying "Never say Never". There is no such thing as "Never" because when it is said something does happen and we will beat the Steelers sooner or later. Stop being a pessimist all the time and have some positive thoughts or you will have high blood pressure.

I have a legit question...

Why the fug are we still talking about the Steelers? I think you guys like talking more about losses than wins. The f’ing game is over, we got stomped... **** happens. 

Time to take some frustration out on the Lions

Why am I talking about the Steelers? 

 

Eh,  had some thoughts I’ve been too busy to get out sooner..  you mad?

  • I'll take my queues from TD, he said we needed to be humbled. We were coming off a game vs the Bucs where we toyed with them like a ball of yarn and were feeling ourselves on a short week. We were prepared for another rope-a-dope and the Steelers rocked us in the mouth.
  • That first TD play call was clearly designed to put Bradberry in conflict and take advantage of his tendency to jump underneath routes.
  • Agree running play action so close to your own end zone is risky but you have to flip the script at some point, honestly Cam should have just eaten the safety - but he's a gunslinger that is capable of greatness under those same conditions so you have to live with that.
  • Rookie covering AB on a fly route with no safety help over the top = 6 pts.

Tough to eat the safety there but I agree, that would’ve been the better call

    • 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.
    • 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.
