If we get swept by the Saints or Falcons, shouldn't that be the nail in the coffin?

Getting swept by the Falcons who are possibly worse than us, should be

Getting swept by the Saints (that will be 5 losses to them in 2 seasons) should be

I'm not sure if missing the playoffs should be the final nail in the coffin, but you must win against your division point blank period. If you're not good enough compete and win against your rivals, you have to fire the coach and start over

What does my thread have to do with playoffs?

This is about getting swept by Falcons or Saints should be the reason Ron Rivera lose his job if not for anything else

Playoffs or not, sweep or not ... this team is trending in the wrong direction. We need some fundamental changes. We clearly have talent on offense. Even on D, we have people that we can build on like D-Jack and uhhh ...  I got no one else. Our D needs  some serious love 

This D isn't THAT far off. Add a legit pass rusher and a true centerfielder type FS and you'll see a world of difference.

This is why I am for blowing up the whole thing. This is as good as it gets. I’m not a knee jerk fire the coach kinda guy, but we need a different staff and a different attitude 

If you remember the 2001 season, we had many games where we just quit. The very next year, we went young and Jack Del Rio lit a fire into that unit and made them an elite D. The result was immediate

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By Icege · Posted

      I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.

      Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
