If we lose out and the Bucs beat Atlanta in the finale then both our draft position and next year's schedule improve while their's gets worse!

And my friends say I cannot look on the bright side.

Don't be surprised if the Falcons play garbage on purpose

Completely and utterly fitting. Even more fitting would be if we lose to the falcons and then beat the Saints because ron goes ultimate riverboat mode and heinicke plays amazing and bails ron out from a stupid decision at the end of the game. Those from the MNF game to the end of the season, that would perfectly represent Ron’s time here. Mostly sucktitude with players bailing him out and the occasional glimpse of the riverboat.

What I blame on Ron this year is letting the defense go to poo and not sitting Cam until his hand was force, and playing Moore and Samuel when it was too late while forcing Funchess and Smith to play over them. And, once again god awful time management and a unwillingness to adjust and continuing to play the game like it's 1990. You cannot win games when your QB can't throw the ball, at all, it was clear Cam should have sat a long time ago.

Ron making the same mistakes he has made year after year.

    • 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.
