I love Cam, but I'm legitimately concerned...  some bad throws at the absolute worst times, but I'm hoping that was rust from not playing the preseason...  but it looked bad.  But, I honestly don't even care about the miss on the overthrow to Samuel deep after the Bradberry pick, or the subsequent INT...  as bad as those were, we never should've been in that position.

The coaching was absolute dogshit today.  The offense, inexplicably, looked like Norv driving 25 mph on the Audubon for the majority of the game.  Four total timeouts blown across two halves, poor offensive playcalling for the majority of the game, no rhythm, mistimed plays, no urgency to get to fumbles by the defense (or DJ Moore), shitty officiating against us per usual, and seemingly no adjustments made across halves.

Same Ron Different Day.  Tired of his poo...  we looked completely unprepared.

He completed 65% of his passes today which doesn’t count the passes that he had to throw away because of pressure or the Olsen drop. 

Came out of the gate perfect until Moore fumbled. He missed a few throws where the timing was just off. It’s the first game of the season that’s expected. 

What y’all should be concerned about is the offensive line not holding up.

This was a preseason game but just one that counted. Im ok with the outcome. Honestly did we really expect to beat a SB runner up. Our defense played good enough. Offense just looked like crap first half and we couldnt turn the corner. We clean up those mistakes we wouldve won this game and the thread been alot different. We gave up 10 points. Alot of teams wouldnt even comeback from that. We almost did.

I am.  I didn't say Cam was at fault.  I actually inferred that despite the mistakes, he WASN'T at fault or the problem...  I told a friend who asked how he looked prior to the 4th that he looked good, but it felt like Norv was holding him back for some reason.  That offense was incredibly frustrating to watch.  There just wasn't any rhythm in the playcalling.  And tbh, the OL could've done a lot worse against that defense and Donald.  I really feel like the entirety of this loss falls at the feet of Rivera, again.

Goff didn’t play a snap in the preseason and looked sharp. Matter of fact none of their starters played a snap and for the most part they looked legit. Like Ron said... rust isn’t an excuse

Goff looked shitty though.

Golly, sounds like the same old poo Ron Rivera squads have been dialing up since 2012.  I’m honestly shocked that anyone still believes its ever gonna change.

You think Goff looked sharp today?

It's not that I expect Ron to change, it's that I hoped the influx of offensive weapons would eventually override his ineptitude.

What’s your definition of shitty. He hit the throws he needed to hit. Carolina cut it to one score and he led his team to a td. Looked a lot better than Cam

How he played is my definition of shitty. The were running all over the Panthers, setting up the pass. The guy had all day to make throws to very good wide receivers, but had trouble.

And to be clear, y'all know I always have been and always will be a Cam guy...  one of the biggest.  He is not the problem.  I don't want this to be misconstrued in any way.  I just said I was concerned because of the way the offense was called and the timing of some of the mistakes was troublesome, but the greater and more frustrating problem was the coaching that led to those mistakes.  But, the playcalling and the mistakes still has me concerned about his health.  I really hope he comes out and kills it Thursday and alleviates that worry.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
