Well the optimistic in me says we're only one game back...

The realist in me says we've got a lot of improvement needed on offense to stand a shot at winning the division.

The division has to be the goal at this point bc I can't see any wild cards coming from the NFCS.

None of the other division team are unbeatable, especially depending on what happens with Brees.

This game also shows yet again how close most NFL games are... as bad as we have looked on offense, the reality is that we are not far away from being 2-0 instead of 0-2.

I think this team is going to be competitive all year, but we are going to have to win close games, which I'm expecting a lot of starting next Sunday in the desert

Panthers have the most expensive and worst defense in the NFC South. 

I dont agree with that... we're certainly not objectively any better, but the defense has played well enough to win both games.

They certainly did everything they could to win against the Bucs. No defense can compensate for an offense that cant punch it into the endzone.

And its arguable we played better defense than the Rams also

Its valid to make the argument the defense, especially the Dline, is overpaid relative to their production, but they've done their part.

Special teams has too... the offense is the reason we are 0-2

Your forgot least imaginative. Whatever happened to that A gap blitz Luke and TD used to run? Other teams are shuffling their best players all over the field to create mismatches. Ours is straight Milli Vanilli.

      Canales is holding us back

      I don't think Dave touches the defense. That might be a mark against him but definitely a huge red flag for evero. He refuses to run anything other than soft zone and when you don't get pressure that's an awful scheme

      You don't have to convince me. I think not picking up the option should absolutely be firmly on the table but I just do not see Tepper and Morgan doing that for previously stated reasons. Therefore I'm not going to bother entertaining the notion. Just hoping we actually get real viable competition. If that doesn't happen at the minimum then my perception of that is complete and utter professional malpractice.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Bama Panther · Posted

      It was absolutely a catch, and I can’t believe how many folks were stating, before the NFL’s apology, that the overturn was the right call.  The ultimate question in this case is this: can a player complete a catch with only one hand? Of course, we all know the answer to that question, and it is an emphatic “Yes.” T-Mac maintained complete control with one hand (believe it was the right) while the other came off when the ball hit the ground. The ball was in the same position in the one hand (watch T-Mac’s fingers in relation to the NFL shield on the ball) after touching the ground as it was when it first went to the ground. Going back to the question above, if one hand can establish control, then there was no need for the other to stay on the ball, so long as the ball doesn’t move in that one hand that stays on it   It blew my mind that they overturned this in the first place. This should not be a “We got it wrong on the replay because there wasn’t clear and convincing evidence.” This should have been, “That was absolutely a catch.”
