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.

      Trap game

      This won't be a trap game for them. I worry more for the next time we face Atlanta. That's a death trap game if we aren't careful.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Luckily, we've got more games ahead to watch and see what happens. Maybe he keeps growing his game, maybe we see that he's topped out when we hit stiffer competition. Or maybe he flames out against a team he should well be able to beat like the Jets this weekend. I really can't tell where all of this will end. I can say, though, there's no reason to hit the kid at the moment. Let him roll for as long as he can.  Heck, Sam Darnold is setting the league on fire right now, along with Baker Mayfield and Daniel Jones. Examples of guys mired in bad coaching on bad teams (sometimes our own) that hit their stride just as a team did. Maybe we're about to get lucky.  I do know one thing. The biggest change in a winning Bryce and a losing Bryce is that when he plays fearlessly, he is a hell of a competitor. When he gets scared, and he has so many times, it all just falls apart for him and no team can save him. Bravery makes the difference and it comes from believing in not just himself, but his line, his receivers, his running back and the play calling. Just like most young QBs. And quite a few of the old ones. Rodgers couldn't make it in the chaos of the Jets situation. He can in Pittsburgh, so it seems.

      That’s what I thought too. Maybe I interpreted it wrong. I was considering maybe taking a last minute trip but I think I’ll pass
