I cannot stress this enough:

 

It was dumb as hell.  It was so dumb, had he not converted and that nearly was the case, people could have lost their jobs if it caused us to lose.  I get it--if it is there, take it---but inside your own 40, it better be wide open--it was not.

Not Chase? 

Chase was a decent player, but he's a great coach.

Lol, so Colin Jones made the decision to fake punt while we were up 10 on our side of the field. The announcers kept talking about how ballsy that was. I wonder what he saw that made him that confident. Pretty nuts he has that autonomy, though we did trade for him and have kept him for 7 years and he's our special teams captain, so if anyone would have that ability it would be him.

But we converted and got a touchdown. Every once in a while it's cool to take chances. A lot of winning teams do that and we hardly ever see the Panthers take chances. If we don't go for it and get that touchdown, and give them the ball back it could have been a totally different game. Risk taking is a part of the game and be happy it worked out for us instead of worrying about what could have happened. Oh and nobody is losing their jobs over one play. People don't lose their jobs in this organization if you haven't figured that out by now

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
