We're going to see a historically bad loss on Sunday

Recommended Posts

Of all the teams and places we have to play next week, playing the Saints in New Orleans is probably the last place I'd want to go. It's not just the fact that we're the whipping boys of the division and the Saints are the best, it's not just that our team is turning on each other in the locker room. The Saints are going to want revenge for when Kyle Allen tore them a new asshole in the last regular season game last year and Colin Jones shut Michael Thomas down until well into the 4th quarter. Expect to see a repeat of what happened in San Francisco, only it might get worse because the Saints will have even more motivation and Sean Payton loves to embarrass teams. Losing by 40+ isn't out of the realm of possibility.

We beat them by 20 points while they were making their big playoff push and we had lost like 100 in a row. Kyle had 3 TDs and 0 turnovers. I'm well aware they sat most of their guys, I'm well aware that Kyle Allen sucks...doesn't change what happened last time we played in New Orleans.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
