Say what you want about Beane and McDermott, but if we're being honest, were you to ask any objective football person who's the better team right now between the Panthers and the Bills, do we really believe anybody would say it's us?

Heck, I'm not necessarily objective, and even I wouldn't.

The Bills are definitely the better team right now and why it's so confusing why they keep poaching guys we don't even want any longer.

One man's trash...another man's treasure...etc. etc.

Heck, we pick up guys that were cut from other teams too. The advantage the Bills have had is the guys they pick up from us will already have some familiarity with their system.

Of course, after this season that won't be as true anymore.

I really don't understand how we let the Bills poach him from us in the first place. JR was clearly at the end of his rope with Gettleman. You don't up and fire a guy out of the blue. That divorce had been brewing for awhile. In hindsight, he should've fired Gettleman to promote Beane instead of firing Gettleman roughly seven weeks after letting the Bills poach the guy you had been grooming to be the long-term successor.

If JR would have done that, then Beane is not in Buffalo to have the know and jump us and take Dion Dawkins.  People don't realize but we were all in on him to be our pick but Beane traded up one pick ahead of us to grab him in his first draft.  We ended up going Moton after he was taken. 

That could have saved Cam.  The ripples of Beane creating Carolina North are interesting. 

I'm even more excited for our future with Rhule but that whole offseason up until DG's firing was crazy.

Also, in "sort of" NFC South news (in that it regards a former Panther)

 

My last name is Grier. I feel like I have a chance of getting signed by the Bills if I stand outside their stadium with a #3 Panther Jersey on.

It’s crazy to me how little success we have had over the years but then our ex-coaches and GM’s love to bring the same garbage players along with them whenever they go somewhere else. Win or lose, I’m happy to have Rhule right now. At least it’s fresh. 

it may be that McDermott and Bean see qualities in players they coached while with the Panthers and feel the coaches that took over after their departure did not get the best out of those players....minus fatty Benji which the BILLS realized and moved on.

Julio gonna be doing back pain advertisements after his NFL career with how much he's had to carry the dead corpse that is the Falcons football team around all these years.

Just Julio? Yet the Falcons were 43-21 in the 4 years before they drafted Julio...

    • After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.
    • Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once. 
    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
