sports illustrated nfc south preview


Recommended Posts

TLDR

saints - 12-4

falcons - 10-6

bucs - 9-7

panthers - 2-14

apparently our 'best case scenario' is 7 wins and brady being scooped up as a head coach, and our """worst case""" scenario is bottoming out and picking trevor lawrence (PBUH) first overall next year. dunno about you but i'd pick option 2

Couldn't ask for much better than that after stripping the team of most of the talent. 

If we can get an elite QB prospect after just one year in purgatory, all this would immediately be worth it.

God I hope this is correct! Exactly what we need to happen to get TL!

Sports illustrated is poo and fug going 2-14. I think this team will exceed most expectations and I’d rather see the surprise of success than a high draft pick any day. 

Based on what exactly?  Its getting quite old people saying this without anything backing it up.

A dynamic offense? Everyone was shitting on the old regime coaches, now we have new ones. 
 

This team looks to be built for speed. @nctarheelreincarnated - Nobody is tanking this year, when will that get drilled into your heads.

Matt Rhule does not strike me as a guy that will enjoy losing. He strikes me as a guy that wants to build a winning program now and not wait a year in the hopes for a QB that may or may not work out in the NFL.

A crappy oline. A green first time OC who has never called plays.  A qb that hasnt played more than 5 games in years. A rb due to miss time. 

 

Let's pump the brakes on hyping this offense just yet no matter how bad rhule hates losing.

Lol. The defense is literally the youngest in the NFL the past ten years. That’s a fact. If he thinks we’re winning starting 5 Rookies on defense, I can go ahead and sell him some beach front property in Montana. Again, anyone thinking this team will be good is the biggest and dumbest homer.

    • 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.
