We didnt win that game, Ron lost it. I'm still convinced he was trying to tank to get a better QB. He was just out sucked by Pederson. 

As much I would like to believe that, I think Tepper's ego didn't want to see his new coach lose to his old coach.

Ron stuck with Haskins despite his performance then cut him the next day. If you believe in a guy you don't start him then cut him, especially when he was the previous year's first round pick. If he had benched him in the 1st, we lose that game. I think Ron knew what he was doing. They weren't going far in the playoffs and losing to us, then Philly would have made it much easier for them to acquire the QB they needed. Moving up from 19 is a lot harder than from 6.

Sad. 

And we weren't even going to get the #1 or #2 for that matter, all out of reach come the WFT game so it's such a stupid thing to keep bringing up. NYJ and JAX were never moving their picks.

So Wilson and Lawrence would still be off the table.  In a way, it saved us from people being butt hurt over us favoring Mac Jones over Fields & Lance and we'll likely get someone just as if not more impactful than who we would have gotten at #3.

Sad. 

Win culture are wrong, 100%. BUT the one saving grace form that mistake is this- Im about 90% sure theyd kept the 3rd pick, even after 49ers insane offer and drafted Mac "*******" Jones.

Plus LOLOLOLOL at the win culture morons thinking that win is worth more than 3 firsts(one being 12th this years) and a 4th.

I'd love to see the lose culture morons go talk about this with players and coaches. Go tell them they are morons please.  PLEASE

Before I got further, answer this simple question- Was the week 16 win against WFT worth 2021 12th overall, 2022 1st & 3rd, and 2023 1st? Yes or No.

Great post OP. This new regime seems to be at least making effort, and I will applaud that always. Not every signing will work out, just like not every draft pick will, but I am ecstatic about the hustle and attempt to get better. Like every year around this time I am cautiously optimistic, don't see how you can be a fan and not be.

    • I mean, poster also said Young or Mahomes, it would have made no difference.  If there was way to actually test that hypothetical, I would sell every belonging I have and wager that Mahomes would indeed yield different results.  Mahomes automatically changes the D coverages.  He automatically changes the threats.  He attacks and threatens a field different vastly different.   We have seen good QBs and great QBs play behind horrific OLs in a single season....and they don't default into being the worst team in the NFL.  Frank Reich was old, stubborn and not creative enough to deal with an anomaly QB like Bryce.  The best QB in the NFL wouldn't be handicapping Frank, they would be enhancing Frank.  Starting week 1, Frank didn't even trust Bryce with basics....Frank gave him I what I feel comfortable with you being able to do offense.  Which took throws and plays off the table because Bryce couldn't do early on what a bad vet in Dalton could.  Mahomes would not yield the same results. 
    • All I have to say to this really, is it sounds nice and downgrades Stroud to make Young look better is more like what this take does. Look at the WR numbers the year before and then the year with Stroud. He made them better, not the other way around. That’s my opinion. I appreciate you designating that it was yours. Many state these things as facts.
    • but what if.....and here me out....the pro Bryce Young stuff was coming from people under Fitterer.  You know, the people who are employed to feed him that input.  And they happen to all still be employed here.  when Rhule was fired I desperately wanted Fitterer fired.  It set things up for Fitterer to be the sacrificial lamb the next time things went poorly....every time we move on from a disaster, we are retaining a heavy % of the folks who helped bring the disaster we are "moving on from".  Everyone argued Fitterer probably could be great and it was all Rhule.  We are just repeating the same stuff to a degree IMO.   Panthers needed a clean slate post Rhule era.  Needed another post Frank era.  Things were just too bad or too dysfunctional IMO to be salvaging so much.   We keep failing to do that.
