It's not a comparison. It's a clear example of a team looking like trash in practice and it not mattering. We also looked like trash in joint practices in 2015 before our SB run. Practices and preseason are not at all indicative of how good a team will be, so to make statements about how good the team is based on it is ridiculous.

Am I misremembering or did we not have starters play in the preseason a bunch in 2015? The only starter I would sit is cmc. That’s it.

Okay. We shall see. I'm sure we're just intentionally sandbagging. They'll never see us coming once the games start counting for real. *evil villain laugh*

We played our starters in the preseason that year. They were thoroughly outplayed by Miami and New England in that preseason.

The comparisons to highly successful organizations is baffling. I don't know where this confidence comes from.

It's selective. 

It's like the "they are treating Darnold like a rookie" arguement that was heavily played.  Starting from scratch with him.  Comes and goes.  Every young QB was out getting real reps last weekend.  Suddenly, well Darnold clearly isn't a rookie and doesn't need to risk injury. 

CMC doesn't need to play in the preseason.  Just like Lamar Jackson doesn't.  Which has nothing to do with our weak OL, QB, and rookies.

Lol, it's practice. I wouldn't read anything into it at all. The Patriots have done a lot of joint practices in the last 2 decades and had plenty where they've looked like crap and obviously still had success in actual games.

I don't know why this needs to be said but we aren't a dynasty and have a history of coming out flat in games 🤷‍♂️

Use your brain man, wow, what a useless response.

I was just making a observation that I haven't even seen a Darnold's jersey worn by a fan yet..I mean I saw a Colts fan with a Wentz jersey yesterday...and today at our team's practice there's no support for our own QB .. that's really telling and needs to be addressed.

I am hesitant to buy a jersey of any player that I don't think is a long term guy. For example, I have Smitty, Olsen, Stew, Luke, and got CMC last year. Until he proves himself, which I REALLY hope he does, Sam is just a 2 year rental as far as I'm concerned. I don't want to be that asshole who blew $100 on a jersey for a guy that may end up being a footnote in the Panthers' history books.  Let him take us to the playoffs the next 2 seasons, sign a long term deal, and THEN I'll get a jersey.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
