Official Ravens at Panthers GameDay thread

Were really trying to draw conclusions from a preseason game where our QB1 threw one pass and our running back that accounts for like 70% of our offense is on the sideline with a backwards hat the whole time lol

the only logical conclusions you can make is that Slye is not the man for the job and Brady’s red zone playcalling is concerning

The fact they're Hiden Sam says a lot.

I read that he was supposed to get significant playing time today.

Leadership through deception never works.

"Fooling" your opponent in the NFL doesn't work for long.

They're trying to fake it and faking it ain't making it.

 

This franchise was never much to write home about but we did have some modest success and a couple of outstanding years pre-Tepper. I would like to politely ask what the fug Tepper and Rhule are doing. We are in danger of becoming the Lions unless these clowns get it together soon.

No starter got significant playing time today.

But maybe they pulled all their starters after the first series JUST to hide how bad Darnold is so the team can still sell season tickets.

Why is every other healthy  starting qb playing more than darnold? This makes zero sense 

Next week per his presser:

asked about a plan for next week:  

Rhule said he didn’t want to say then said probably about a half.  Maybe more, maybe less. 

reporter followed up on if it was important for Sam to get a half in:

Rhule then said he didn’t say a half.  Went on about not wanting to put him out there a lot without other guys

Riiiight… why are the best and proven qbs in returning Os getting valuable snaps but a giant ? Like sam on a new team is held out? Again, makes no sense. This is not a good sign.  Not sure if it’s Bc he doesn’t know the playbook well enough yet or what but this dude needs as many snaps as he can get. This babying strategy isn’t replicated by anyone else and is especially detrimental to a qb on a new team

If you aren't playing CMC for durability reasons, there isn't much reason to play Darnold. 

The staff seems to be pretty dead set on "ideal conditions" for Darnold to get preseason burn. Not having your MVP caliber RB playing is not very ideal. 

Durability aside you know what CMC brings..  even if he played every down last season there is no reason to play him.

Joe Brady doesn’t need a preseason. He’s already in mid-season form. 

Not that Brady hasnt called some horribly mistimed plays but you guys realize the first 15-20 plays are completly scripted right?

i hope darnold gets some time. i’d hate to see him go into game 1 without any reps against another team.

if you’re worried about him getting hurt in a pre-season game, how do you expect him to make it through 17 games?

He should've played about a half of today.  I don't think much of the idea of the opener being his first real action of the year.

    • Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.
    • If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?
    • Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
