I thought Smitty was funny as hell, if none of you like the truth all I can say is ICE UP SON! Also I don’t think we have found our kicker Joey is done but I’m not sold on Santoso being starter. And by the way we’re all the PJ fans, Grier to me has won backup job unless they go get someone which I don’t see happening.

yeah, I literally just said the stats don’t tell you the story of tonight.  

The final drive as the half was about to expire vs backups….doesn’t  erase the fact the O got handled fairly well by the Steeler backups for almost 2 quarters. 

The starting OL looks like a massive issue.  And that was vs backups.  That’s a bad recipe for Sam Darnold to be behind that.  Lot of work is needed there IMO. 

Thank you. That score meant nothing at all. I saw a porous offensive line and two gloves without the accuracy. Love the D but playoffs? No chance.How can you throw a streaking receiver behind by 3 yards?

It appeared PJ went into tonight with the edge over Grier.   So I guess we will see.   He put a lot of balls into people’s hands tonight…

think people overheard 89 say he put too much heat on a ball and treated that as the end all be all….and closed their eyes on all the balls hitting guys in two hands.   Which Rhule noted in his post game presser.

Whilst a self admitted homer, the 1st half exceeded my expectations. I don't give a f what Darnold does with his feet if he delivers the ball on time. That half second faster Darnold releases the ball vs. Teddy is the difference between a first down and a punt.  It's how winning is done. See you aholes in Valhalla.

Grier probably won. However, the receivers failed to catch alot of catchable footballs last night. But context aside, Grier won. But I said it before and I'll say it again, Grier is not the guy to go to if something should happen and they need the backup QB to go in.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
