He chose to go with Teddy and Darnold. Whatever shortcomings he has as a result is on him. Ginger Minj Olympics GIF by RuPaul's Drag Race

Well....if you think about it, he'd be in the same situation had we drafted Fields instead. 

So no matter what QB is there, the shortcomings will always fall on him.

Joe better wake the f*ck up.

I haven't been all that impressed with Joe Brady. I can the talent but to me, it seems to be mostly of the play of his best players, repeatedly. CMC got injured, so we lost that plentiful option. DJ was locked by Slay and Brady had no options. I don't know why but we're not making Anderson a factor. The ball needs to spread around to keep the defense guessing.

As far as adjustments, there haven't been many on offensive or defense in the 2nd half this season.

The excuses are over for Brady. I don't want to hear about the o-line. Did you see what Snow had to work with last year? Legit bottom 5 talent on defense last year and STILL finished around the middle of the pack. Now THAT'S coaching around what you have. Brady has yet to show ANYTHING like that. Ok, our line is bad, well call more screens, jet sweeps, read options, rollouts, quick slants, not fuggin off tackle runs to the WORST side of your o-line. I'm done with him, he's had enough time here to show some promise. That 3rd quarter stat should be a fireable offense by itself. Bottom in the league in 3rd quarter last year, and EVEN WORSE this year.

He probably will become a head coach. Those weren't crazy thoughts.

Whenever I hear the commentators say Brady the next great OC.

Brady wasn't even an OC in LSU. Something tells me Brady wasn't that responsible for Burrows success. Panthers really need to consider a change at the end of this season if Brady doesn't improve. Which since we are having the same problems as last year makes me think he won't improve.

I’m sure Robbie wasn’t the only route and only read on those plays. 

Theres an young OC coach fad happening or years into...the McVay effect. Look around Zona hired a losing Texas Tech HC as theirs. After a rough start they are currently the last 5-0 team. Cleveland  hired Mike Zimmers 4th(or so) OC and they look like......gulp one of the better teams in the NFL for two years running...Bolts look better with a baby face running the show. Panthers just lost to one against philly..... I mean Im no fan of this fad or movement(I did like Kevin Stefanski).....the thing is results and these young guys are not worse than the OLD ass re-hires, they seemed to be a tad better. 

Joe Brady is young and acting as a NFL in the best time-line for him. Owners want to win and these young guys are getting more than the old guard.

Only thing I heard about the main reason for current fad is technology.... These young guys are just 100x better at breaking down the digital games and MUUUCCCCCCHHHH faster at it as well. What took 60 man hours in player/game/alignments/groups/etc etc now can be done in less than one hour....if you know how to use the tools available. That part of the NFL/football has changed the most and some are better at it than the others....

Random guy to you, anchor to us in the heart of Carolina.

 

I believe you, but, if he is an anchor? Why have we never heard of him? Seems to me if he was such a sage, we would have articles on here from him. Maybe I just missed them.

 

By the by, I live in the heart of the Carolinas, and have never heard of him.  But, I don't read the newspaper anymore.

We scored more points last year per game than two years ago. We are currently scoring more points per game this year than last year. Relax. It may not feel like it because everyone here is super critical of our own guys but we are improving. 

We scored less than 18 points last season? 🤔

    • They traded away their 1st next year also to get James Pearce Jr. Really hope this blows up in the Falcons face. I don't care how it happens, I just want to win the division this year. Zero sympathy for other team's issues. And our pass rush looks like it needs all the help it can get.
    • I would have released him this season, tbh and worked with Christensen out there. 
    • 10/10. We're due for some good luck, and I think this team is much better than what we've had the last 2 seasons. Defensive injuries could derail us b/c our depth there is still questionable. Still worried about the pass rush getting pressure without blitzing. Pleasantly surprised by the secondary and run defense.  Dan Morgan has done a lot to resurrect this roster from the deplorable position Fitterer left it in by showing some scouting chops with hitting on these guys drafted in the later rounds or UDFAs. Lathan Ransom & Corey Thornton both look like they fit this scheme and the NFL isn't too big for them.  I'm as excited for the rookie trifecta of T-Mac, Scourton, and Princely as I can remember. On paper, this offense is the most talented since 2021, maybe 2017, and maybe 2015. None of that means this team will produce any better, but this team has offensive talent & depth like we have rarely had in team history. If you don't believe me, go Google it. We've had some awful offensive collections overall in many years, to varying degrees mitigated by superstar talents like Steve Smith, Christian Mccaffrey, or Cam Newton.  I honestly think the collective offensive talent in 2025 may be better, but Cam was so otherworldly in 2015 & 2017 that he covered any flaws. Seriously, though, Cam doesnt get enough love for 2017. I think that may have been his best season. In general, Cam doesn't get enough respect IMHO. Both in college and in the NFL, Cam took teams that without him would have had no chance and won. True definition of a guy who elevated his team. To be clear, I am in no way am I saying this team will be better than 2017 or 2015. My point is that the offensive talent is there on offense if Bryce can unlock it.  I've been a Bryce supporter, but there are no excuses not to perform with this group. This isn't the disaster we gave him in 2023 or a new scheme like in 2024 where I think he hadn't mentally removed from his rookie season to start. I dont know how you couldnt be excited about that. And we still compete in a division that isn't insurmountable. I got got in 2023 like most of us in buying into the team propaganda, but in general, I think I'm pretty realistic about the team. I knew in my heart we would be bad last year. I wasnt expecting the defense to be that bad or Bryce to start off that poorly, but I had no expectations whatsoever for making the playoffs. And I genuinely think we will be competitive all year this season. I think we win 8-9 games and compete for the division. I think the ceiling is 11 wins, and the floor is 7. The good news is after next week, we will all be proven right or proven wrong. Keep Pounding!
