I’m not even mad at giving Darnold a chance. I didn’t agree with it, but sure I get he was cheap with some potential. Not having a plan B is my issue. Going all in on Darnold was a terrible mistake…

Imagine having a QB at #9 as a plan B? Man..Would have been nice ot have competition for Darnold to you know, COMPETE.

Mr Tepper… you know what’s up.. you got the coach, you got the gm but you don’t have the qb the oline and possibly a OC …. winning vet leaders on the roster  ….for every position group we should have vet from a winning background …  to able to coach these players about the soft and hard skills of the game as a winning player side by side (don’t give poo how good, how old or injured… … we both know we might not even be talking about this if cmac has been in the lineup … we probably be 4-3 5-2 ….. with that said you have to tell the gm … you need a vet QB now and over pay for oline asap ….. if you want to save the season. Once cmac is back and Gilmore getting a lot of snaps we should have a strong 2nd half … keep pounding the future is still bright !!!!!

Apparently Tepper doesn’t suffer fools, we will see.

Rhule’s press conference in the week and Panthers performance today was akin to a CEO saying to the street we are going to smash the earnings next quarter and then completely shitting the bed. That’s Tepper speak and we will see if he is as astute in sports as he is in business.

Rhule is naive at best and out of his depth at worst.

Rhule should’ve hired a former HC as OC. I’m sure there are many things he doesn’t know he doesn’t know and he has no one around to tell him.

Very good point. No problem with having a young visionary as a leader if surrounded by experienced previous leaders. I’ll make a note of that for my future CEO roles…..in my dreams

      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.
