Nothing has changed recently about his legal situation since it was reported that Watson would waive his no trade clause for us 

Yes, people have ASSUMED that he would waive it for us.  But we've always known the entire time that the only team Watson had officially waived it for was Miami.  Not Denver, not San Fransisco, not Philly, only Miami.  

Ian did not report, "Panthers stopped their pursuit because Watson doesn't want to go there."  He said the Panthers would not continue pursuing Watson AT THIS TIME.  And then reiterated something that we already knew - Miami was the only destination he's approved so far.  And then Joe Person reported that the no-trade clause did not affect us, and that we could still try to pursue him in the offseason when his legal situation is clearer.  It is likely the Panthers just were not satisfied with what they heard at the meetings.

I don't think it needs to be explained any clearer.  If you want to keep laughing at our misery though, go ahead.

And we are a QB away, and likely staring down the barrel of 1 or 2 wins out of the remaining schedule with Darnold at the helm.

This team is not just a QB away. The Oline is a huge weakness and the defense isn't as good as people think as has been proven the last few weeks. Special teams is still...special, just not in a good way. And to top all that off, the coaching staff appears in over their heads.

That said, it's year two of the rebuild. Maybe they'll figure things out next season.

So here is our roadmap from here on out.

1. Go the rest of the season with Darnold, maybe win 1 more game

2. Draft OT Neal next draft. Do NOT draft a QB. This staff will ruin him to save their sorry asses. Let Rhule continue to be delusional about winning with his dumpster dive QBs. Let him start the season with a low tier FA QB like Jacoby Brissett or Mariota. DONT TRADE DRAFT PICKS FOR A poo QB LIKE U DID WITH SAM!!!!

3. Fire Rhule and his staff at the end of 2022 after another <= 5 win season.

4. Start over with a new coaching staff in 2023. Hopefully we will have a new owner then as well. Draft a QB and plug him into a decent core.

At least all the people that didn't want Watson can enjoy watching us win two more games this season

They probably thinking "if only we can get Jonathan Ogden and Orlando Pace to block for Sam on the line he wouldn't be so jittery and keep throwing it to the other team."

I hope he doesn't get traded before the deadline and we have a chance in the offseason. I'm not going to do another year of Samuel darnold

This is what i have settled on since sunday. Which is the only reason im pushing for PJ. Looking abolishing against the giants and only putting up 3 points is not gonna get out my head anytime soon. I dont need to see anything else from Darnold.

looks like I hit a nerve haha lol

the truth hurts.

I edited for you.  You should go look again.  

Like I said, I've been here and I'll always be here through good and bad.  

And yeah, you hit a nerve because I'm tired of idiots that don't know any better ruining it for the fans who actually expect better.

Miami has just as bad of an oline or worse. Miami has one win. One. Anyone looking at this team knows we have a great defense and weapons. We are an extremely talented team with more talent then Miami and he chose Miami lol. 

I’m sure location, location and location (and all that comes with that) factored just as heavily as the roster talent. These guys are human beings 1st after all.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Rasheed Walker for Kris Jenkins Jr.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
