Do we even want to talk about the Falcons game or are we just chalking up another loss?

I'm sorry, my guitar playing friend, but I'm not giving up yet.  Rhule will put some fire under some asses and we will win.  21 Panthers - 10 Atlanta.

If the game was at home, I'd have more optimism, but even our 15-1 team dropped the game in Atlanta. I hope Darnold bounces back from a bad showing against the Giants and can move the team.

Falcons 20

Panthers 13

But why win, hell might as well take CMC out for another year and trade him?

That’s loser talk we’re a competent qb and solid off-season away from being a playoff team you don’t trade your best player just because. If you want to limit his reps a lot more (which we should do regardless) and let Chuba get more run cool but I’m of the opinion that *next* year is the year we should be a playoff team. Rhule inherited a disaster of a roster and he’s significantly improved it I just think Jerry Jones was right when he said when you hire a college coach  “You pay a price for somebody to get up to date.”

Mike Davis revenge game…..he got less than a handful of carries last week, so I fully expect him to put up pro bowl number against us.

Did you not see his "revenge game" last year against the Bears?

Fumbled for the first and only time in some ridiculously crazy stat and did a great Mike Tolbert SuperBowl edition impression by doing that and generally looking like a fat and slow slob.

I think this next game will be very telling about the identity of this team. After losing to a lesser Giants team and playing uninspired. If Panthers lose next week, it will tell a lot about Coach Rhule and his staff. I refuse to believe that we have a less talented roster compared to the Giants and Falcons, if we lose it's because of the coaching staff. As head coach, you are paid millions of dollars to get the best out of your players and put them in position to succeed.

Rhule is done and we’re not even done with year two. We’re getting worse, sorry but can’t agree with you there.

Yeah he looks really bad right now, and it’s looking like he will be cut next year. With that being said I bet he gets 200 yards and 3 TD’s this week against us because the defense it on the field 95 percent of the game.

This sounds EXACTLY like you are talking about last season with Bridgewater. Its just the same poo on repeat.

So we bottom out like the Eagles and just don’t try and lose even more fans? I was at the Eagles game it was damn near a home game for them. We’ve got to at least try to win I’ll never want to root for a team that actively tanks.

personally I think it’s time we start tanking…but to be honest I’m not sure what they can even do to win if they wanted to…so is that really tanking?

who cares really, what we don’t need is a Rivera trademarked 7-10 season getting fuged from all directions 

I'd prefer they keep trying. Because it's apparent they can't coach for poo. If we start trying to lose, Rhule might fug up and win a game or two.

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By CRA · Posted

      I don't need that many words to say Bryce Young has not yet surpassed the caliber of QB play that current Joe Flacco represents.   I have watched every game Bryce has played.  He doesn't give you average QB play.   He can't make a ton of throws.  Bryce is consistent overall in what he is.  You can take outlier games on both ends of the spectrum out of play and judge him or any QB.....for Bryce it is unquestioned bottom of the league play.  All you have to do is watch the two play.  Flacco is good enough that if you can keep up right and give him time.....he presents a level of play Bryce can't do as a passer

      Not sure.  Which ones have more GWDs in the same time frame?

      You kinda gloss over this, but this is really at the crux of this whole argument....which Flacco are we talking here?  You bring up that he played with 3 different teams but ignore the fact that his performance varied quite a bit from team to team. 2024 Colts: 65.3% completion, 12 TDs, 7 INTs, 220.1 YPG, 7.1 Y/A, 90.5 rating 2025 Browns: 58.1% completion, 2 TDs, 6 INTs, 203.8 YPG, 5.1 Y/A, 60.3 rating 2025 Bengals: 63.4% completion, 12 TDs, 3 INTs, 290.6 YPG, 6.8 Y/A, 96.2 rating 2025 Flacco (Browns + Bengals): 61.1% completion, 14 TDs, 9 INTs, 252.0 YPG, 6.1 Y/A, 80.8 rating vs. 2025 Bryce: 62.7% completion, 14 TDs, 7 INTs, 196.2 YPG, 6.2 Y/A, 86.0 rating I bolded the comparison that I think objectively makes the most sense...just simply comparing the two QBs for the entire season.  Otherwise you'd be cherry-picking Flacco's time with the Bengals and ignoring his earlier stint with the Browns, which sounds an awful lot like people cherry-picking Bryce's stats in the second half of last season. So again, which Flacco?  Basically the only thing consistent with Flacco across each of these teams was his W/L records: 2-4, 1-3, and 1-4 respectively.  I'd say if we're comparing each version of him to Bryce this year: Colts Flacco > 2025 Bryce, Browns Flacco <<< 2025 Bryce, Bengals Flacco >> 2025 Bryce, and 2025 Flacco < 2025 Bryce - Flacco this year only beats out Bryce on YPG but in part because he throws significantly more passes (almost 60 YPG more than Bryce, despite a lower Y/A which is pretty telling) .  Flacco is maybe the most apt case study about how important a QB's circumstances are to his success.  He was easily a bottom 3 QB in Cleveland and arguably top 10-15 in Cincinnati...and we're talking about the same player from the same season.  All that happened was taking him from one team and plopping him onto another team; nothing inherently changed about him as a QB.  Funny enough I think that's all that one dude on here was trying to say when he made that long poorly-received post after having an epiphany working for PFF behind the scenes or w/e.  That it's largely short-sighted to just try to evaluate QBs in a vacuum when there are so many variables at play that ultimately decide whether a QB is successful or not.   I think Bryce has been mediocre at best this season and I'm ready to move on regardless of how he ends this season - I'm highly skeptical a strong end to the season will carry over into next year considering how last year ended and this year began.  I would certainly agree that he's a bottom-third QB this year.  I just don't understand you scoffing indignantly at anyone holding the opinion that Bryce has had a better season than Flacco...I can only assume it's recency bias.  Or maybe you know the stats don't support you, which is why you're conjuring up the god-forsaken arbitrary "eyeball test" which is the kinda thing people in here were saying about Fields for years, pinky promising that he really truly was a franchise QB despite his awful stats.  Perhaps it's called the eyeball test because I roll my eyes anytime I hear someone bring it up seriously as an argument.
