All accounts I have read online said he has zero interest in recruiting. 

Ah hah. I hadn't seen that.

His calls just seem really uninspired compared to last year (which still were problematic at times, lol).  Maybe he is being hamstrung by Darnold and the OL.

We have seen Watson in Houston be very successful with an equally poor offensive line for years. The problem there was often their defenses were bad as well. 

I haven't seen the exact comparison between OLs, but there are QBs that make things happen behind bad OLs for sure. Darnold doesn't see the field and throws into windows after they close.

His play calling last year was an issue just in the red zone. For the most part this year we had been heavily improved in the red zone. Unfortunately, our QB is still an idiot at times and makes really, really bad decisions with the football.

Nah the NFL has worked him out and he isn't good enough to adjust.

Yeah... I think that when we tried to force him to call a run based offense his calls got much worse. That isn't his strength as a playcaller, nor do we have great personnel for it.  But a bad QB and OL are hard to work with in a passing game for sure. Especially when our receivers also haven't been particularly reliable this year.

Where are all of the "real fans" at? 

We still pretending you're only a real fan if you're in denial that our current team is total poo? 

@PanthersGOATFan336@Moo Daeng @iamhubby1 and all you other positive pollies that were gatekeeping my fandom last week?

Can I criticize the team yet? 

Don't worry man, I got chastised this morning for doubting we would make the playoffs.  What the heck was I thinking????  Clearly we are a SB contender!

Ive actually wondered about this.  So many times announcers remark the opposing team seems to always be in the right place. I'm wondering if teams have learned how to read our plays by personnel etc.

I don't know any Oline that could be successful in front of this QB. 

WHUUUUUUUTTTT?  Dude, the homers at CBS (AFC crotch sniffers) were even clowning our OL.  It was more praising the Pats for completely decimating/owning/embarrassing our speed bumps rather than taking pity on the OL, but the point still stands.

Our oline is terrible but not as bad as our qb.

    • The reset worked with proton.me.. wouldn’t work with my Gmail, Yahoo or Verizon email accounts 
    • Wish they started at 5:30 or 6 at the latest so I can watch it. I have to be in bed by start time.
    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.
