We MUST win this week.

Beating Miami would set us up for a .500 record going into the bye week. This gives Cam Newton another two additional weeks to get into the play book. Then we host Atlanta which should also be a win.

 

I truly believe we can make a playoff push but it all hinges on beating Atlanta and getting some momentum going into December. Buffalo is probably a loss, but New Orleans and Tampa Bay both look beatable.

The bills got destroyed by the colts 41-15 btw. I’m all in favor of not ruling the playoffs out yet. This is a weird season. Defense is obviously struggling against power run teams and the only team left that fits that is the Bucs...kind of. I just hope this team shows fight and are entertaining on sundays the rest of the way.

I get it. Nothing is a given. But another week of Cam getting comfortable and a defense that hopefully has their ass chewed out this week SHOULD equal a dub against Miami.

Nothing is for sure but I’d rather have fun and hope for the playoffs, be cautiously optimistic and root for this young team to grow and show some guts down the stretch then the alternative. 
 

defense is suspect but we also know they can perform at a high level depending on matchups.

I agree beating Miami sets us up well going into the Bye.  I'm trying to stay positive I really am but I think getting Cam will ultimately end up being too little too late on this season.  Gave the Eagles game away, losing to the Giants and then Skins at home yesterday. (ufff) And even though Bucs are not playing great football right now I just don't see us beating them this year.  Games might be closer than last year.  So that means you have to beat Fins, Falcons, Bills, and Saints.  I just can't trust this team to do that.

I keep telling everyone, this is not our year.  It was never meant to be.  Rhule turnarounds typically start to pay off in year three.  Not year two.  Year two is when you start to see the change begin to take hold.

 

I haven’t seen much to indicate a change. We are one game better than this time last year.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
