I'll just get this out of the way right up front- I don't like these lines. But, I'm not the expert, nor am I the head coach. Maybe these combinations worked for RBA, and the number of shots, fewer penalties and a defensive effort that resulted in not a lot of shots from Seattle are a result? Maybe Svech had some good looks, but Aho still took only 1 shot in Seattle, and if he's the best sniper on the team, then the Canes need to do better.

Again, I was looking for an 8-point road trip and the Canes are at 7, let's see if they can get 2 today.

Shall we take a poll and try to find out just how bad the refs need to call a game before Tripp or Maniscalco actually call it for what it is? The Seattle game was atrocious, from the phantom hold on Slavin to the 5+2 on Svech that gave Seattle a man-advantage in OT. Talk about not letting the players decide the outcome of the game....

      He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes

      Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
