I am still struggling to comprehend how we aren't at least giving BC playing time in every game.  It would be criminal to walk out of this season without knowing what we have in him.  I mean, in limited time, he's shown growth.  He even had a game where he looked average.

With this line, I'll take average.  A good coaching staff can work with average.

Monson: The Carolina Panthers offensive line is in danger of derailing the Sam Darnold reclamation project

I ran across this June2021 article pertaining to Sam Darnold and the Panthers inept offensive line and the mess he could be heading into at the time. I thought it interesting reading . Please clink on link to view.

I read that at the time and agreed at the time.

Unfortunately, it seems that Brady isn't the guru everyone thought he was.  Maybe a step up from Gase.  Maybe?

What we effectively did was talk ourselves into the idea that Sam's problem was the situation.  That's all fine and dandy, but what we followed up with was putting Sam back into nearly the exact same situation.  A line whose play demanded he be a very fast decision maker and a scheme that might not be very good.

Definition of insanity.

So much for the argument it's Darnolds fault. The Panthers o-line is worse than the Jet's  ever was when Darnold was there. And that's saying something. 

Darnold is absolutely part of the blame. He holds on to the ball and makes terrible reads when he has time. Our line last week was a disaster, but we have had a different combination every week (which is part of the problem). Tua’s line has been worse this season and he hasn’t looked nearly as bad as Sam.

Said it before and will say it again, cut all our guys cept Moron and sign whatever the best o-line in the CFL was in entirety: better line than what we have now.

You have to start at the top. The guys who drafting and the coaches. It appears that the Tepper train has jack knixed. Whole train gone off the track.

When they decided they were gonna try to rebuild Darnold, the absolute first priority should have been building a great offensive line.

What really sours me on Matt Rhule though is that I think in his mind, he believed that's what he was doing.

Why has the o line coach not been fired? A showing like that demands an immediate firing.

I think it'll probably happen at season's end. Could happen sooner I suppose, don't know.

Whether or not the problems are actually his fault would be a valid question.

It’ll be interesting if Rhule goes against his ‘I don’t fire coaching staff’ rule.

Bad players will turn in bad performances, but having a line turn in a historically bad performance is more than just bad players being bad. A ‘winning culture’ should have zero tolerance for that crap.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
