Let us not forget this product is AFTER an offseason of focus on the offense rebuild

While this staff is making excuses for it taking time and the offense not being there, we just had an offseason where we traded for a QB, drafted 2 WRs, RB, TE, 2 OLs, signed 4 OLs, signed a TE.  This is the product. 

What if I told you that week Rhule was signed, before Luke retired, while we still had Cam, we would be looking at Sam Darnold, Ian Thomas, & Ameer Abdullah leading the way come the end of our second season? Our TE1 isn't even the guy he signed OR drafted, our main pass catching RB is a Detroit castoff, and our QB a NYJ castoff.  Just putrid.    

Just another negative thread but we shouldn't lose that this is all after an entire offseason with really an offensive focus.  They were able to handpick like every player minus CMC & Moore.  This is just stupid roster building.

Sure I guess but it's not like we went out and made a bunch of splash signings or high picks on offense. This wasn't the New England offseason where like $100 million were spent on new receivers/tight ends or Kansas City trading a first for an OT and paying a premium for Thuney. Our flashiest moves beyond Darnold involved dumpster diving for our O line, and spending one of the last picks of the 2nd round for a 3rd WR. 

Either way, when you don't have coaches capable of designing a NFL caliber offensive gameplan, it doesn't matter who you have.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      This is a good take it really is to the point dc needs to let the world see the real byoung b/c right now everyone in the media and tepper has had blinders on when it comes to young.  Its hard to even know where the panthers are at skill player wise with such horrible qb play.  I doubt it but legette may be a probowl wr he just cant throw the ball and catch it.  I am just so sick of every excuse in the book for byoung.  LIstened to a podcast and the guy was going over how many different options byoung had on the int and all of them were ok except for the one where he threw an int.  He said the play could be run by a hs qb and they would typically make a good decision.

      We have a Dave Canales Problem

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I certainly have my complaints about Canales but I'm not ready to fire him yet for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, Tepper has made this one of the least appealing jobs in the league. Morgan and Canales are here to begin with in large part because guys higher on the wish list take other jobs. If you fire Canales you're gonna end up replacing him with another third tier candidate who wasn't being seriously considered by other teams with openings. That's just the reality of the situation right now as far as I can tell. Secondly, despite plenty of room for critique, we are 6-6 despite the worst QB play in the league. That's really damn hard to pull off in the modern NFL. Especially when your D isn't dominant. Our D is greatly improved but is still a slightly below average overall defense ranking 18th in yards per game allowed and 20th in points allowed. Going 6-6 with atrocious QB play and slightly below average defensive play is pretty damn impressive. Even more impressive when you also factor in that we're in the red on turnovers differential at -3. When you combine league worst QB play with slightly below average D and negative turnover differential honestly you'd expect to be in play for the #1 overall pick, not 6-6 and having just played a game that a win would have you leading the division. So yeah, even though I'm far from sold I advocate for patience with Canales for the time being. If you ask me if I'm bringing him back next year, I'm a yes barring a catastrophic meltdown down the stretch which admittedly is very much a possibility.
