Huh? We are alone at 5-11 and the 3 teams with 6 wins have a higher SOS (we win tiebreak).

We likely cannot beat Houston’s SOS so we can only move by the Jets and Giants. The Jets play at Buffalo and they need to win to clinch the division so Jets are not likely to win. The Giants have been awful without Jones but there is a chance that Washington could decide to not try.

Barring some crazy results, we are pretty much locked into 6.

I'm gonna trust your math because I'm hammered and really don't want to get sad trying to find out exactly how poo we are.

How the hell did this team win 5 games??? 

Playing several terrible/depleted teams/back up QBs. 

I tried telling everyone at the beginning of the season that we beat 3 terrible, terrible teams... but I got bitched at for being a "debbie downer." The writing was on the wall when we barely escaped with a win against the Jets, a depleted Saints team, and the Texans.

Hold on there partner. WE beat the teams we are supposed to beat. That isn't the problem. Also we beat the Saints in one of those games when they beat an amazing team before. The problem didn't arise until we went to Dallas and faced a very good Defense and Darnold started seeing ghosts again. 

I'll never get the people that get mad for beating bad teams. Those are the teams you're supposed to beat. like wtf.

I’d be really upset if we trade down and only get an extra 2nd or 3rd. I’d also like to get one of the top tackles and use our 5 day 3 picks on IOL. Then in 2023 we can use the day 2 picks we should have kept this year on top IOL. I think this would be a really solid and talented OL:

LT - pick 6, LG - BC, C - 2023 2nd, RG - Houston’s 4th, RT - Moton

Hopefully, build out some real depth with the other 2022/2023 day 3 picks.

And then in 2024 we can draft a QB and he will take 2 years to develop so we might be competitive by 2026😀

    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
    • 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!
    • 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.
