I am all for trading all the way out of the 1st and load up on a massive haul of 2nd/3rd round picks.  Carolina needs alot of help.  Stock the team with young talented players.  Thats how you rebuild.

We’ve been doing that but our coaches are idiots. Minus Snow of course.

Except the early 1st is a perfect place to get an exceptional starter.  Look at our 2nd and 3rd rnd draft history... Imo we need to stay near the top of the 1st, grab a solid addition to the OL, and go from there.  I'd love to trade back a few spots but honestly I think we are better off filling a hole for sure than hoping day 2+ picks develop into the high level talent we want.

We do have some good young pieces too we just need new cosches.

if Matt Rhule stays....Nixon and Snow stay.   Matt Rhule isnt' firing Snow (who has made all his success) or his best friend. 

Everyone under the bus at this point going forward are players.....as these coaches boldly lie about what your eyes have witnessed all season.  Excellent passing game early this season.  Close to contending.   The repeated narrative that Nixon is dialing up guaranteed first downs or touchdowns if players just did their jobs.   

Clowns.  And that's how they view us.  Becauase they are trying to sell that nonense to us.

Its possible Nixon is demoted/returns to his old spot and we get a new OC.  I could see that... It's a perfect opportunity for Rhule to show Tepper he's making changes without hurting his friends careers. 

Snow is not going anywhere... Just can't imagine it.

1-16.... maybe...  thats what I see if this continues.... this team will play the role of a tune up game for other teams... 

Im expecting another 4 or 5 win season.  The thing is, Rhule is a bad coach but we have enough talent on D to win a few games. Just enough to keep us out of the too spot of the draft imo.

and Matt Rhule and Nixon continue to prove in pressers.....that they don't feel secure that they will be back.  The lobbying and lies about what they are is proof they don't feel secure that they will be back.   They wouldn't continue to sell this nonense so hard to last couple weeks if they knew Tepper was bringing them back.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
