The most intriguing match up today might be the Raiders vs. Chargers. The winner goes to the playoffs. The loser goes home.

 

Yeah would like to see the Chargers pull through. I wasn’t a huge advocate of getting Herbert but nice to see him play well.

Also curious to see if the Saints will clinch. Obviously would rather see the 49ers but even in a down year with Payton playing guys like freaking Winston and Hill somehow getting in would be something.

The game matchup isn’t interesting itself but want to see if the Bills clinch their division for another year. Kind of the team I’m pulling for in the playoffs again. Just seeing what McDermott brought to the Bills, 4 playoff seasons out of 5 and possibly back to back division titles is great. Before him the Bills last saw the playoffs in 1999 lol.

I wanted us to boot Rivera and make him HC but we just had to keep Rivera. It was no surprise that Rivera’s defense went downhill to the point of being nearly dead last (Currently has the WFT near the bottom as well) while Mcdermott went to the Bills and made them near the top. Yay for us getting to experience crappy years with Rivera and now having to experience the Rhule era because of it.

Herbert terrified me as a prospect because of how terrified Oregon's coaches were to take the leash off of him. In hindsight, that was 100% on the coaches and was likely discovered by NFL teams during the interview process. The game tape showed the physical talent was absolutely there.

I don't mind you making a other games thread, you going around telling people you aren't watching the Panthers,while being a MOD is stupid.

Stop.  I quit watching Panthers games few weeks back and I have never done that in over 20 years following Panthers.  I refuse to buy poo product.  If you ok buying poo product, that’s on you and your opinion but not everyone follows blindly.

Believe it or not, if the Saints get in it's going to be on their defense.  They currently have the #4 scoring defense in the league.  Their failures this year are 100% on the offensive side of the ball.  If they had a typical Saints offense this year, they'd probably be favorites to win it all.

This. Complacency doesn't make a "good fan" or a "real fan". It makes a sucker. The Panthers may have never established consistent success but we used to have sporadic success. Then along came David Tepper...

Yep. The Saints are probably going to be right back in the mix as a contender next year after addressing QB. Unlike us, they're an ideal destination for a good veteran QB.

    • Nobody is saying we don't need it, just that we have bigger needs elsewhere, and that type of WR is actually something that is often found in the mid rounds, you just have to scout and evaluate properly. Here's another way of looking at why WR in the 1st shouldn't even be considered an option. Looking only at players currently on the team, what position group would you feel strongest about 4 years from now? I'm not sure there is a better answer there than WR, as you have to think T-Mac is our best player on the team in 4 years, with Coker not far behind. Our OL is too old to be considered, my opinions on Bryce is well known, Hubbard will be done by then and the rest of the RB is an unknown, Off-ball LB is maybe our biggest need, we only have 1 legit safety, it's certainly not TE, and our 2nd best CB right now will be 33 by then.   Brown should still be a beast as he'll only be 31, but nobody else on the DL projects to be that good in 4 years.  Edge rusher with Phillips, Scourton, and Princely is probably the only other possible answer than WR. So yes, that fast/shifty type of WR is 100% a need of ours, but we have so many other bigger needs both in the immediate and future, that to me, taking a WR in the 1st for the 3rd year in a row and having hit on another WR in the same time frame, just makes zero sense both currently and looking into the future.
    • Laughing at Slayton (Mooney or Calvin Austin III), but telling me that Coker is the next best thing since sliced bread...You laughing at Theo Johnson in reference to our guys too? LOL No one in their right mind thinks Nabers is anything but a stud (definitely top 10 if not 5 potential). You do realize that Thomas was in a new system with a furst-time coach last year (with a questionable QB to boot)? And yet still, it's possible that he eclipses even T-mac (not saying that he will). They didn't even mention Travis Hunter. In any event, we're not in the top half. Draft another legit receiver, and we will be. 
    • Absolutely, very fair assessment of the team.
