Being aggressive in free agency and trades wins.

The Bucs and now Rams are proving that whole “only built through the draft , superstar teams don’t win” narrative wrong.

 

All those years we wasted with a prime Cam, we were the cheapest team free agency. We never went after big names, we never we traded for anybody outside of Olsen. Bargain bin Gettleman set this franchise back lord knows how long.

And when Gettleman decided to spend a fortune it was for Matt Kalil.

True statement, but it's not that simple. There are a lot of other moving parts. We must have the cap space, the FO building towards a plan, the coaching staff being able to execute that plan and utilizing players to their strengths for starters...

The salary cap is a myth and the whole cap space for the future is also a bs excuse. The windows in the NFL are so small you better strike while the iron is hot, we missed our chance cause he had a clown of a GM

Look at these pitch and catch pass heavy playoff games. Especially in the 4th quarter when you really need to air it out. That's the NFL now. Your QB should be the best player on your team. Building a mega team around him means you're shooting for the SB or bust.

We have no QB, and a bad o-line. Any defense can be exploited, so I'm not concerned about the defense. We could be bad for at least the next 3 seasons with our current plan in place.

I said it back then, but Gettleman had a full on fan club on here that thought he was the second coming of Bills-era Polian.

He completely blew our best opportunity to win a Superbowl to date.  We should've had at least a 3 year window to contend for a championship annually...  and I said it when he left that he set us back at least 5 years even after his departure.  

Luckily for us, Rhule is setting us back another 5-10.  Great times.

If we had Smitty on that 2015 Superbowl squad it would have been an all out brawl before we were disrespected like we were. That was on Gettleman. Not many will agree but had they kept Greg Hardy that game may have been different.

      Rams since you beat them already and they are 0-2 on the road against NFC South teams.

      Seahawks or Rams

      By Pantherxtreme · Posted

      Let's say we take care of business against the Bucs and/or the Falcons take care of the Saints and we lock that 4th seed for the playoffs. Who do we root for this Sunday in the NFC West matchup with Seahawks at San Francisco winner takes the NFC West division. A Seahawks win would mean we face the Rams at home or with a 49ers win we host the Seahawks again.  Which opponent would most prefer? In the earlier Rams game we won primary due to turnovers specifically Mike Jackson pick-6 in combination with a good running game with Chuba and Rico whereas we kept the Rams offense off the field and Bryce was able to connect on two big 4th down throws for touchdowns. However when the Rams offense was on the field they pretty much got whatever they wanted, Williams and Corum gashed us in the run game, and we had no answer for Devonte Adams. Granted whe were missing some pieces on defense with Horn and Moehrig. Against Seattle our defense held it's own for the most part, it was our offense and turnovers which aided in the Panthers loss.  Seattle was the most stingy, best tackling defense the Panthers have played all season, and when we turned Darnold over we didn't do much with it.  The offense had no answers for what the defense was throwing at them and apparently were caught off guard by the amount of man coverage the Seahawks played.  With all that who do you think would be the better matchup the 2nd time around? I trust Stafford far more than I do Darnold, both running games are on par with each other, of the defenses Seattle has the dominant unit.  I personally prefer Seattle again, that would mark their 3rd consecutive road game, we've just played them, so we know exactly what to expect, and I feel Caneles should be able to come up with a better scheme to counteract what the Seahawks defense was doing, and we may be able to trip Darnold up, I don't want to try and win another shootout against the Rams.

      I remember watching him at bama and thinking he throws a lot of wobbly non spiral balls that have very little velocity. Knew it would be a real problem in the NFL and it is.
