Maybe the lowest at the moment.  But brother it could get much worse and most likely will before it gets better. Its going to take a better coach and some luck finding a qb before they started to climb out of this hole. But I hope they beat Atlanta's ass twice a season if nothing else.

It’s def gonna get worse.  Tepper either over reacts and does something that cripples the team further, or he loses interest in his new toy because it doesn’t work right.  That would lead to purgatory.

How? Sam Darnold is our starting QB with no hope for the future? We have a top pick in a draft with all time shitty QBs. It’s like God himself hates the Panthers 

It’s gonna take having a bad season next year to get on track.

We aren’t gonna tank because we can’t in Rhule’s mind but we have a tough ass schedule next year so there is that.

Naw he cares. He’s not gonna mortgage the future for someone not named Deshaun. We will look at QB options but that’s because Rhule has to so he can save his ass.

Whatever. I’ve been with this team since the literal beginning. I’m very close to checking out right now. Idk. I need to step away for a minute. Y’all be good.

The first thing you said disproves the last thing you said.

Rhule should already be gone.

Don’t worry. We’ll have a top 1-10 pick every year for the foreseeable future.

Firing Coaches every two years makes you not an attractive place sometimes you have to play the long game. 

This is not your everyday situation.  It’s literally detrimental to the team.  It’s effecting which players want to come here.  That’s not the time to worry about perception.

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
