At least the Saints are putting all that empty cap space to use after missing on Watson. The Panthers just sitting on their millions. Are we trying to handicap ourselves going into the season?

I would be very surprised if there is not a very strong order from Tepper not to spend that cap. I'll be hard enough as it is to get a decent new head coach once Rhule is gone, but with lots of cap and a promise of a last say over the roster at least you can make a case.

Didn't Tepper already come out and say just a few weeks ago that Thule is safe this season plus next season and maybe the season after. I don't think Tepper has one single intention of firing our idiot coach anytime soon so I don't think it is about attracting a coach here having cap.

No need to get nervous. We already have a mediocre, unreliable wide receiver on the roster.   This box is checked.

He said it takes 5 years to build a winner, maybe 6. This is just a sad attempt at managing expectations after his flop with Rhule but IMO doesn't necessarily mean Rhule himself is guaranteed to get that long.

He is gaming us. If we start to win this statement makes all the sense. "It was just a matter of time"

If we suck, Rhule is gone and we will get the "You always want to believe but what my business taught me is that sometimes you got to be willing to take a loss and move on".

It’s a waste to just spend cap space you can rollover. We wasted $100M plus and a bunch of draft picks trying to compete the last two years and got 5 wins a year. Maybe the dolts finally realized we need to develop a team and day 2 picks are important and an OL is important and wasting money on mediocre vets doesn’t work.

Signing a couple decent OL (instead of shitty ones) made sense. Splurging on Mathieu and Landry does not.

This is the right path.  If Corral isn’t the answer they can take another swing at qb next year.  Build the core and we will get there.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By GOAT · Posted

      5 straight completions in the 4th quarter to get into the red zone and then score a stand up rushing TD and celly in one of the best defenses faces to bring the score within 1 possession against the super bowl champs is "stunned" to you?

      yes, if you read what I said - that was due to his record breaking 245 yard 4th quarter performance in garbage time when the Seahawks were already celebrating. If Bryce puts up big numbers in the 4th quarter, people like you are quick to call it garbage time stats but seem to get selective when other QB's do it because it doesn't fit your narrative.  also, I'm logical enough to admit that Drake is a great QB and his performance had a lot to do with his protection, play calling, and other aspects. The game does not fall completely on the QB. Just like how the Panthers were still in the game vs Seattle until Horn's penalty changed that. It is a team sport, so many factors, players, refs, coaches are involved and it only takes one thing to change the game. the obsession with Bryce is just nauseating at this point and if you pay attention on here, it's the same 10 users quoting and pieing each other. it's super weird and everywhere else you go, opinions on Bryce are trending upwards. the way the season ended, the vibe at the stadium, the performance, should have everyone excited about this next season. Idk, maybe I just look at life and my entertainment outlets differently than others.
