I’ll say it. This team won’t make the playoffs for the next decade. 

If the offensive line is better and we can figure out a rotation where McCaffrey can go a full year the Panthers will make the playoffs this year, book it. I don't know that we will beat the Bucs or Rams but almost everyone else is fair game. I could see 9-8 or 10-7, maybe better.

Sam can be the man. He's never been protected. He reminds me of Alex Smith. How many years did he play for a terrible organization with terrible coaching and terrible line play before they finally figured it out? They rode it out with Smith because they knew, despite their losing, that he wasn't the problem. And guess what, it turns out that they were right. 

So let's have a little understanding of the nuance here: Darnold is not the issue here nor was he in New York.

There's always a chance right???

 

Look how long it took Warner and Jake to blossom.......

 

 

Plus we have Golden Corral in case of emergency. 

They just needed an opportunity to show they can play. Sam has had plenty of those…

CMC literally had a record breaking year a couple of seasons ago and we won 5 games.  Running backs do not matter a bit in todays modern NFL.

Cope to the max. This is unnecessary.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
