Campen was a fine add.  I still largely look at the top of the food chain if I were to rank the 32 NFL staffs. 

I at least think I give Snow decent credit.  I don’t go around trashing him.   And I’m not shy about doing those things, I’ve always said he has been the key to Rhule’s success.  Which he clearly had in college.  But I wouldn’t call him a great NFL DC. 

I think the staff is improved.  But I consider it bottom 3rd of the league.   So I wouldn’t call it great. 

Fair enough, since we aren't going to know one way or the other until we start playing for keeps. 

Potentially

I was pretty excited about getting Campen. He's well respected around the league and has a solid resumé. 

If there's a downside to him, it's that the last two or three head coaches he's worked for have all been fired after one season with him.

(granted, some would say that's not necessarily bad) 😐

As far as Snow, i kind of feel like the flipside of what was said. In my opinion, it's been the talent we have on the defense carrying him while his schemes are weak.

I get the sense that we were bested in individual drills but proved better in team competition.

Not necessarily a bad thing...

I walked away with that, too.  It's a team sport, so I'll take that as a win. 

The Pats have had a lot of successful teams in the last 20 years that might not have won a lot if individual drills, but put them on the field together and the total was a lot greater than the sum of the parts.  Not a bad situation to be in.

Speaking of coaching staff, I get the impression that the  lesson Belichick may learn this year is just how good Josh McDaniels was.

(or at the very least that Matt Patricia isn't exactly on the same level)

When this commercial came out... my boss at the time's name was Michael Dumarr. However, I called him Mr. Dumbass. This was the only timein my life where it was forgiveable to call my boss Dumbass.

I've said a thing or two in prior jobs that I could have (or arguably should have) been fired for.

I thought McDaniels was probably the best choice in the last round of coaching interviews.

I'm not absolutely certain he's going to be a great head coach, but I feel pretty comfortable saying then in the OC transition from him to Matt Patricia, there's going to be...a dropoff 😕

A lot of whining about our beat reporters. Personally I think we have a lot of good writers, Joe is great over at the Athletic, Ellis is great at the Observer, Panthers.com has a lot of well written pieces.

What we don’t have is the “breaking news” crowd.

I take writers over breaking news tweets any day, but maybe I’m old school.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
