Buffalo to rest most starters (including Allen) vs Carolina in Preseason finale

The way Rhule decided to handle the preseason is frustrating to me and probably a lot of fans.     We (and his staff) won't get the chance of watching starters v starters in a preseason game environment.    If our starters struggle vs Buf backups, expect a poo storm in the media for 2 weeks.     This is the worst case scenario (outside of an injury).

 

I was really hoping to get a chance to evaluate our team against one of the best starting offensive/defensive units in the league.  

 

End rant.

Ya'll have your fun all the way up to the Baker, Baker, Baker Bowl ya hear!?

Matt Corral wasn't Kenny Pickett therefore of no immediate value. I'm going to watch the defense this year. Bathroom breaks and snack breaks in offense.

When a team REFUSES to develop a rookie QB (on the field) it makes everything less exciting.

Yay! Teddy/Sam/Baker, Baker, Baker

His record and current trajectory are silly. Have you been watching this man the last 2+ seasons?! From disaster to what? Mediocre? We'd oddly and slummingly will accept mediocre right now because it's good o'l Matt Rhule?! C'mon man! Just a estimate but I would not be surprised if 80% of teams would have escorted this dude and his belongings out already. He's rich. He'll be fine.

For all that $$$$$$$ he provides little value if you then have to get rid of guys and hire shadow HCs.

Should have gave Jim Harbaugh(.695 NFL win percentage) that $$$$, more even, now having learned not to hire college coaches without NFL HC experience.

Well, I am not sure it was the right decision, but then I think it really doesn't matter that much.  Fans complained last year about the snaps that the qb's were getting, and yet Darnold actually looked decent in the first few games but got worse as the season went on.  In reality, those snaps, or lack thereof, made little or no difference to last year's outcome.

    • It puts more pressure on being right, I always feel trading back is the move 97/100 times. There are times where you fall in love and if that guy is only 7 spots away and the cost is only a 6th or pick swap......why not?? so long the cost is low, Im more willing to do so.  Still one of the best teams at trading back and they torn apart the Panthers on those trades; Pats. You still have to pick the players, that's what happens. In theory you should also add picks, but it does get to point of eight 3rd rounders or two late 1st and a 2nd?? I mean every draft is different, so the talent maybe not fall off a cliff after pick 50. Case by case deal, but vastly I prefer to trade back.....another curve if you trade back and the scouts/coaches have not planned for it. You have to be ready and know the spot you are trading too (everyone). Just like trading out of 1st round two weeks before the draft, that hurts your team as they have been focused on pick 10 and now its wait until pick 42....

    • IDK, just I know these mock drafts are time "wasters" and even more before FA cause that does change a huge portion of the needs. I think Panthers are in on Lloyd, but just like Milton Williams if the numbers get too high they will change course and still sign one of the lesser ILB. I've also seen reports Panthers want boom back as well, but as STer/backup.   Personally Ive put Wallance in the Ickey, Brooks zone....... Acting like he's not on the team and if he shows out during OTAs, mini, and TC GREEEAT!!! I feel Panthers need to sign at least one and draft 1-2....hell even add another Bam-like UDFA in the UD pool too. Trade is on the table, there have been many trades than past years......   Given the team history, the LB corp is saddest ever. Still the league isnt paying ILB and Panthers finally got with that trend. I do feel Evero wants a IBL that can blitz and everyone wants one able to pass cover.  I feel no matter what, Panthers will draft one in the mid rounds and add a couple in the UDFA class.
