Has to play with your mind to watch Jefferson, Chase, and Burrow all ball out while you struggle to even get an opportunity. 

And for all the stupidity we dealt with regarding the former head coach atleast I can say this:  

He kept TMJ on the 3rd team, which I'm assuming actually helped his chemistry with PJ. 

When asked who was most improved on the team this offseason McCaffrey answered TMJ. I refuse to believe this is a Dwayne Jarrett situation. 

I think he was in Rhule's doghouse for whatever reason. Right next to Bozeman, Higgins and Robinson.

Rhule claimed it was all about competition but only 1st or second string really competed for the starting job. The bottom tier players never got a chance & reps held to a minimum. No way young guys or a diamond in the rough would be developed under Rhule. Granted TMJ was hurt early on but he never got chance once he got healthy.

Believe it or not TMJ was the higher recruit out of JJ, Chase and himself.... Lots change, but it was pure tardness to inactive him by the looks of things right now. He looks like a capable WR, many other should have been inactive while the O struggled....

No I can believe it. Looking at what he did at LSU he's definitely a top 10 WR in school history. Iirc he was #1 ranked recruit coming out of highschool and even Jefferson admitted TMJ was the better player between the two. Has little to do with how they'll end up as pro's but the talent is there. 

Underutilized talent but thats not his fault. And he's only in his 2nd year but its entirely possible he has that 3rd year skill jump also. Even if he doesn't, he needs to play so we atleast know what we have at the position.

These days I don't trust Rhule's judgement what so ever and everyone needs reevaluated now that we took the trash out. TMJ is a player who needs a major relook and I hope he shines in his rebirth as a player. With Rhule gone I see just how much he held back the entire franchise including players. I'm very curious to see how we do the rest of the season. Is this a Superbowl team? Nope, but I do believe they are better than what has been shown so far. Every player needs another look now that the team disease (Rhule) has finally been crapped out like yesterday's stale lunch turd from this franchise.

I hope he continues to get more looks.  He was my favorite coming out of camp last year and was just baffled he didn't see much time.

Tremble had a nice catch too.  Though it was his only pass throw to him.  It's going to ruin the Fitterer haters too if Marshall, Tremble and Hubbard start to ball out and join Horn and Christensen as good picks.

In all fairness the Hubbard pick wasn't Fitt. If you remember correctly it was our former poo coaches wife Mrs Rhule.

I said earlier this year not to blame the players and instead blame Rhule. Evaluations could never be had under Rhule due to how incompetent he was.

Wait, really?  They tried to change the way the dude runs?  My god amateur hour

To be fair he definitely looked slow and unexplosive on the route he had his first catch on.  I think that's his biggest problem.  Hopefully he becomes solid though.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
