I can't tell you how pissed I would be if we lost to New Orleans.

I can't begin to describe how pissed I'll be. I might take a break from the huddle for a while if this happens. Then again, the server would probably be busy for a while like it always is except this time it might be busy for the next 24-48 hours causing the whold board to collapse.

going to lose this game....simple as that.

If we lose this game Fox's butt should be packing. If I had the team he had last year and went 8 & 8 I would apologize to the team and the people of Charlotte and clear out instead of begging the big guy for his job back.

He has reached his self serving goal for the year and now the players will have to lead the team or it's over. This could go on for years. I saw this when I ran a newspaper for a lot of years and we were called the 2nd and 10 team because we always ran the same play on 1st down. We got the coach fired (finally) and in the 2nd year we went undefeated for the 1st time in the history of the county with an offensive coordinator that kept the defenses off balance. To heck with running an offense with coaches who have always been on the ground, they're afraid to fly.

I want a Superbowl for Richardson before it's too late. If we get it the team will have to lead the way and let Fox take the credit and no doubt he would.

Win or lose on Sunday and things aren't that bad. I will be upset that we won't be home for the playoffs and worse Atlanta wins the division if we lose. But still we will be playing teams that we can beat. Our offense is doing well and our defense will hopefully get healthy. It would be great to win given that we can and should beat anyone at home. Not sure about on the road. Still the Giants game showed me that we can play well in big games on the road. And we have surely won some big games in the playoffs in 2003 and 2005.

It sounds like you guys are ready for the world to end..

Why is this even a thread?

Why don't you start a thread that says "I can't tell you how happy I'd be if we beat New Orleans" and then continue to tell us how elated you would be if we won.

Point well taken - I'm behind the players to the end and will be tearing this house down if they win. I'm just frustrated at the coaching and play calling. I don't see any difference in this new guy and Henning. It's like running your business and trying to have low expenses rather than high sales. It's smarter to take a few chances and try and score with our dynamic offense than to groundpound into a defense prepared for that and use your defense for an entire half to protect a small lead. Hate to quote a movie but "attitude is a reflection of leadership".

Hope we win big!

We goto 0-0 in the playoffs. I don't care as long as we play good ball after the playoffs start.

Losing two in a row isn't the best way to start your Playoff run. You want to go in running, not stumbling. Yes, yes, the Giants game wasn't a blowout...but if this one is (don't think it will be), I'd be worried about a possible three straight road games to get to the SB.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
