No it wasnt prompted. I think someone in the upper deck got it going cause it started there. Cam would lead the wave back in the day so MAYBE a player did but I think it was just fans

That’s rare.  But if it did randomly start it was the upper deck folks for sure.

I know Denver is bad this year, but what a job Wilks has done with our defense.  He may not get a job as HC next year but he'll at least have multiple offers for DC

I’ll give him this - he called a fake punt and used timeouts at the end of the half to try to go for more points.  If he can learn to be more aggressive like this each week, then I’ll warm up to him as a HC.

I guess I'm in the minority, I'm enjoying this game so far.

And it's fun to enjoy winning when you're not a shitty team not needing a QB. This win is going to put us out of any chance of having a difference maker. Half assed rebuilding once again.

if sam fuging darnold wins 5 in a row... I'll be... I don't even know if shocked describes it.

He won't win 5 in a row, but he might just be competent enough to win a couple more. 

They do need to take the training wheels off though - a good HC goes for the killshot here. Wilks is just trying to bleed the clock.

    • I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

    • We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
