Could have said that in 2014 as well. I'm not saying we go 16-1 next year but mother fugers need to learn how to win. Burns Chinn brown dj, the most these guys have won is 5 fuging games. Go get it!!!

I like DJ as a person, but he's either criminally underused or defenses are just teeing off on him. We really need a top tier tight end to take pressure off of our receivers and help open up the passing game. Imagine a Hunter Henry type instead of Ian freakin' Thomas. He would demand safeties, corners, and linebackers to pay attention.

No. I'm not.

We're a bad team in a truly awful division. Winning this truly awful division doesn't change the reality that we're a bad team. Put any NFC South team in any other division and none of us are in playoff talks. None of us deserve to be. Whoever wins this awful division is just costing themselves significant draft assets and I could honestly see winning the division deluding Tepper into thinking he's got this all figured out now.

It would be a significant net negative for the future of the organization. Sorry to rain on the parade.

The year after 2014 was 2015, where we were __ that close to going undefeated. Our guys need to learn how to win and we are realistically only a few pieces away from being a 12-5 type team. Specifically speaking of safety, tight ends, and receiver.

That TE from ND is pretty amazing

That team that "had absolutely no business being there" won their first round matchup and lost to the NFC's representative in the Super Bowl that year. Not sure how that equates to having "absolutely no business being there."

are you referring to beating the Cardinals third string QB?

lol

With Sam at QB?

I mean I like that Wilks is basically (and purposely) keeping the offense on the ground and also rolling Sam out of the pocket (since we know he stinks when he stands there) but I would be very surprised if the Panthers manage to run the table and get in, and even more surprised if Sam helped get it done.

If these 2 past games have shown anything, it's that perhaps to some other team out there, Sam may be backup-material after all. 

(btw, he missed a sure-fire TD to  DJ in the endzone also)

Yeah, I don't have strong feelings either way. We aren't winning a Super Bowl, so I am just seeing what is up with each game.

If we win....

If we lose....

yeah...That's my feeling as well.

I still don't think we run the table but I'll watch just to see what happens.

You see, I have a problem with that. 

We were never as bad as the beginning of the season suggested. I'm not saying we were world beaters, but Rhule and some of his cohorts just weren't putting players in the best position to succeed. I think that it's pretty obvious by looking at the turnaround. I also fully believe that we would have probably have at least two or three more wins  if Wilks had been the coach at the beginning of the year as opposed to Rhule. 

Things could have been so different if Rhule hadn't driven is into a ditch. Perceptions would have been a lot different  as well.

      How Does This Happen? Another Ref Mistake in our Game

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      There is so much wrong with this post it's scary. First, as it's been explained to you, the Bills call was 100% correct, he never actually had control of the ball outside of literally less than a half second of time, you're stuck on super slow mo and still frames as your proof.   And second, the refs get almost zero replay assistance on the types of calls that make people say they are terrible at their jobs.  Replay assistance is for things like catches, in/out of bounds, fumbles, and ball placement.  Fans really don't care much about those things and if refs are right or wrong, because of the replay assistance (only comes into factor when it's too close to call so the original call stands) They don't get any assistance on the rest of the penalties that are always what fans get upset about and why people say refs are terrible.  Namely, things like holding and PI, both called and missed, which they get absolutely zero replay assistance for. It's those things I'm talking about where it's really tough for 7 refs to catch everything all the time.  They can only watch so many things at once, and that's if they even have a line of sight on the penalty, so many times the ref is watching the play but the player's bodies are between the ref and the penalty, particularly PI.

      Slowik was who I wanted as our HC when we hired Canales.  He clearly had an idea of how to maximize Strouds talent. sophmore slumps happen, but he fell off a cliff this year and I believe it can be due to getting rid of him.

      Could Morgan be eyeing Trey Hendrickson

      By Lurk21 · Posted

      Trey has plenty of tape standing up surprisingly. Guys like him have the technique and IQ to play the position for awhile. Cincy definitely  did him wrong and I'd gladly accept  him.  He would allow us to continue developing  Princely etc too.  Take an MLB or olineman with 19 or trade back and add more picks.  I'd assume free agent rushers would welcome the fact we have good coverage.
