We also let them win.

They are just better at letting us win than we are at letting them win.  

hilariously we won because despite being unable to complete a pass, Darnold was able to use his legs to get us into FG position where Dalton could not.

And got blown out by a legit team in there, blown out to a baaaaad rams team, destroyed by old ass Brady who was meh for weeks before.

But we won against a team throwing the game on a last second kick to get to 6-6 vs a 5-7 record if they actually tried there at the end lol.

Wilks ain't it.

 Wilks was coaching with a roster full of Baylor and Temple Rejects. We were the laughingstock of the league and always #32 in the power rankings. I think he did a great job with where he picked up at.

All go never phucking Quit Sammy Franchise!!!

oh that's right.   That was actually a GWD for Sam.

He's pretty good at pissing off half the fanbase here.

 

It's a good thing that this win doesn't get us lower than 9 at least.

Wilks wasn’t staying regardless of how they looked today

But yeah, there’s a few of these games. But at the end of the day we had a chance to move up 1-2 spots

It's too bad we didn't, but you can't force the players to give up. Darnold, as much as he sucked, basically willed this team down the field on the final drive. As terrible as that may have been for our draft position, I don't really care that much anymore either way - I think we'll get a good player and we'll be in for a bit of development. Maybe we trade up, but I kinda doubt it. I don't think that changes if we were 7, 8, or 9 either.

    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
