Would this be considered tanking?

It's just a poorly run team. They don't have to tank they just have to be themselves.

Even if they get a great QB they will still run him into the ground. I wonder if we will ever see another Manning type move where a prospect says 'nope' again. They really should sometimes...

I like Jeff Saturday a lot (UNC) but it was a mistake to make him the head coach and he should not be retained. Mind boggling move from Irsay. 

if it was a decision made after 1pm it's pretty much the result of him being drunk. after 2pm it's the result of him doing coke. afternoons are not the time that he should be making any decisions.

Never chalk up to malice what is probably just incompetence.

Both are absolutely true.  As I have said to the "we should tank" crowd, you can never engineer more losses than some bad teams naturally will produce. 

For the umpteenth time, the year the Dolphins went all-in on tanking, they wound up drafting fifth, not first. It just doesn't work out the way people think.

This clip has a Three Stooges look to it.  All they needed was for someone in blue to pick the ball up and run it into the wrong end zone.  You really can't orchestrate this level of buffoonery.

      The Cavalry is Coming

      I'll be honest.  I'm not sure I want to see any those guys returning right now given what others are presently doing.... minus Coker.  Hubbard returning likely messes the run game up (I mean, it's going to come down regardless but he still), Tremble and Evans actually are doing well, Corbett seems to make us worse up front, and the D has made some strides.  I'd like to just keep that whole lot on the shelf this week.

      Ikem Ekwonu is slated to GET PAID

      By Basbear · Posted

      I don't think people know that Icky is still only 25 years old. Panthers signed UDFAs older this year and drafted DJ Johnson. Heres a fact, a deep fact.... Its easier(much) to find a good-great QB than good-great LT. Another fact there's only 12-15 true LTs and the others are larping as LT.  SO....(I'm not a fan btw)......you nearly must resign him at all cost even with him being around the 12th best at times. Its the hardest spot to fill and he's still awful young with 4 years as a pro. Carolina already got 4 years of "cheap" service as well, that's invested time and effort.  The fan-side of me hopes he signs some top 5 at best top 3 big money deal. Just the cap keeps growing and LTs, young LT with experience are rrrrrrare and unique. Tag him if needed and tag him again, then trade him. I think he enjoys being/living in NC.  I hope he's stays on a team friendly deal, but those are soooo rare these days.  Only two options- pay him whatever, even if it's top $$$$$(uggggghhhh..) or tag him for 2027 and keep trying to pay. Worst outcome is trading him for couple 1s, 3s, and 5th maybe a player too.

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By CRA · Posted

      I always loved DJ Moore.  I don't see him wanting to comeback here.  He seems to be tired of inconsistent QB play and you finally see that bubbling over in Chicago.  or maybe he just doesn't like the people.  He actually seemed fine with Fields.....and lobbied for them not to draft Caleb.  So maybe it's just a Caleb issue (and I think Caleb might have tons of baggage/issues that rub folks wrong)
