Raise your hand if you though Nick Sirianni would lead the Eagles to a Super Bowl when he was hired.

If two weeks rest doesn't make a big difference for Hurts I think they're gonna get destroyed in the big game. He low key threw the ball pretty poorly today. It didn't matter today but it'll matter in two weeks.

This is the same team that once had McCaffrey throw for a score run in for a score and catch a touchdown against mediocre competition and near nonexistent defense. Oh and lousy coaching. It was never sustainable. We as Panthers fans should have been able to recognize it better than anyone. This crash back to reality is in part due to the unfortunate injury of Purdy but moreso due to the fact they have not faced an all around well coached dominant team like the Eagles.

 Eagles didn't impress me at all. 49ers steamroll them with a healthy Jimmy G. Unfortunately, CMAC got in the same situation he had here when they had to start playing musical QB chairs.

Tonight was the first loss for Christian since he joined the 49ers. 13-0

Jimmy G would've been smothered by this defense. Agree to disagree sir.

Guess I'm pulling for the Bengals so we can move up one draft slot with those 49ers picks in the CMC trade.  Even with the loss today, the 49ers will have a better record than Cincy if they were to lose as well, but not better than the Chiefs with a loss.

Yep, we need Cincy to win

And for anyone thinking this is was of the worst NFC Championship implosions, you need to go back and watch the Panthers steam roll in 2005 only to fall on their face in the NFC Championship game.

You need good RBs to open up the passing game, average clutch QBs smart enough to keep the defense honest, and deep threats that open up space for the passing and running game.

No one player can take over a game. You need all 3 pieces on offense. Defense always has the advantage against an offense who can't bring all 3 pieces.

Bro, all of that is irrelevant when a team is down to their emergency 5th QB, who just so happens to be a RB lol Come on now, no team in NFL history would be able to overcome that and make it to a superbowl. Be realistic.

This is revisionist.  People called the Eagles pretenders for weeks.

They had to go through Danny Dimes and Josh Johnson to get to the Super Bowl. Name another team who had an easier entrance to the Super Bowl.

      Is AJ Dillon just a camp body?

      I think Dillon can be what Eric Shelton was supposed to be.

      Draft intel from ESPN’s Jordan Reid

      Yeah, no way he's an option at 19. We could honestly probably get him in the 3rd round.

      I mean, on some level I get it. They want to know 100% for sure before they either extend Bryce or move on. I imagine the logic behind it is that if they add another weapon and Bryce doesn't show he can be a franchise guy then we'll be in great position to draft another QB and slot him into an offense with 3 legit WRs, a good TE and a solid OL. I don't think it's as simple as the front office trying to "justify" an extension for Bryce. If they're not sold on Bryce then they know paying him big money is a recipe for disaster and at that point just trying to please Tepper isn't going to save their jobs in the long run if they're stuck with a QB we can't win with. I think Morgan and Canales are just as uncertain on Bryce as the fanbase is. They see his limitations, but they also see flashes where he has managed to overcome them and look like a potential franchise QB. I think they're trying to avoid Bryce becoming the next Baker Mayfield or Sam Darnold and want to do everything they can to give him what he needs to succeed so that if/when the time comes to move on from him nobody can say "the Panthers were the problem" if he goes elsewhere and succeeds. And if we do end up having to bring in another QB in a year or two if nothing else they will have the pieces around them as well and can hit the ground running. I also think drafting a WR in the 1st this year would be as much about missing on XL as it would trying to justify extending Bryce. Personally I think we need to just count ourselves lucky to have landed a legit #2 WR as an UDFA in Coker (which helps negate the miss on XL in the 1st) and try to find a good slot receiver in free agency or the 2nd-4th rounds while focusing on defense and the OL in the 1st round.
