Sometimes I think Belichick does it just to be an a--hole

If you claim a player off of waivers he has to go on your active squad. A player has to clear the waiver wire before he can go to a practice squad.

True but he’s also brilliant and smarter than everyone else. This really makes the Panthers look like fools 

He is very good, but Brady leaving and immediately winning a Super Bowl while he has struggled without him is a little eye opening.

yep and honestly if I was a pats fan I'd be pretty damn concerned that their on-the-roster backup is Matt Friggin Corral who will have like a week in the system before the season starts. I would guess Belichick tries to pull some shenanigans with eventually activating Zappe and trying to get Corral on the PS but still, Jones is a highly questionable starter as is and has some injury history. Corral has played considerably worse in preseason against backups and 3rd stringers than Zappe has played in games that matter vs starters... Not that I think Zappe is that good either but they have serious issues at QB and on offense. Patricia was an easy blame last year but this year it's all on Belichick

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
