A loss to the Saints on MNF would be as bad a start as the Panthers can get.

The Saints have talent but they are not some scary juggernaut. Drew Brees is gone. Now is the time to step up and dick slap these divisional opponents. I'm tired of hearing this bs mantra from folks who wanted immediate results from Rhule now crowing about a rebuild. This conference is weak AF. The Bucs are 2-0 with Baker fuging Mayfield. Do not make excuses for more ineptitude from our front office. If we can't compete in this weaker edition of the current NFL hire someone who can do better.

Tepper is the problem. These HC's we hire are his decision.

 

Not sure why he thought is was a good idea to hire a HC who was fired. The excuses has to stop. We blaming everybody but Tepper.

I’m more concern about handing a top 5 pick to Chicago 

I would like to give them a lower pick just because it means we had a good season.  I dont understand why people would care what pick we give them, we can't use it anyway.  If we have a bad season, I'd rather have a high second round pick

I have been blaming Tepper since he hired a wildly unqualified college coach who didn’t even beat a ranked team to a fully guaranteed $60m contact.

It's year one of a rebuild 

I really can't stand this narrative that people have built up in their heads to accept a poor season that gives the Bears a top pick in a QB heavy draft.  We were 7-9, in the playoff hunt in the final week of the season, improved the coaching staff and kept the same starters or got better at every position except #1 WR.

That's not a rebuild, it's just year 1 of a new staff/QB combo, but given what we had last year, it's still an improvement.

If this really was year 1 of a true rebuild, you don't trade away your next year's first round pick.  I'd have had no issues with a rebuild, but if that's what we were doing, we did it terribly.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
