And in the process miss one of the most talented QB drafts in recent memory. There’s so much talent coming out in 2024 it’s almost stupid. Imagine not trading DJ, sucking this year, and being in play for Caleb Williams. That’s what we fugged ourselves on. 

Yeah but that poo sometimes get said about some pretty disappointing classes in hindsight. 

I mean, has Sunshine down in Jacksonville really turned into a generational talent? Just one example of how those hype trains can sometimes get out of hand.

Guys, Bryce will be fine. I don't think that trade sets us back as badly as you all think. It only sets us back if he sh*ts the bed on actually working around the trade. 

And get outta here with that CMC talk. Paying that one player would have set us back more than the trade did. 

I am not a Fitterer apologist by any means, but I think the premise of this thread is a bit dramatic.

trade for Gilmore, did not resign. 
trade for CJ Henderson for a 3rd, dan Arnold. 
Trade for Shenault. 
Trade for Bryce. (2 1st, 2 2nds, and DJ Moore)

Traded CMC for a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th 

Rams offered 2 1st, 2nd for burns. Last year of contract, no extension. 

Got cute and took local fav CJ Horn over Pat Surtain. Tepper sucks and so does Fitterererer.

Jesus this fanbase sucks.

2 games into his rookie year and he's already been written off.

Unbelievable.

The knives are out for Reich too.  A few weeks ago the Huddle was completely in love with Reich and his dream-team of coaches.

Yes, this fanbase sucks.

I'm kind of on the other side as time goes by.

I honestly get packaging Moore to make a trade for a top QB.  It sucked, but you swallow that pill, take the gamble, if you think you found your guy. I understand the gamble.

What I still really don't understand, is we had a perpetual OPOY candidate, 26 years old, one of the biggest stars in the NFL, the best possible guy to have for a rookie QB, and the first step we take into a rebuild was giving him away to the top team in our own conference for a few mid-rounders.  No players in return, just a few draft picks.  

Someone, please explain that to me.  

I guess it made some sense at the time to collect assets, but we didn't blow the team up! We tried a soft reset.  The more that time goes by, I'm trying to understand exactly what we were trying to accomplish with that.

All that about CMC would make sense if the team didn't so dramatically improve in all phases after we got rid of him.  He was too much of a security blanket.

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
