Any of them. Too many chicken littles here. It’s a brand new staff, brand new system, rookie QB, this is the worst we’re going to be. And our defense is already upper tier. I’m not saying we’re going to be great this year and make the playoffs but all these whiney ass children predicting 0 wins or 2 wins aren’t built for pro sport fandom. We’ll get a few wins this year, take our lumps more often than not, and improve along the way.  It happens all the time, and very few teams are great immediately after a full turnover like we had. Most take time to become great. 

The main issue in my opinion are the fans can't trust the people running the show. I've seen some horrendous basketball being a denver nuggets fan for 21 years but the difference is the last 8 years regardless of results as a fan I knew we drafted well and made solid moves. That can't be said about the panthers, which in return leads fans to jump off the season quickly.

There are new people running the show, though. I was as vocal about anybody about how bad Rivera and Rhule were after their second years, but this was the new regime’s second GAME. And Rivera goes to show you can still have good seasons with a terrible coaching staff.  And trying to claim that getting Bryce was a bad move or pick is extremely premature. I was strongly a Stroud guy, but as soon as Bryce was announced on draft night he received my support and nothing he could do on the field after two games is going to change that. Even if he looks bad after the whole first year it would be too soon to give up. Not many QBs light the world on fire their first year. Cam and Luck were exceptions, not the rule.

    • 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.
