Before Brady, Tampa had 9 losing seasons out of 10. They call it the Decade of Depression, and being anchored in Buccaneer Bay. We can come up with our little name for ours too. Maybe the Den of Desperation?

Ive said for months 2024 is the season, now with these holes and these moves that havent panned out, man I just dont know.   All of a sudden to me this is becoming a tear it to the studs rebuild.  We got a lot of guys due some big money and a bunch of holes all around

Nothing we can do but sit back and see how it unfolds.  Hopefully Young and the offense will look a lot better in the second half of the season and give us some optimism going into 24 with some cap space to spend.  I do think we have too many holes to pay Burns.  He will probably get flipped if we keep sucking and we will have a first plus some in return.  Not the Rams offer, but that's a sunk cost.

I'm fairly certain they stated we would start off slow, but see improvements towards the end of the year.   That was after the preseason.  Remember @CamWhoaaCam got mad and you were telling him that our staff is saying what you were saying all offseason?  As for the offseason quotes, I wouldn't put too much weight into any of that.  

I didn't get mad.lol

 

I already admitted he was right btw.

 

One thing about me if im wrong I will openly admit it. I even apologized to him personally.

Not like MAD mad, but I guess I should have used the word annoyed or frustrated at Reich for basically saying we aren't a playoff team before the season started.  I wasn't calling you out, just reminding him of a conversation where our coach said it was going to start off rough this year.

Yeah annoyed is a better word. I rarely get mad anymore at Panthers football. Tepper has shown me he's not capable of making the right hires. It is what it is.

 

While we are on the topic of me being wrong, I must admit Bryce Young also doesn't look that great so far. Hopefully he turns it around as the season goes.

Yup. If he's doing that well, let Bryce spend a season taking mental reps. Rodgers rode the bench for 3 years. Worked out pretty well for him, and the team.

Rodgers wasn't a #1 overall pick that was acquired through trading away a bunch of assets.

Trading up to 1 to take your guy and letting him sit for a year is asinine...unless he's a generational talent.... but then you wouldn't need to bench him for a year.  At that point you might as well just suck for another year and potentially take someone else at the top of the next draft.   

This screams of a GM realizing he needs to make some splashy moves because he no longer has a lame duck coach to pin the troubles on and he needs to show some results ASAP, and I guess he suckered Frank to go along with his plan? I mean unless we have officially become the Browns Frank would have surely gotten more than one year to show some progress on the rebuild without trading away everything to take Bryce, but I'm not so sure Fitz would have the same leeway at this point.

OR maybe he rolled his damn ankle and we don't need him to play through an injury that can get worse because we aren't making a playoff run this year.  Sometimes the simplest answer is the right now.

Maybe…

HC can’t tell you the play…which is ok

But he also can’t tell you what type of injury. High ankle anything….which is okay.

But he also had Bryce up on his ankle yesterday despite labeling him a DNP.  And if you starting QB is hurt and you wanted to get him healthy to play that is odd….which is okay. 

And they had Bryce hoofing it all over BOA today,  fat dudes and punters even take carts to the field.  Bryce hoofing it.   Injured QB? Doesn’t seem like they are treating it as a big deal.  Or trying to get him off it. 

There was already an argument they were on a quick path to ruining his development after 2 weeks.  Pumping the breaks with no injury was already the path they were looking down.  The O to date hasn’t been enough to support developing a rookie QB.   If you are legitimately a Bryce fan and want him to develop….you should take issue with what this team has done around him.

      Canes Vs Flames 9pm

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      The Canes got curb-stomped by a 9-12 team last night. I have no confidence they can beat a 10-12 team with a better D than Edmonton. That being said, as others have pointed out, the Canes are streaky and there's no better time than now. As for everything else that's not happening with this team- far as I'm concerned it's the best team in the NHL on paper. Problem is, the game is not played on paper. Dundon and Waddell can start tearing this whole thing down for a retool tomorrow and I'd be okay with it. My trade bait list: Necas, Drury, Martinook (UFA). Pesce, DeAngelo. Both Raanta and Kochetkov. I don't see Orlov going anywhere with a $7.5M salary for the next 2 years, otherwise, I'd add him to the list as well. The first 4 guys on that list could bring in some serious talent.

      It's an organizational problem

      It’s not but it happens. I read how Doug Pederson had to sit in weekly meetings with the eagles owner and Howie Roseman during their superbowl year going over every decision made during the previous game. The gist was the eagles were a complete sh@t show, but lucked into a good GM and coach.

      That'll be fun to watch. Very few linemen - even elite blue chippers - show up on campus ready to play at the P5 level as true freshmen. Deion will probably throw him out there on day one and he'll look like Byron Bell.
