For the Anti-Tankers: Can you provide a legitimate reason that this team should not have tanked last year?

Bullshit. Shitty GMs keep their job all the time on losing teams. If Fitterer had a 3-14 team last year, he would still have his job and you know it. And why would an owner that is okay with tanking fire his GM that is facilitating the moves? That doesn't make any sense.

But you go ahead act like you're holier than thou and send the organization some more emails to the organization that they will send straight to the trash bin.

shitty GM's keep their jobs all the time? who? how long are we talking? how do we differentiate a shitty GM vs one trying to tank? what if they are shitty and try to tank and then just keep looking shitty?

do you see how fugging ridiculous this sounds?

man oh man this season has really scared away the logical posters, this is all we have left, kids that think tanking is real. my lord man...

I got an early flight to Seattle to watch the boys play this weekend, I'm out. Hopefully the Panthers don't try to "tank" too hard. I'm hoping for a win. Ya'll can hang out here and say Bryce is faking an injury and Dalton is playing because we're "tanking". Have a blast!!!!

Uh, I don't know maybe look at the team in Charlotte and tell me that GMs can't sustain many losing seasons

This is what I’m talking about. Making up literal fake arguments that people haven’t said.

Unless you're in your 40s and up, I'm probably older than you. 

You just have no true rebuttal outside of namecalling. Clown

Just thought about this, but just curious. 

 

If we took the second half of the year team that finished 4-2, with Foreman and the run focus, and just swapped Darnold for Bryce…do we look better right now? 

I don’t know, but it’s interesting (if futile) to think about. 

We will likely win a few at the end of the year again. Like last year, our second half schedule was easy and that was also when our division was worse.

I wish we left Rhule alone to lose more games. Losing Moore and all those picks does suck because it feels like unless we actually pick up a solid 3rd or 5th round WR that surprises, we don’t have enough draft capital to make up for our issues. We don’t have the drafting ability to make up for not having picks. The Rams seem to have used late picks to get a new WR starter and RB starter that look more competent than our FA starters.

    • I get what you are saying. I'm just saying we made it to the win, we should have a bit of class and not dogpile on the QB because his stat line wasn't great. His stat lines weren't great for almost his entire pro career, but this time, we got a win. Give him a breather.  The team cleared the bar. In the end, that's all that matters. Do it enough times and well, good things happen.  We've shat the bed enough times with good-ish QB play. It's not like we've been regularly to the playoffs even with our best performing QBs over the years. Heck, Matt Stafford was a helluva QB in Detroit for a long time with nothing to show for it. Steve Bartowski was a great QB back in the day, but in 20 years of watching I saw one playoff game for the Falcons. Heck, even Dan Marino spent most of his illustrious career on a lousy Dolphins team.  And yet, Tampa's first Superbowl ring was with the esteemed Trent Dilfer at the helm. Sometimes it goes like that. 
    • I don't care what they tell me. Its what they actually do that matters. Coaches and GM's say crap all the time to keep fan interest. They are always trying to sell you something. 
    • But you have to separate the 2 things in order to move forward.  Its okay to enjoy winning and its also okay to be critical of what is happening.  Coaches do it why cant we?   Also they have to be thinking next off season, next year all in real time.  They are applying what is working, where help is needed and how to get better and make plans for that.   I am weirdly confident that Dan and Dave are seeing what we are seeing and will adjust.   The wildcard however are the teppers
