We're probably 100x more likely to lose out than to win out. We are the worst team in the NFL by a mile. Every team that you listed views us a glorified bye week. Yeah, odds say we'll win 1 or 2 just out of sheer luck. But we're not even close to the level of any of the teams you listed and would be lucky just to stay close in the second half of most of them.

IFFFFF Horn comes back and can stay healthy, that drastically improves our D. If Young can keep getting better each game as he has, it's very possible we can win out. Do I think we do? No, but it's possible.

heck, we should trade Horn.  We can't pay him.  We aren't on schedule to do anything that matters next year either.

No.  This team does not have enough top tier talent, on either side of the ball, to win out.

Players like TMJ, Mingo and Chark would have to start playing like we expected them.  Chark can't catch a cold, TMJ can't win a contested throw and Mingo is still trying to figure out how to play in the NFL.  Theilan is the only bright spot on our receiving Corps.  Sanders is a bust at running back mostly because he pitter patters to the line.  Hubbard at least runs like he has a purpose and really is our only decent RB, however when Sanders is healthy he gets the bulk of the carries.   

Defensively, I think we just don't have the players for the scheme we are running.  We are getting gashed on just about every running play.  Our best DBs have more splinters from the bench than they have playing time.  

To win out we HAVE TO get Young some help.  Our defense has to improve A LOT.

I have always been optimistic but this season it just seems too much for us.   Sadly, Chicago is going to have a top 5 pick, plus their own top 5 pick in 2024 draft.  Our only bright spot barring a trade of Burns is a top pick in round two.

      Round 7: The Carolina Panthers select LB Jackson Kuwatch (Miami of Ohio)

      By bigginpc · Posted

      He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.

      This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.

      Round 5: The Carolina Panthers select C Sam Hecht (Kansas State)

      I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
