The boss at practice today with eyes on the OL

If you're winning you can do whatever you want. But when you're 1-8 with the worst record in the NFL since you took over ownership maybe you shouldn't have your wife out there scouting the OL and chopping it up with your front office personnel. I mean just for optics' sake. It's a bad look for an awful organization. Or do and give everyone more fodder for jokes. Either way...

In the lone win it was overlooked- it took a mid-field late 4th down conversion to get in FG range.......Hell it seems in each successful drive during the games includes at least one 4th down conversion..... pathetic 

It was a pretty impressive drive by Bryce that if Stroud or Richardson did it that day, they'd be feted as heroes. But to have to just belabor for every yard, every play, I mean -- it worked out perfectly and Bryce made some great throws, but it still took forever to get there.

Plenty of folks myself included said Bryce looked the best he had all year in that game. But then we played some more games.

They're not ruining all football in the Carolinas, just the NFL. There's still college ball, which has been a lot more fun to watch than the NFL's Carolina team over the last seven years or so.

I'll still have that glimmer of hope last December, the one bit of thinking "this could be a playoff season" amid a sprawling shitshow of Tepper-fueled incompetence

I never had hope that they would make the playoffs last season. I preferred the Panthers losing in beatdowns, which should have killed the false hope, but sadly, that didn't happen.

    • Is it love when they say you reached for pick number 22 at 8? 
    • I wonder if the Steelers are setting themselves up for a tank year to get a QB? Trading talented head case Pickens, rumors that TJ Watt is on the trading block, that dumpster fire of a QB room, etc. It sure doesn't look like they're trying to win next year.
    • And this is how the proverbial ‘window’ is created. You go 2 CONSECUTIVE drafts where you have to hit on your first 2 picks, but you also strike gold on a few later round guys as well. Over the course of a couple years, you’ve loaded the team up with 5+ studs (on rookie contracts) who raise the level of play of everyone around them. If there is a franchise QB in place already, a legacy is now possible.  The TIMING of hitting on the right kind of talent is crucial. Hitting on a stud here and there every few years actually HURTS the team. Just by their high level of play, the team may win 2+ games they had no business winning, and really screw up draft position. Now the team is stuck in draft purgatory, constantly missing out on a top 5 pick.  This team is close to having the must have spots filled. QB (controversial), LT (controversial), WR, center (TBD), edge, DT and corner. These are the spots the real contenders are deep at.  Draft teachable, high motor, healthy 5 star performers from top 15 schools who show up to play every Saturday and play like they actually love the game. Just imagine the boost that hitting on 2 stud edge guys AND an LT over the course of 2 years.  Stop this dumbass wasted 2nd round pick from eastern Idaho state tweener project safety who had 1 good year after coming back from a season ending knee injury, but he impressed at the combine…. And this is exactly what this draft was.
